Jon is an excellent SVP and a true Sales Leader.

Daniel O'Connell

Jon managed a startup eCommerce B2B company I worked at and, not only was he able to acquire additional funding for the company but he was also able to manage the company effectively and efficiently while concentrating on sales (the most important aspect of a startup). He was also able to make the necessary but hard decisions to protect the investors and insure a company's longevity and success. I enjoyed working with Jon and would recommend him for any high level, CEO, president position he seeks. I learned plenty from his expertise.
