Bio
Christopher Trebon
I've had the pleasure of calling Michael Hawks a colleague for 7 years. This has spanned two companies and a number of different roles and responsibilities. Mike is your textbook definition of positive energy. This energy wins over colleagues and customers alike, and helps Mike establish trust and rapport with all different kinds of people and personalities in no time at all. I've witnessed Michael win over strangers at a trade show – taking time to walk thru the not only the features and benefits of a specific product, but ask the right questions to help explain how that specific product was going to change their life. I've worked with Mike on supporting customer events and initiatives and seen him consistently over deliver on expectations and results. Another trait that Mike embodies is integrity. Sales strategies and ideas, customer initiatives and programs, you can take it for granted that Michael is acting in the best interest of both his customers and his company. Mike is an absolute expert in the wireless space and natural leader for any sales team.
