Sam
Meers,
President, Meers
Advertising “Smart,
articulate and open to new ideas are just a few
of the ways I would describe Sean Stormes. Sean
is a firm believer that there are only two things
that drive a business: Innovation and Marketing.
While much of his experience is in sales, he is
firmly grounded in how his efforts and team
support the overall marketing and product
development efforts of the company. Sean has the
unique ability to not only see the trees, but
also to back away to see the forest. Grasping the
bigger picture is a trait that serves him well.
He rarely becomes lost in the detail of the task
at hand. Rather, he moves through day-to-day
challenges while keeping his eye on the bigger
goal. If you have the opportunity to work with
Sean & Speed To Revenue, please don't pass it
up. You will experience a mutually beneficial
learning and profitable
experience."
Jerry Phillips,
VP and GM Residential Division, Cold Spring
Granite Co “Sean
is outstanding at assessing talent. He is
extremely gifted in finding talented people, and
developing their selling skills quickly. He is a
great motivator with a varied background that
allows him to understand full business processes
including a great background in Continuous
Process Improvement (TQM). I thought so highly of
Sean's skills that I hired him twice; initially
with Grainger, and then again as my National
Sales Manager at Cold Spring Granite. Sean gets
results, and his creation of Speed To Revenue,
LLC, is a brilliant and logical next step for
him.”
Roger
Payne,
Director, Quality & Training, Yellow Freight
System (YRC
Worldwide) “I
have specifically chosen Sean to work with me in
a number of past roles, from Sales, Branch
Management, TQM Specialist and Vice President, in
a number of environments, from small facility
management to large company staff positions to my
small private distribution business. Because of
his teaching, public speaking and strategic
skills and abilities, Sean has been an asset to
me in every position. I will seek to collaborate
with him in the future with Speed To Revenue, and
recommend him highly in consultative or
management situations.”
Chuck
Baldwin,Account Manager, Pur-O-Zone
“Sean
has had a huge impact on my personal and
professional life. He's taught me how to approach
sales as a consultant and not as a 'sales rep.'
I've gained so much knowledge and confidence by
working with him. I wish more sales managers and
owners would approach sales the way Sean does.
He's an outstanding teacher when it comes to
managing and coaching sales people. One of my
favorite quotes from Sean, and I still use it to
this day: 'Products are what we sell, not what we
do.' I consider him a mentor, friend, and
confidant. I miss working for him and with him.
We still stay in touch to this day. I would
highly recommend him to speak and train your
sales and management team. I've worked and
represented some of the top sales trainers when I
was at Five Star Speakers & Trainers but not
too many of them truly 'get it' like Sean
does." Dan
Christians,
Regional Sales Manager, Paycor
Payroll “There
are people who are in sales and then there are
people, like Sean, for which sales and consulting
is their profession and passion. Sean's
knowledge, skill and passion for sales and
consulting distinguishes him as a high impact
professional.”
