What Our Clients Had to Say
Doug Brown is a leading edge conceptual thinker, a leader who has the ability to develop practical solutions to complex problems. Doug knows that it’s the people who must implement solutions; so as a master coach, teacher, and facilitator, he helps world-class leaders achieve even higher levels of performance. I’ve had the opportunity to work with Doug in a variety of settings. When facing complicated problems, Doug is out front with new and creative approaches. His breadth of experience runs the gamut from sales to strategy to organizational culture. I admire and respect Doug as a professional and as a friend. He is a top tier leader whose practice is built on strong values.
In 2003, I made a signficant investment in my firm's capabilities and needed an exponential increase in revenues to cover the expense. To help me meet these goals, I hired Doug as my Sales Coach. With his assistance, I turned several prospects into new clients. In just a few months, I got a 20 times return on my investment. And the work we did laid a strong foundation for continued success in sales.
Not only does Doug get results...he's also a lot of fun to work with. You can't beat that!!
I hired Doug to coach me in improving my sales skills. Doug was well organized, patient, and persistent in helping me to fully understand the fundamentals of the discipline. He shared his knowledge and experience in ways that made the subject come alive and helped me to structure my own efforts in productive ways. Doug helped me to establish a foundation that I believe will truly enhance my career.
I recently completed a Sales Coaching program with Doug, and it was one of the best developmental experiences I have ever had. He truly backs up one of the basic tenets of developing loyal clients….. exceed their expectations. Doug has a wealth of consulting knowledge and experience, not just about the selling process, but also about how businesses function. What I appreciated even more however, was his willingness to share his knowledge so freely. He gave me a lot to think about, new approaches toward the sales process and a variety of other things to work on. This is exactly what I needed!
I look forward to working with Doug again in the future, and I recommend him as a coach and consultant for anyone who is serious about wanting to improve their selling and other management/leadership skills.
I hired Doug as a business coach, and was impressed with his methodical approach and optimistic attitude. Together we worked out a plan for my business which is still in the process of being implemented but so far the results are impressive - significantly more client appointments and a much more efficient use of my time. Most importantly, I am thrilled about the direction that my business is taking. I realize now that much more is in my control than I thought before working with Doug and truly feel that I have had a "Paradigm" shift in how I view business development.
