Hire the Best Certified Sales Leadership Professionals

Your workday ended hours ago. The business didn't. Growth changes what a business needs from you. Past a certain point, success depends on more than hard work. It depends on consistent execution, organized operations, and someone who keeps the day-to-day moving while you focus on bigger decisions. I'm a General Virtual Assistant and Operations Assistant helping founders, executives, and growing businesses stay organized through Executive Support, Administrative Support, Business Operations, Project Management, CRM Admin, Email Management, Calendar Management, Task Coordination, Customer Support, and Process Improvement. I manage executive calendars, email, CRM systems, customer communication, projects, and day-to-day business operations so business owners can focus on leading instead of coordinating every moving piece. Over the past 7 years, I've worked across sales leadership, banking client operations, and executive support, building a reputation for accuracy, ownership, and dependable execution. I'm HubSpot Certified and Airtable Certified, bringing hands-on CRM admin and business operations support experience to every project. WHERE I'VE MADE A DIFFERENCE ◆ Managed 60+ customer calls and 100+ emails daily while maintaining a 75%+ first-contact resolution rate. ◆ Led, coached, and coordinated a team of 15+ sales professionals, contributing to a 25%+ improvement in team performance. ◆ Built and maintained CRM systems in HubSpot and Airtable for lead management, pipeline tracking, and customer records. ◆ Kept calendars, communications, and confidential records accurate and current, with zero missed follow-ups across high-volume periods. ◆ Coordinated onboarding, Task Coordination, and cross-functional communication to keep projects and business operations running efficiently. ◆ Implemented workflow automations that reduced repetitive administrative work and increased efficiency.

It's to create enough structure that work keeps moving, decisions happen faster, and you spend less time managing the business behind the business. Still here? That usually means you're not looking for someone to simply complete tasks. You're looking for someone you can trust to own them. That's the reputation I work to build on every project. Send me a message or an invitation. Tell me what needs to get done, and let's get it handled.

I bring 20+ years of hands-on B2B sales and business development experience, helping startups, growth-stage companies, and enterprise organizations drive revenue through outbound sales, lead generation, cold calling, affiliate partnerships, pipeline development, and full-cycle closing. I specialize in revenue growth, customer acquisition, sales strategy, and appointment setting, with a proven ability to build predictable pipelines and convert prospects into long-term clients. Accomplishments: -$5M in new revenue for a software company by closing large government and education accounts -40% increase in customer base and revenue in 60 days for a startup -30% sales increase for a SaaS client through a partnership program I developed -$3M in total revenue in my best year across multiple industries -$2.5M in new policy premium in year one as a top-producing insurance agent, earning multiple awards for highest new account acquisition -Built and led a team of 7+ sales reps to regional award winning status , while exceeding my own sales targets What I Do I own the entire sales cycle: prospecting, lead generation, pipeline management, discovery calls, presentations, negotiation, and closing. I self-source leads through cold calling, LinkedIn, email campaigns, and strategic partnerships. I've closed high-ticket B2B deals in SaaS, software development, government contracts, IT services, healthcare, insurance, and real estate. I know how to navigate long sales cycles and complex procurement processes. How I Work I built my sales career from scratch — cold-calling daily, self-sourcing 100% of leads, and closing deals across medical practices, manufacturing, professional services, and enterprise accounts. I'm HubSpot Advanced Certified and proficient in Salesforce, Pipedrive, LinkedIn, Sales Navigator, Apollo, and Outreach. I use data and CRM analytics to optimize performance, but I close deals through real conversations and relationships. AI Sales Systems I Build I build AI-powered outbound engines from the ground up — automated account research, targeted list-building, and personalized outreach at scale using Claude, ChatGPT, Cowork, and Apollo, wired straight into their CRM. Pipeline fills faster and I am able to spend time selling instead of digging for leads. I still close the way I always have — real conversations — but AI is how I get in front of more of the right people, faster. Who I Work With Startups building their first sales engine, growth-stage companies scaling revenue, and enterprises launching new products. I take full accountability for bringing on new accounts and generating revenue. You're hiring 20+ years of proven expertise and someone who delivers results from day one. My rate is $90.00/hr with a minimum 2-week engagement to start. I'm open to discussing hybrid compensation structures after an initial engagement period once we've established a working relationship and there's a clear path to earnings. Commission-only arrangements are not a fit.

Most demos, webinars, and sales conversations don’t fall apart because the product or service is bad. They fall apart because the delivery isn’t working. Technically correct… but flat. Feature-heavy… but not persuasive. Conversations that start strong… but don’t move forward. That’s where deals stall, and that’s what I fix. I work with startups, SMBs, and growing teams to fix the part of the sales process where deals actually stall, the conversation itself. What that looks like: - Demo & Webinar Execution Running high-impact presentations that keep attention, build trust, and move buyers toward a decision - Sales Conversations & Closing Leading follow-up and closing conversations that turn interest into real opportunities - Fractional VP of Sales Leadership Stepping in to bring structure, direction, and momentum to the sales process without a full-time hire - Coaching & Process Improvement Helping teams improve how they communicate, present, and sell in real conversations I’m not a script reader or a task-based freelancer. I step in as an operator, someone who can take control of the conversation, guide the process, and help move deals forward. Background: - Founder of Pinnacle Pitch Services - Experience working across industries, from startups to enterprise environments - MBA, Marquette University From first conversation to signed deal, I help you reduce friction and increase conversion where it matters most. If your demos or sales conversations feel like they should be performing better than they are, there’s usually a reason.
