A little bit about EksAyn (X)
 
EksAyn has been seen on Forbes.com and Speaker Magazine, in addition to various business blogs, podcasts and news stations. His educational, professional and life experiences have taught him not only how to connect, self-actualize, and thrive at work, but also how to teach you and your team to increase your business, negotiate with the best, and create loyal, long-term clients. As just one example of his success, after just 3 ½ years with a company that had hundreds of salespeople, EksAyn closed 3 of the top 6 largest transactions that the organization had ever had in its history, including the all-time record for the largest transaction, which was over SIX TIMES larger than the next biggest sale the company had EVER had.
