David Markridge

Mike was one of the hardest working guys I have ever come across. His attention to detail can not be rivaled. And he has always been able to ask the harder questions, to help peel the layers back to get to the real objection or concern.

Chris Hopps

Mike was the first person I interviewed after taking a management role. From day one, he proved to be motivated, hard-working, and a high performer. His early success came from high effort, and he quickly combined that effort with high skill to become the top performer on my team every month. He also took it upon himself to mentor new teammates and to think outside the box by working to establish a pipeline of international sales opportunities. Mike has a very bright future ahead of him.
