Testimonials
“The sales team was not performing up to our expectations and their full potential. We knew we needed a focused Sales Coach to address the gaps in their performance.
We hired Dave, a Fractional VP of Sales, to join our Leadership Team. Dave accessed everyone on the sales team and quickly identified precisely where there were gaps in their sales knowledge; he then put into place a plan to address the gaps and coach the sales team. Frankly, I was amazed at how he was able to coach individuals on the sales team and help them become significantly better at selling in just a few months.
If you have struggled with your sales team not hitting targets and are tired of their excuses, I highly recommend you have a conversation with Dave!”
Bonny, Operations Manager, Renewable Energy Industry
“We hired Dave as our Sales Manager and he quickly came up to speed and took over the sales leadership. Sales had been flat for a few years, and we were not winning our share of deals.
Through sales coaching, Dave was able to improve individual sales team closing ratio KPI by 4% - 11% driving an average 6% increase across the sales team. In less than 12 months Dave was able to grow our top line by 20%.
One salesperson realized a major change in how they sold through Dave’s sales coaching. At a company get-together his wife walked over to Dave and thanked him for everything he did for her husband and their family.
If you are struggling with any sales issues, I would highly recommend you have a conversation with Dave.”

“Dave Jacobson was an integral part of two turnaround projects over an 18 month period. Dave’s guidance on sales operations and team dynamics was extremely helpful as we restructured the companies and refocused on core customers. I have also consulted with Dave on a wide variety of strategic issues over the years and have consistently found his advice to be on target”

“If you are lucky you get an opportunity to work for some great bosses in your career. I was very lucky to have worked for Dave for three years at Regus. Dave took me literally under his wing and coached me, empowered me and allowed me to thrive. Dave asked for a lot but I always knew he had my back. Under Dave I received several promotions along with raises. I highly recommend Dave as a Sales Expert and Sales Coach. Your sales organization will be better utilizing Dave’s talents.”
