  • Trainer, thinker, rainmaker, storyteller. Tom is passionate about eliminating the “F-word” among sales teams (and, no, it’s not the one you are thinking of; the F-word Tom fights against is “fine”). Fine salespeople are average; they are transactional; they are like Lego® bricks…interchangeable parts. To achieve exceptional growth, your salespeople need to be trusted advisors, not transactional vendors. At Brookeside, Tom has established a cross-industry, patented approach to quickly help salespeople become trusted advisors and reap the business results that follow. Tom is a recognized high-energy international speaker, known for his natural storytelling that inspires audiences to achieve greatness.
