About Keith Robbins 
President & Owner -- Keith Robbins ConsultingJune 2006 - Present Atlanta, GA Assist PCB and EMS companies with the development and execution of growth strategies by providing guidance, experience and on going management involvement in operations; plus recruitment of manufacturer's reps and direct sales individuals and management. Over 37 years I've developed tools that demonstrably generate the results you need from your sales team. My system keeps your key selling resources focused on growing new sources of revenue. When I'm involved, I don't allow focus to fade from the efforts required to identify and reach prospective customers. I guide your people in the field to focus on moving engagements through a specific series of steps that lead to purchase orders. And twice monthly I conduct performance reviews with your sales team, with your sales managers in attendance, to help them overcome obstacles and stay focused on getting to the quoting and booking stages. Action items are generated to be executed by the reps as well as operations personnel. My clients consistently see 20% or more of their bookings being generated by new, targeted accounts. I can identify, qualify and pre-sell manufacturers reps and/or direct sales personnel and get them to join your team. For many years I have recruited, trained and managed sales people; I have hundreds of experienced PCB sales people to approach on your behalf. We should talk about how I can help your business.
