“My company was facing enormous

pressure to achieve revenue goals

in a down economy. Oil prices had

dropped from $100 to $28 per

barrel, and many of my customers’

businesses were in decline. With the

help of Truman Morgan Group, we

reinvented our sales and marketing

strategy which enabled us to

flourish in spite of the market

downturn. We now have control of

our sales process activities and are

consistently growing our customer

base.”

Shawn Matjazic-Owner & CEO
