Hub Talk With Devin Sizemore

Event Date: 
June 16, 2022 - 5:00pm

Join us for a Hub Talk by Devin Sizemore, all about "Adding Value One Connection At A Time"

We live in a time where there is information overload. This creates the “shinning object” syndrome. We as consumers have so many options to choose from when it comes to finding answers to our challenges. However, many of these solutions sound great, but don’t follow through on their promises. In this talk we will explore the types of “sales training” that exists, where there are gaps in what is taught versus what works and we will talk through value-driven relationship building. It is time to stop selling and start connecting!

Devin’s passion is everything business and in having a positive impact with the individuals and companies he works with.

Today I started pruning out the water sprouts in my four crabapple trees.
