He is the creator of the Top 1% Academy, where he trains on how to sell to buyers, whether they be CEOs, business owners, or entrepreneurs, and how to be in the top 1% of sales earners doing so. Doug is also the international best-selling author of the book Win-Win Selling: Unlocking Your Power for Profitability by Resolving Objections.
