In today’s show, Chris interviews Dan Woolford, Director of Business Development, Virox Technologies Inc.
Dan shares his professional journey that commenced right after the Student Works program. Dan’s extraordinary success saw him rise from the position of a sales rep to that of the company’s GM. What were some of the biggest challenges that Dan had to overcome as he transitioned from student life to professional life? And, how did his Student Works stint help him overcome these challenges?
Dan reveals how he ended up working as Fusioncast’s only sales rep. He goes on to explain Fusioncast’s proprietary metal casting process that results in immense cost savings owing to the use of Urethane with bronze.
Even though the company was wildly successful, Dan and other key stakeholders decided to sell the business to an American counterpart that showed a great deal of alignment and synergies. Dan brokered this deal, and eventually ended up working for another company some of the investors of FusionCast also owned.
Why did Dan and his peers sell out their stake? And, why did Dan decide to move on to his new employer, Virox? This segment of the show will interest both entrepreneurs and professionals. This is an interesting case study that shows why and when a strategic sell-out might be the best option forward.
We wrap up this show with Dan sharing some habits and values that he owes his success to. What did Dan have to change about himself as he went from being a university student to a value creator? Topics discussed include the importance of continuous learning, dynamism, and integrity.
Tune in for some excellent insights!
