In fact, quite the opposite...

From the Desk of Justyn Sprinkle Franko :

Hi,

Let me say, that you will succeed if your determination to succeed to is strong enough. Against all odds, the best stories are not the ones where the protagonist  wins an easy fight. The best stories are those where the main character makes horrendous mistakes falls on his face, loses his ego, and and still comes out on top becoming the person he's always wanted to be. 

I’ve always been excited about entrepreneurship, business and being the best person I can by learning and improving myself and seeing the world for what it is and understanding what that means.

Its my life, my hobby, and my passion. Some talk football for hours… I talk marketing systems, kpi’s, news, health, law. I care about being the best man I can. I care about helping my fellow man do the same. I was drawn to some of the craziest problems in the World. I was drawn to these areas because entrepreneurs change the world. That’s what I wanted to do. I wanted to effect change. Call me a crazy millennial, or step back and watch me work. 

I am relentlessly driven to be the best man that I can possibly be in this world and I have a electrifying passion to share my skills, gifts, and experience's with my fellow neighbors of the world from a place of compassion and kindness.​I was born in Eau Claire, WI and as a native to the city, my first job was selling vacuums door to door. I realized I loved business and sales and early on recognized my passion for helping people. I have long held entrepreneurs, as the movers and shakers in industry, in high esteem. Without a clear path to a career in business – I pursued a military career out of high school. After graduating, I served in the Navy with ambitions to become a Navy SEAL, however what I thought was going to be just a physical challenge — re-shaped my entire life. I was reclassified as a Ceremonial Guardsman in D.C. where I completed my service. What I learned would mold me forever – as I learned the value of perseverance and discipline which I carried forward to a career in sales with a focus on recruitment, training, developing & retaining. With an honorable discharge in hand in 2009, I put my new found determination to work in the deregulated energy industry which allowed me to travel across the US and work in over 20 states and to develop my  skills.

I was able to grow from my start in door to door sales to the point where I founded a sales and marketing company specializing in B2C and B2B verticals in energy, solar, and security.  At our largest, I personally led a team of 45 professional sales consultants who were my direct reports. I finished in the industry by exiting my company and supporting the new owners with the acquisition for a brief time.

During this period, I began to offer consulting services to assist clients in business development with a primary focus in the area of sales, marketing, recruiting, training, and retention. I worked in multiple sectors with clients in; Consumer Services, Financial Services, Investing Energy Markets, Security, Health services, and 

Over the years I had done 2 thousand  interviews, Trained over 1,000 People, and did over 25,000 Presentations.  I had helped recruit and train so many people and placed team members for clients I desired to become one of the best. 

To support my efforts, I pursued a number of Personal Development programs (Landmark Forum, Sterling Relationship Institute, Dale Carnegie Training, Sales Trainings, Coaching Training, NLP Training) and received many sales related accolades from clients.

I founded Trash Zero with a technical partner with specific intellectual property in the Waste Management Sector in 2017. I raised commitments for over 8 million dollars and negotiated contracts with Phoenix, AZ while working in collaboration with the City Resource Innovation and Solutions Network incubator. As part of my efforts at Trash Zero, I was able to get my foot in the door to meet with Government Officials in the Virgin Islands to begin talks around opening a waste management facility. My role included negotiations with Waste Management and Government officials though ultimately our RFP was not selected and for technical reasons the solution we were researching was not feasible. When this information became clear, I eventually chose to exit the firm.

Confident in my ability to help businesses grow based on results in prior consulting roles and my own 6 figure businesses and 7 figure clients with combined totals in over $100 million in revenue between myself and team members under my management over the life of my career in sales; I founded a Business Development Consulting Practice.

I love helping people and look to support awakening business owners and professionals in unlocking possibilities both from a personal and professional standpoint.

I work with clients on a consulting basis daily in my firm to help them unlock possibilities and show them how to to live, feel, and be better.
