Bio form Mr Thank You:
Long before I became Mr. Thank You, my lessons in sales and influence began in my teens as a semi-professional skateboarder pitching myself to companies for sponsorship. Competition was fierce! So how did I wind up working with some of the biggest brands in the industry when there were so many kids just as good or better than me? I became more “relevant” to the companies’ success than my competition.I stopped talking about my goals, and started asking about the brands’ goals. Instead of just wearing a t-shirt with a logo, I built relationships for my brands and actively fought for them to get shelf space at local skate shops. That wasn’t in my “job description,” but putting them first made me their go-to choice.



As my skating career ended and my business career began, those lessons of human connection and relevance became the cornerstones of my sales success. In a few short years I became the #6 rep out of 10,000 sales associates across the country. When the housing crisis of the 2000’s hit, and many businesses were devastated, relationships I had built and nurtured stayed with me and supported our companies’ success.Looking back on those relationships and the human compassion and connection that carried us through that crisis is what inspired my year of thank you cards, which made national news and catapulted my philosophies into the public eye. After that, I started up Mr. Thank You as a speaking, coaching, and consulting business, and the rest is history.I’ve now been featured on ABC News, Fox News, Good Morning America, and helped global brands like Square, ReMax, and Fairway Mortgage, among many others, and my message is simple:We don’t need to optimize analytics more—we need human connection in our day-to-day business. Since founding Mr. Thank You, I’ve spoken to thousands of audience members, consulted corporations, and coached sales leaders nationwide on the importance and principles of customer experience, sales culture, and leadership.I want to show you how easy it is to create real results by investing in re-humanizing your workplace and marketplace.
