In this Sales Mastery Interview, we talk about how to engage prospects with the right message, and John has developed a unique system to help sales folks understand what conversations are working and which ones are not.
John’s product is called Amacus and it is designed to accelerate revenue from Business Development by revealing what’s working and what isn’t. Its auto-analytics show buyer reactions to seller efforts. They enable sales teams to hone best practices using trial and error with small, fast, tests of new tactics. Imagine what you’d like to know, if you could, about sales performance and how to improve it. That’s what Amacus is all about.
With innovative information inc., John’s leading efforts to improve sales performance using auto-analytics that provoke learning and improve habits. Amacus is his firm’s award-winning application.
John’s spent over 30 years harnessing the capabilities of technology and information in ways that accelerate business performance. His mantra: design innovative uses of information that let clients out-perform expectations.
He’s been doing it for a while. Dropped his first deck of punch cards in 1977. Used his first spreadsheet in 1980. Had his first email account in 1981. Co-produced the first internet video for the PGA tour in 1999. Through these and other learning moments, John’s pursued ways to use information that drive business performance by making work fun; by getting people, faster, to the value creating parts of their daily routines.
