Testimonials
"As European Sales Director, David delivered a firm and steady voice to the Avanti Sales Agents, challenging their shortcomings, reinforcing their successes, managing performance objectives and installing accountability outcomes as appropriate.
One new sector example - travel retail - featured the world's first-ever sale of greetings cards on the trolleys of a major airline. This particular sale exemplified the success of David's constructive blue sky thinking and consultative selling approach.
Davis is honest, transparent, intelligent and trustworthy and a relentlessly professional Sales leader. He was a very strong asset to Avanti Press Inc. and I have no hesitation recommending him to any business looking to grow their sales and market share!"
"I have known David for many years, both as Sales Director at Radley London, and more recently at Avanti Press Inc. He has an appetite for driving sales whilst building lasting professional relationship and always goes the extra mile. He looks for creative solutions to solve any issues and always works with professionalism and integrity. I would not hesitate to work with David again and would recommend his ability as Sales Director to any prospective client."
"It’s important to note that it is a pleasure working with David. His balanced composure and combination of big picture view and understanding coupled with independent market and verticals allows David to both achieve corporate strategy through individualized micro-tactics independently. His easy going composure does not inhibit his ‘all in’ dedication to bring the job or in his case at Machrus - jobs done well!"
