"Mike and I were introduced to one another in 2021 by the founders eGateway Capital.

Mike helped me design our GTM roadmap and define the strategic partnership language needed in our clients master services contracts. He also trained our sales team on what we called "The Right to Win" to include the growth mindset needed to negotiate a larger share of our merchants' logistics budgets. Mike's GTM leadership experience and ability to make a positive impact quickly was recognized by me and my team"

"I have known Mike since 2016 when we were peers at Quotient Technology.

Leverage first-party consumer data to inform our campaign strategy while enabling our closed-looped measurement platform to deliver back to our customer their true return on investment. In my current role as CEO, Precision eControl, I brought Mike on as a consultant to help inform foundational elements of our GTM strategy. Areas of focus included client segmentation work for sales territory planning, staffing strategy and sales structure, quota development, sales compensation & commission planning, and talent acquisition opportunities. Mike helped me accelerate in these key areas and we continue to stay connected as both friends and colleagues. If your company is at a stage where you need an experienced industry professional who resides in the middle of GTM influence and impact, I highly recommend reaching out to Mike to explore what's possible"
