Travis is a person. Most importantly, he’s a father of three and husband to one. He is a marketer leader who enjoys building pipeline for his friends in sales and long walks on the beach.

In all seriousness, I’m a marketer. It’s what I do, it’s what I went to school for and it’s been my career for the past 16 years and counting. More specifically I’m a demand generation leader, I love building strategies that result in tangible pipeline growth and revenue. Generating leads in today’s environment is a simple game but generating leads from the right people, at the right company, at the right time that builds pipeline and closed-won revenue is the fun part.
