Chuck was our VP of Sales at AppDNA for 3 years and during that span he taught me so many valuable lessons and techniques, that not only helped me personally, but also helped develop a winning sales culture across the country. Chuck has a generous spirit and is a loyal, positive individual. He was the "go-to" guy in our office, both personally and professionally. His strong work ethic has helped him achieve a number of successes in his career. I am always impressed with his drive, determination, and tenaciousness. I highly recommend Chuck

Chuck Brady is a highly driven individual who is genuinely passionate about his work. I worked with Chuck at Futurestate IT where he was VP of Sales. His ability to build rapport with prospects stems from his honest approach to sales and his sincere desire to build long lasting relationships with people based on trust, and that is what turns prospects into customers. This trait was evident in any of the customer meetings that Chuck and I had together. Whatever challenge he is faced with, Chuck will find a way to make it happen. And while he can be counted on to deliver on short term goals, one of his most valuable strengths is that he not only sees the bigger picture, but he will work hard to make that vision a reality. Without hesitation, I would recommend Chuck to any organization lucky enough to have him.

Chuck Brady, Technology Leader & Entrepreneur answered:

Not everyone is independently wealthy or can work without pay. As an executive in a startup you need to make certain sacrifices to keep the momentum going and hopefully you've prepared for that and have some cash flow to pay your bills. However, you can't expect everyone you hire to live by stock alone. There has to be some compensation as the best people out there should be making money at their current position. You have to find the happy medium of stock and cash flow. If your top candidate is the right candidate they should be willing to sacrifice a bit of cash flow to get in at the ground floor and help the organizations grow.
