About Bill List

As a network solution executive, I work closely with sales teams to help grow the profitable sales of infrastructure solutions within the Southeast and central region. I\'m a trusted pre-sales resource that utilizes my technology background to lead the consultative discovery of our client/prospect’s business goals, objectives, and challenges to translate them into effective infrastructure solutions. I consistently achieve and exceed sales and profit goals through joint account planning, partner teaming (internal & external), on-site client interface/visits, engagement/solution development and implementation support/follow-up.
