I love upside only business models. Wish you luck!

Why did you insist on the first salesperson?

When I first met him he told me he was living in a tiny appt in Hell's Kitchen (NYC neighborhood) but was looking for a new job. He’d just moved to the city from Colorado and was trying to reset. I knew he had a great work ethic and that he was a self starter so decided to take a risk. 100% worth it. He’s closed well over a million in deals and now runs our sales team.
