Ryan Allen
I had the pleasure of working with Sean on several customer projects. I always found him to be organized, efficient and very knowledgeable. I would recommend him for any sales related function.
Richard Vaughn
Sean worked for me for over 4-1/2 years at i-Tech support. He started out as an inside salesperson and marketing support manager where he implemented direct marketing programs and event marketing. In no time, he was able to update his skills to manage webpage development and SEO marketing. As inside salesperson, he took on the substantial duties of generating, selling, and (more importantly) closing support contracts and technology proposals for our clients. He was promoted to Advanced Technology Account Manager during his final year where he successfully sold and serviced prospects and clients as an outside salesperson. Sean’s best qualities include tenaciousness as well as his ability to successfully take on new projects and responsibilities. With little or no prior experience, he was able to initiate and complete numerous sales and marketing campaign initiatives with minimal supervision. He gets the job done. I highly recommend Sean.

Sean is a great asset to any team! He is a driven and goal-oriented individual who seeks opportunity and success. I enjoyed my time working with Sean, he knows when to get down to business but also knows when everyone needs a laugh and have a little fun to break up the day-to-day schedule. Sean is a great co-worker, employee and friend - I gladly recommend him.
