Erik always brought a smile to my work day. His optimism and drive would always energize the team on the days when we all need a little inspiration. Erik can help any customer feel understood, I have seen him connect with (and close) an array of buyer types and business owners. Erik will excel in small market with his empathy, mid-market with his strategy and enterprise with his sheer focus. Any organization would be lucky to have Erik as an addition to their team.

Erik and I were in the same training class and team at Lytx and I can't say enough good things about him. He is not only a phenomenal sales professional - he is also an outstanding teammate. He was always available for questions, pep talks and as a sounding board to brainstorm and strategize. Erik is incredibly intelligent and an analytical thinker. He's a fast learner who excels in building relationships with is prospective customers. Once the deal is closed, he makes sure his customers are taken care of which creates a funnel of customer referrals. I highly recommend Erik for any position and know he will rise to the top at any organization. Any company would be lucky to have him! Juli Graves - Lytx
