John Merrill gets sales results

“I have known John Merrill since early 2013 when I was prospecting him to do business with DISH. John was the Top account for DirecTV in the country, and he was the HIGHEST PRIORITY prospect for us at the time. Overall, John is an A++ player in the telecom and door-to-door space who has excelled with multiple companies such as Comcast, DirecTV, Frontier and now DISH. His ability to build high-performing teams, think strategically about the business and manage multiple priorities simultaneously is unmatched. His most impressive contribution at DISH has been building a full-time events team for the East Coast. Due to John’s contributions, the East Region has transitioned from an event absent region to a year-round events selling machine. In fact, the East Region has topped all other regions for sales in 2016, and John’s team has undertaken this gigantic task with several local home and county shows all over the East Coast and bigger events such as the Big E Fair, Dixie Classic Fair, North Carolina State Fair, Ohio State Fair and Virginia State Fair. I would rank John in the Top 1% of all sales leaders. His ability to motivate, drive sales, pay attention to the details, focus on customer delight, manage relationships, and most importantly, have a forward-thinking view of the business is second-to-none.”
