    Every part of an organization must run in perfect alignment and at peak efficiency to stay ahead. However, that same organization must also be able to regenerate itself: to seek bold new directions that offer new opportunities for motivation and growth, be they new product categories, new markets, new partnerships, new processes, or new organizational structures.

    The in school mentor program is fantastic. I'm often away on weekends so the traditional 3 hour Big Brother program wasn't going to work for me. However, the in school program is perfect. I spend one lunch hour per week with my little brother and it's often the best hour of my week. Kory and I have become close friends and over the years have had a lot of laughs. He's an amazing kid that has made my life better.

  • STAND OUT: How To Stop Cold Calling And Use Social Media For B2B Sales

    -

    In 2011, I quit cold calling for new business development and replaced it with social media prospecting.

    In short, it worked.

    The result of this three year project is this 33 page case study that will tell you exactly how I used social media to generate $320,000 in new business revenue and calculate a 480% ROI.
