Bio
Scott Brown
I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Callum for several years since he joined our team as an apprentice at 17 years of age. Callum's development has been remarkable he has confidence and communication skills way beyond his years. Selling an extremely technical complex product can be challenging for anyone, but Callum has worked hard to learn his subject and demonstrates extensive knowledge and speaks with authority. Callum is now a very proficient sales professional that can sell Director level opportunities. Callum has a detailed knowledge of Sales Force and took our teams use of this product to another level. He's a self starter who can work independently or as part of a team. The sky's the limit for Callum he has a very bright future. On a personal note he's one of the good guys,, I really value his friendship.

Callum is a young man with a good head on his shoulders, he picks things up very quickly and soon passes his teacher in skill and understanding. His use of systems and processes to achieve positive outcomes is outstanding. He is skilled in Salesforce operations and has edited and built complex functions and processes to manage the sales process. He also has a good understating of marketing techniques and self analyses and then adjusts to get the right results. He handles clients extremely well, hungry for sales and success and has the upmost integrity. He’s a great sales all rounder and a team player that will go far in any sales environment.
