"Kirk is by far the most disciplined and strategic rep in my district. Kirk quickly advanced to district trainer due to his ability to train with dead on aim at where our reps needed it most. You will not be disappointed if you bring on an employee such as Kirk Miller. You will admire his work ethic and at the same time appreciate his talent he brings to the table day in and day out."

“Kirk is a proven achiever working diligently with outstanding results. He is a very bright and outgoing person. A great mix of task focus and people skills”

“Kirk is a very driven individual. He possesses the necessary skills that most, if not all, people Managers look for; tenacity, commitment, knowledge, accountability, and incredible performance against his goals. I enjoyed managing Kirk while he was at Dell and would recommend him for any endeavor that comes his way.”

“Kirk is a reliable and dedicated sales professional. During the time that I worked with Kirk he excelled in both the relationship and attainment sides of the business. It was a pleasure to work with him.”

“Kirk is beyond competent in his role and in fact could definitely excel in much higher end sales positions. I would highly recommend Kirk as an impact player and as a team player of the highest integrity.”

“Kirk has a gift to offer a plethora of inspiration and guidance to others. He values every business and personal relationship that he continues to build and nurture them. He shines helping others by giving insightful, strategic, and successful solutions for their success. He continues to impress me with his passions in life. I recommend Kirk for anyone who wants someone who is extremely dedicated, passionate, and works 110%

“Kirk is a true team player with a strong goal setting acumen. He is extremely detail oriented and prides himself in delivering work that exceeds expectations. He would be an asset to any organization.”

“Kirk Miller is a very determined and sales focused individual. I can attest personally that he hates to lose, and so he always finds new ways to win. I notice he cracks jokes and smiles in the face of pressure. He is a person that can be trusted and respected, and I am glad to have Kirk on my team.”

“Kirk quickly ramped up, building a large sales funnel and becoming one of the top-level producers in a short time frame.”

“Kirk is a sales driven individual who quickly demonstrated his talent by becoming the sales representative with the highest sales in a difficult industry.”

“Kirk's greatest attribute at Janus was his ability to contribute outside of his role. His vision was bigger than his title, and as a result we had the opportunity to work together on a number of projects. I know his input was terrifically valuable to not only me, but to Senior Management as well.”

“Kirk was hired to manage and build the online job boards for multiple associations in different industries. While I did not manage Kirk directly, I was able to see that Kirk managed his time wisely and could be very flexible as goals and targets changed based on industry changes and company needs. Kirk has the ability to sell either in the office or from home and his experience requires little handholding which for a smaller company with a small sales force, that was a nice to have.
