See what building material executives are saying about Mark:

“I went home with plenty of great ideas I could implement immediately. What I liked most about hearing Mark speak was the way the information was presented. And the real world comparisons made it even more understandable… You know your stuff!” – Michael Kennaw, Vice President: Sales & Marketing Fox Blocks

“My boss, told me you were the “master of the building products industry”.  What I really appreciated was were the way you used practical real world examples and not “theory.” As a Sales Director, I knew there were different approaches to selling each customer segment but your presentations did a great job of focusing in on the key points and giving me a step-by-step process for getting better sales results.” – Mark Hinterlong, Director of Sales, InterWrap®

“Every point of direction you gave was paired with an example. This made things really click for me. The graph of Power/Knowledge + Primary Motivation was brilliant. To me, this was an incredible tool for understanding the importance of educating before you sell. Overall, I just liked understanding how all of the parts of the building materials space work together and how each part of the channel requires a specific approach. I feel like I got 20 years of industry experience from listening to you.” – Zach Williams, Founder & Creative Director of Venveo
