Closer's Corner

The women behind the out of territory request: Kelli Petrie.  Kelli is no stranger to changes at WWEX given she's been here for 16 years.  She's truly seen it all from company structural changes to epic times at conferences.  What we love most about Kelli's interview is her passion and commitment to working here.  She's a great example of being a team player; helping out in any faucet possible, whether it's simply having Advil in her purse at all times needed or jumping on any project thrown her way.  Kelli always rises to the occasion and is quick to lend a hand.

The Closer's Corner is proud to have a 10 year vet and true original stop by, Bethany DeAngelo. In this episode Bethany talks about our salesforce migration as well as, her love of travel, food, and wine. I give her a ton of credit. She someone managed to punt our WWEX dinner guest question, but with all next gen info/insights she teased us... it was deemed acceptable.

Leah Parker drops in to give Alice and Will some insights into her Director of Support role, as well as her ascension within the organization. Leah drops a few knowledge bombs throughout the pod, but most importantly she talks about some future state (behind the current) projects that she is working on to help the the sales force.

Our next guest, Lauren Smith graces us with her presence in the Closer Corner. This was our first podcast not done in person, but rather over the phone . So... we've come a long way right?Lauren is one of the hardest workers in the game.

She talks about her rise within the organization, her love of mentorship, and all the work that it took behind the scenes to put us in a position to thrive in our virtual environment. Lauren and her groups protect the house mindset and security measures have proved invaluable to our organization over the years. On personal side of the house Lauren talks about her love of spirit animals, all things Mavs, as well as being a religious scrapbooker. PS... Schult, stop clicking on all those email links, she knows it's you.

Our next guest is on the will go down in the annals of WWEX History as one of the greatest competitors to ever lace them up. Mr Word of the Week himself, Bob Tupe. Tupe is a true renaissance man whose contributions to our company place him on the Mount Rushmore within the sales arena.

Also - The search is over, my new Co-Host Alice Berry makes her debut and steals the show with a few well timed lines. Enjoy

Recorded this one a couple weeks back in NYC. Alissa drops some serious knowledge about things most of us field people have no clue about. This one validates the fact we are actually a real "big" company now. Marketing is more than printing out set up kits apparently. Who would have thought? StatGirl makes her first appearance (Alice Berry from Philly) and comes out of the gates strong

I was harder to deal with then (albeit barely).
