get instant accessIf you’re here, I know you want to sell more. And whether you are an entrepreneur or sales professional, you care about growing your client base and the brand and reputation you’re building in your space.
Today I’m going to introduce you to someone who has recently become a great friend of mine and someone I have tons of respect for in the business space. Mark Drager was introduced to me a while back by our mutual friend Bo Hawkins, and I was honored to go on his show “How to Sell More”.
In getting to know him, Mark has this concept he calls #CoreBrandIdentity that I thought was brilliant and can be applied to help you amplify your brand and sales whether you’re in corporate or an entrepreneur.
Mark Drager is the Founder and CEO of SalesLoop, which has won 32 industry awards and produced $14 million in content. He’s also a father of four who has had offbeat adventures including having a Boeing 737-800 for the day (twice!), a heated encounter with a billionaire, and even shedding 70 lbs in his late 30s.
