Blake Wilson
Dana is a seasonsed sales person who knows exactly how to engage with her prospects in a respectful effective way. She is always willing to share her best practices, and talking points to help support her overall team. In the time that Dana and I were on the same team, she was always a killer. Dana stayed up to date with industry trends and knew exactly what prospects wanted to talk about and how to present it to them. She consistently hit her number and was very effective at driving conversations with our partners. She is a pro.

Dana is a seasoned sales professional and her ability to sell high dollar, custom/integrated programs is unmatched. She takes a very consultative approach to her sales - always looking for what the customer's overall goals are and sometimes uncovering needs they didn't know they had. Dana has also been an integral part of creating/launching and selling new products here at Slashdot Media.
Ike Nwankwo, MBA
Dana has always been someone who I consider to be a true "partner". It was clear that she was not simply trying to get more money for her company, but had the agency and clients' best interest in mind. Forever thankful that we'll continue to work together!
