Kudos...

  • The KickStart Alliance team helped us get to market quickly and establish a credible presence. For the past 18 months, they have been a part of our family, rolling up their sleeves to help us do what needed to get done - positioning and messaging, marketing strategy, and a broad variety of hands-on implementation. They literally helped us "kickstart" our business.
    Preston Roper, Former EVP of Corp. Dev. and Ops, Tioga Energy
  • Mike Gospe did a fabulous job helping us prepare for and execute our first Customer Advisory Board (CAB). He invested time to understand our business and rolled up his sleeves to work along side our team. The result was a world-class event that our customers are still talking about.

His ability to understand our business, our products, and our customers is what distinguishes KickStart Alliance. Mike’s leadership and perspective were instrumental in helping us design and execute a worldclass, global Customer Advisory Board (CAB) program.

  • I found KickStart Alliance a wonderful organization to work with as we created our sales organization. They brought ideas, experience and insight into the entire sales organization that jump-started us 12 months ahead. There is no doubt that we would use them again and would highly recommend Janet Gregory and her team.
    John Fallou, CEO, Resolute Solutions Corp.
  • KickStart Alliance helped us focus our lead generation and selling efforts on a few key industries and horizontals that offer the greatest opportunity for us. The targeted sales presentations and sales tools they developed helped our sales team refocus their efforts on high-value opportunities.
