Listen "Don't let Corporations erase you."
Episode Synopsis
Suzilla is done by Suzie and Matt McColm. We run Suzie Health Solutions which helps people with healthcare with out charging fees in Washington State.
When you do sales and services for a large corporation there is an ugly possibility that they will attempt to erase you. You are expected to come in and develop relationships and meaningful friendships. You come into the conference room greeted by executives, turn in your cell phone if you have one, and they hand you a box for your years of stuff. Sometimes they will twist the knife and say, “Nothing personal just business.” They then remove all reference that you ever existed with the corporation. The experience sucks but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Matt Banta/RR Donely. I had other project manager’s clients walk in and when they were introduced to me would use me for the model of service that they wanted.
