Ian Benouis

Recommendations

• ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ via linkedin

  Ian Benouis and I were colleagues at eLaw, where I handled business development, and he was National Sales Manager. He is one of the most perceptive, intelligent and entrepreneurial lawyers I have had the pleasure of working with in my career. A passionate advocate of whatever he determines to be the correct way to approach a problem, Ian effectively communicates the reasons for his position on any issue -- all in a manner that is sensitive to his listeners' concerns and interests. In addition, he is a great team player. I would gladly work with Ian again, either as a colleague or as his client.

  Ian is an absolute professional and testimonial to the successful sales director he is. Truly in the top 10% of his peer group. A pleasure to work with and know. A true mentor, motivator and team leader. If I were looking for other opportunities, the first person I would contact and want to work for would be Ian. Brad Larkin Bridgeway Software

  Ian was always classified by his calm and composed personality even on the most challenging sales cycles. There was assurance in his voice when he spoke with prospects that came from his vast experience, he had a method to each sales cycle right from identifying the key players, client needs and mapping it to the product strengths and understanding the competition. It was a pleasure to work with Ian and I would love the opportunity to work with him again.

  Ian is a dedicated, passionate team player. As an individual, he brings a deep combination of diverse experiences with specific expertise in high-tech software and intellectual property fields.

  Ian has one of the most strategic and innovative sales minds that I have ever met. He has a very unique and actionable approach to his business that drives both his colleagues and his customers to operational excellence. Ian just closed a very mission critical deal for our company with a Fortune 500 company and did it with ease and grace. His singular combination of skills and talents include strong leadership (no doubt gets that from his Military experience), strategic thinking, sales creativity, and the ability to execute. I highly recommend Ian for any sales and operational leadership position requiring motivating and leading people, developing both strategic and tactical plans, working at high levels in customer accounts, and managing a variety of sales/operational models including direct, channel, outsource or 3rd party partners.

  I worked with Ian for the better part of 3 years while at Master Data Center (Thomson IP Management Services). He is a seasoned sales professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. He also brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in Legal and Technology that provided the best insight into his client needs. This enables him to really speak to clients in ways that ensures successful business partnerships and lasting relationships. He is that rare salesman who can actually make the delivery activities of an engagement much easier. Ian is a great asset to any company!

  Ian consistently delivers results with a towering sense of purpose and integrity. Our verticals (IP and Contracts) were constantly compared for sales performance by our C-level, and instead of focusing on the competition, Ian looked for ways our verticals could grow the overall business together. Also, his strong relationships with outside partners opened opportunities our company could not have found alone. I cannot recommend someone more highly, and would work with Ian again in a heartbeat.

  I worked with Ian at SnapNames and was well-acquainted with his activities there after I had moved on. He was always professional, unfailingly courteous, and quite effective in the work of sales. He had great industry contacts and always illustrated a real savvy for managing relationships and, as this testimonial over six years after we last saw each other attests, personal friendships too.
