I was just sharing with my son today how incredibly fortunate I was to be coached by a giant among men so early in my career. I was thinking about that tonight and thought to look you up on Facebook and there you were, teaching the very same skills that made me so successful. When I watched the video about selling the pen, I was speechless. You taught me that lesson 20 years ago, and I have used it throughout my career and still use it to this very day. I have worked with some of the smartest people in the Valley, raised millions from powerhouses like KKR, but none of that would have been possible without Ken Langwell Thank you for teaching me how to sell! Thank you for teaching me how to be a leader! Thank you for teaching me how to succeed!

Ken was the BEST Manager I have ever worked with - bar none. Ken allowed his sales team to sell their way by following a solid fundamentals framework. He was tough but fair and it made you want to strive to be your best. I found out how good of a sales person I could be under his guidance. It is rare to find a manager that can manage their team as individuals and as a group and give everyone what they need to do their best. I found out how good of a salesperson I was while working with Ken. He took a failing training center and turned it into one of the top producing locations in the country. Salespeople dream of a manager like Ken and I was one of the lucky ones to work with him. I would work for Ken anywhere, anytime and anyplace."

Ken was the perfect enterprise sales rep. He was completely dedicated to exceeding his numbers - with extra effort, with creative methods of having more conversations, with his obvious professionalism, and through leveraging his deep technical understandings. When I managed Ken he clearly knew how to sell at all levels of a company - his prior management experience made him the go-to guy with the largest opportunities that EmailLabs worked on and closed, but I also knew that he'd be a top producer with our run-rate deals as well. Ken is as solid as they come and I can only imagine how significantly he’s moving the needle for salespeople since he transitioned into coaching a few years ago.

Ken has an attention to detail and the ability to strive for success that is almost never seen. Highly motivated and dedicated as one would expect a person of his caliber to be. Personable, dependable and able to communicate with clarity and vision that is unmatched. His skill as a sales leader and coach is obvious and I would not hesitate to highly recommend him to any individual or company looking for success.

When I first started at this company, Ken was a well-known and respected sales professional not only by management, but also his peers. I made it a point to learn as much as I could from Ken as it was clear that he had a better, more effective approach to selling than any other salesperson I'd met. He had an honest, transparent, consultative approach that put his customers and prospects at ease,, because they knew they were getting the solution that was best for their company. From my perspective, Ken's numbers and numerous achievements spoke for themselves, and I always admired his creativity, as well as his ability to understand a concept and articulate an idea into a dollar. Ken was a motivated, smart, and extremely trustworthy professional, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to coach them to another level of sales success!

Ken is a true leader and mentor. He knows how to dissect a sales professional and effectively train each individual based on their separate strengths. He never fails to share his wealth of knowledge, and is always available to give guidance. He has personally taught me how to sustain my passion for the industry with balancing eagerness with patience. One should be so lucky to be coached by Ken Langwell. What you'll learn about sales and about yourself is career and life changing!

I had the great pleasure of Ken being on my team when I first arrived at Lyris. Ken is absolutely fantastic, a seasoned sales rep with top notch skills. I would be hard pressed to come up with any sales rep I have worked with in nearly 15 years better than Ken. He is a straight shooter, focused on selling the value of our solution, and was a trusted advisor to our clients through his transparency-first philosophy. Additionally, Ken has such a great range of experience, we leaned on him significantly to provide rep training and mentoring. At our 2009 Sales Conference, we paid an outside consultant a very large sum for 6 hrs worth of Sales Training for our Field Sales team. At that same event, we asked Ken to put together training for our Inside Sales team, and what he delivered was far more powerful, valuable and motivating than what we paid all that money for for our Field Team. Any salesperson looking to level-up their game should jump at the chance to be coached by Ken!

Ken is a tremendous sales professional. He continuously exceededed quota month in and month out. Ken provides solutions and value to clients, and wins deals, based on a no-nonsense approach of transparency and mindset! While working with Ken, he would consistently beat out the competition by utilizing a consultative approach and would gain the confidence of the prospect as a trusted advisor. The business he won resulted in record revenue for the company. Each month/quarter you could always count on excellence from Mr. Langwell. Ken is a proven winner with great leadership abilities. He has mentored many of our colleagues on how to suceed in sales and is highly respected by his peers and upper management. He always led by example and preached fundamentals and mindset in selling. “If you’re looking to be coached by one of the best, he is your man!”

Ken is one of the brightest and most accomplished reps I had the pleasure to work with. Ken's achievements speak for themselves; he was a top-performer month after month, quarter after quarter and year after year. In my view, what really set Ken apart, was his unique appraoch to selling, and his genuine willingness to help others around him succeed. Ken would take the time to check in, congratulate on deals or lend a helping hand to win deals. I highly recommend Ken if you're looking for a coach who can actually move the needle for you!

I am grateful to Ken for his leadership and coaching, his guidance and his faith in me. His no-nonsense approach to selling, and his razor sharp focus challenged me to improve both personally and professionally. I recommend Ken enthusiastically without hesitation.

Ken Langwell was the best sales person I have had the opportunity to work with in my 15 year sales career. He was able to focus on the task at hand with amazing determination and tenacity; never allowing a deal to die if there was a sign of life left in it. Ken is also an incredibly principled and loyal person whom I trust completely

I had the pleasure of working with Ken for several years at Lyris. A leader in sales performance and industry knowledge, Ken's true value was far beyond anything any title might suggest. In addition to consistently crushing his sales goals, Ken actively worked with both junior and senior sales reps to help them develop their skills for personal, as well as professional improvement. Working and competing with Ken helped make me a better sales professional!

Ken was one of the hardest working sales reps I ever saw in my career. He understood how to get the right decision maker engaged and followed a very effective sales process that focused on transparency. With several years as a top-producer in enterprise software sales he was a pleasure to work with!

Ken was a very hard-working, committed and resourceful sales executive. He was always digging for new clients, learning about the product, and otherwise engaging in activity to drive more business. He was very knowledgeable about the product and competitive challenges which gave him a huge edge! He was simply a mature, seasoned, diligent, and trustworthy Enterprise salesperson!

I reported directly to Ken in my formative years and had the good fortune to see what a true professional does day in, day out. He conducted business with focus and integrity.Since then, Ken has never hesitated to offer career counseling that has absolutely helped advance my career. Recently, he provided sage advice on how to request and negotiate a fair salary raise. I felt completely prepared to engage in conversation and present my position without arrogance or judgement. The fact-based approach was well received and netted results better than anticipated. I can't speak more highly of Ken and can't recommend him enough if you're navigating career challenges. His experience, integrity and results are above reproach!
