Hi I'm John, and I am an accomplished President, General Manager, and Chief Revenue Officer with broad experience commercializing products, generating revenue, and leading businesses across North America.
I spent 25+ years inside some of the most disciplined sales and revenue organizations in the country. My experience was with well-known companies and brands like Energizer, Husqvarna, Spectrum Brands, Philip Morris, and others. I have implemented revenue growth principles that accelerate margins faster than sales through disciplined pricing architecture, focused portfolio management, and strategic go-2-market decisions. My experience includes leading North America operations including sales, marketing, operations and more.
I got pulled into the world of smaller companies and North American startups advising them in the launch. I took on a project as President of a global company that wanted to accelerate their own brand after years of creating products for others. This company didn't have the luxury of an established budget, brand recognition, or a large sales force. What they needed most was the right activities to focus on with speed, a clearer roadmap for their portfolio and services, a more direct relationship with the customer at the right levels, and a relentless obsession with economics. Together, we grew revenue over 190% and improved our company profitability, all in under a year.
Today I run Distribution and Revenue Growth Partners LLC — within this business I have a consulting practice focused on profit acceleration and revenue generation built for small and mid-size companies. Additionally, I have an established fractional service as a Chief Revenue Officer for those companies ready to achieve eight or nine figure revenue. If you are frustrated by your profits or hitting a revenue ceiling, we can help transform your business. We deliver by GROWING SALES! GROWING SHARE! and GROWING PROFITS!
I bring the discipline of leading world-class sales organizations and the hustle of a startup founder to every engagement. No large retainers or equity asks. No junior consultants. Just senior judgment, honest coaching, and hands-on consulting deployed where it moves the needle.
Like one of the brands and mascots I worked closely with, the Energizer Bunny, you can expect that same passion and spirit to keep going and never stop working until you reach your goals and take grow your business beyond what you thought possible.
If you are ready to grow in profit, or your revenue and demand is hitting a ceiling - let's talk.
