116: Curtis Mullin – Business Dynamics

Guest: Curtis Mullin

Guest Bio:

I am an award-winning sales leader who fell into sales. My wife and I made the decision to leave the military with two small children and start our cross-country adventure. I went back to school at Montana State University where I put my management experience back to use. After working at two Fortune 500 companies and earning my MBA from Washington State University, I took the opportunity to continue my career development at a midsize company. After managing the sales channel of a smaller brand, was promoted to sales director where I generated 63% growth. I was then given the opportunity to lead a larger team where I increased revenue by an additional 22%. I spent 3 ½ years at that organization until making the decision to go out on my own. I have become extremely effective at managing business turnarounds and developing high-performing teams. www.cm-bd.com
