Bio
Greg Hahn
During my two years working with Avery, I constantly asked him for feedback with strategic planning in the Carolinas. Since Avery was one of the seasoned sales leaders on my team and because he knew the Charlotte area well, I listened to his recommendations. I relied on him with his insight regarding territory adjustments, customer feedback, as well as improving our retention. His contributions helped the Carolina region grow for the first time in years, and he is a great team player.
Tony Mangini
Avery is a top sales professional that is a huge asset to any team he is a part of. His willingness to be a team player greatly helped the Carolinas region achieve growth in 2015. His knowledge and experience also made him the top Carolina rep for new account acquisition in 2015. He brings an abundance of positivity and enthusiasm to any team that he is a part of.
