Chris Manning is a passionate Entrepreneur and an experienced and highly motivated national sales executive who enjoys working with and providing solutions directly to business owners and c-level executives. This consultant oriented sales style drives revenue, allows development teams to quickly articulate the process and build it into contracts and increases customer loyalty long term in environments where it is important to not only make an initial sale but to drive maintenance revenue.

As a results-oriented leader he takes a tremendous amount of care to properly identify customer pain and challenges during initial engagements in order to shorten the sales cycle and solve real problems. This strategy creates a more predictable, profitable, and consistent revenue stream.

As a master researcher he utilizes extensive databases, social networks and Internet tools and takes great pride in getting through to and identifying the proper decision maker.

As a former Information Technology Director, purchasing enterprise hardware and software systems in the government and private sectors, he has a unique ability to relate to business owners and c-level executives by giving executive presentations in person, through public speaking at conferences/events and by training the customer to be a true business partner throughout the sales cycle.

Chris enjoys traveling all over the US and the World to provide customers with quality products/services.

Currently he is building a fundraising program called Community Fundraising Books (found at www.CommunityFundraisingBooks.com) to assist local Churches, Schools and non-profits to raise valuable funds in a stressed economy.

Other projects that he is working on in the lab:

Atlanta.biz – A comprehensive community portal for Atlanta, GA

MyCompany.info – A complete global business directory
