At Acquirent and LeadJen, we provide our clients with sales success through the recruiting, training, and managing of their sales team. A three-time winner of the Inc. 5000 award for fastest-growing companies in America, sales prowess has been a part of our company since day one. Whether a team is one part of our client’s sales infrastructure, or their entire sales engine, we are 100% dedicated to a client’s needs. With over 25 years of sales experience, I built JP Flanagan Corporation at the age of 27, which would become one of Chicago’s largest insurance agencies with offices throughout the country. I’ve coached and employed hundreds of Chicago’s finest salespeople by providing them with the tools and motivation to thrive in every sales function. In 2022 I joined early-stage venture capital firm Distributed Ventures as Growth Partner, where I focus on helping the funds’ portfolio companies develop and refine their go-to-market strategies, fortify their commercial teams, and catalyze business development milestones at the earliest stages of their life cycles.
