Business is an awful lot like a long and winding road – sometimes fraught with potholes and other times an opportunity for a smooth cruise down a great stretch of highway.
Catherine Blake is a sales and marketing professional who has spent much of her career helping CEOs navigate their journey to business success. As founder of Seacoast-based Sales Protocol International, she has twenty years of sales and marketing experience with both FORTUNE 500 corporate giants such as EMC, GTE and IBM Corporation and start-ups.
Her assignments have taken her outside the United States to Chile, Ecuador, China, Australia, Germany, Sweden, England and France. In her tenure, some of her key clients have included NBC TV, ESPN, Raytheon, DeBeers, Daimler-Benz and the United States Navy. She has survived some of the best sales training on the planet, including walking across a bed of red hot coals to establish self-control and focus.
We’re glad that Catherine has now joined the “No Bull Business Blog” as a contributor with her “Business Road Warrior” column. Her new entry explores the world of lean manufacturing and how it is transforming the business marketplace and improving the prospects for a number of local companies.
