Bio
Wallace "Buddy" Ryland
I was fortunate to recruit Adam when we were looking to build Evryx and land new logo clients for a bleeding edge start up. His editorial background and innate talent made him exactly what we needed to secure our first clients. What most impressed me, was that he had never sold before and was much better than others who had sales experience on our team. He has become a trusted adviser in the mobility space over the years, and I continue to find ways to work with him when possible.

I had the pleasure of working with Adam while he was on my Business Development team in the Start-Up Business Group at Microsoft. During this time we were building the 2D barcode business with the Microsoft Tag product. 2D barcodes were still relatively new to mobile marketers at that time and Adam took advantage of his extremely strong communication skills to describe our solution in easy to understand terms with both customers and partners. (No doubt honed during his time in TV news.) The role also required thinking up new and innovative ways to use the technology and Adam’s creative nature enabled him to excel in this area. Lastly, he consistently showed that he is a skilled collaborator who works well across groups and across companies. I would not hesitate to recommend Adam for a business development role where he can put these skills to good use.
