Bio
Lee Spicer
George is a very likable individual, who I recruited in early 2022 to join my Sales Team at ChannelAdvisor. From the very start, George consistently demonstrated a positive work ethic. He showed an inquisitiveness throughout, which resulted in him actively seeking ways to learn new things, build new relationships and to develop his sales skills. Intentionally we worked together a lot on a 1-2-1 basis and I found him to be highly coachable and also welcoming of feedback. Through his hard work, George secured some positive success in his role. During these engagements he showed his ability to absorb key technical information/concepts, and was then able to articulate this knowledge in a credible and engaging manner during client discussions. I look forward to seeing George’s next step in his sales career, as I fully expect he will be a success wherever that is.

I feel exceptionally fortunate to have worked with someone of George’s calibre. Both ambitious and passionate, he has really made a difference in the way we approach prospects at Creative-CX. I have learnt a lot from him in recent projects together where he has really added value and hope that I continue to learn from him in the future.
