Hey guys, thanks for the kind words!

And now back to the questions....



8. You actually worked for ACME? discuss


I was a huge fan of the Road Runner cartoons when I was a kid and I find it so ironic that I went to work for a company called Acme Business Products after college. I actually looked up what Acme meant so I could know why I worked for the same company that tried so hard to help the Coyote! Acme actually means pinnacle, which was a pretty cool name for a business products company.

Nonetheless all my friends gave me shit for working for Acme, of all companies!!

At Acme Business Products, I sold photo copiers. There is no better training in the world of hard core sales work, than the selling of business products! I can assure you of that!

Sales was my first carrier out of college and selling copiers was life at Acme. Of course, I have never stopped selling. From selling judges and juries as a lawyer to selling hosting services now. Selling is what I do and have always done. However, I am not your typical sales person-no high stress or pressure, I sell through building relationships-a skill I really mastered by watching Tony Morgan.
