In today’s interview, Christian, Levi and Ben discuss:

1. Operating under a ‘team model’ rather than a traditional ‘free-for-all’ sales structure. “Our teams actually share their commissions…it’s our biggest point of difference.”

2. Identifying the personalities of each team member and playing to their strengths to get the best outcomes for vendors.

3. Hiring new team members and including everyone in the interview process to ensure a good cultural fit.

4. Living the coastal lifestyle and connecting with the community via grassroots events, sponsorships and marketing initiatives.
