The D2D Experts Team recently sat down with Zach, who shared his journey, the highs, the lows, and the determination that took him to the top.
Now, you might be wondering what’s so special about Zach.
Zach Kinzel is a pest control sales rep and a Golden Door Award 2023 winner.
The Golden Door Award is given to the top sales rep in each industry category who sells over 500k in one year. It’s not easy; only a few people have done it.
Zach was one of them.
For Zach, it all began three years ago when he couldn’t afford to attend D2DCon. A spark of ambition took over Zach, who was amazed by the winners, their stories, and their achievements after watching the Golden Door Awards ceremony.
This prompted him to set a goal of 650k for the next year and write it down everywhere.
The driven sales rep even messaged Sam Taggart, the founder of The D2D Experts and the host of D2DCon, and told him his plans to become the top rep and get on the D2DCon stage next year.
Zach’s journey is beyond inspiring for anyone who wants to get involved in sales skill development to reach new heights.
