Doug is a first-class sales professional who understands the solution, not the product, creates real impact. He was always responsive and helped our marketing programs take root in the field for maximum impact. Any organization looking for a plug and play talent would be wise to give him consideration.

I have known Doug for a long time and I have to say his attention to detail and follow through are exceptional. He has always struck me as someone who will go the extra mile to just help out. I am confident that where ever he works, he will be successful and take that extra step.
