Brendan was always an absolute pleasure to work for. His attention to detail and over all knowlegde of the market is tip top and can be dirrectly attributed to the success QTG DSD is having over the competition in the San Diego Zone. He not only made working for QTG DSD a pleasurable experience but also passed down critical sales knowlege and techniques that I will use for years to come in my future endeavors.
