Jakob Austad

Logan

Summary

Dynamic sales leader with a proven track record at Fox Pest Control, driving a million in sales within four months. Expert in team motivation and goal achievement, fostering high-performing teams through innovative coaching and performance evaluations. Skilled in decision-making and problem-solving, consistently exceeding targets while promoting a culture of collaboration and growth. Here at DaBella, I have grown Logan, UT canvass team from one of the worst in the company to a top 5 van in NIS in 2025. I have never dipped below standards, and have broken the previous record along with my own records 6 times in issued leads and 5 times in canvass NIS. I have duplicated myself in my team members, allowing them to carry on my legacy even when I went to help Minneapolis. While there, I sacrificed my time and relations at home to create a culture of winners in the canvass department. With the guidance I have given to my inner circle, and focusing on leaders, I have produced a replacement for myself, along with a CM for Provo. Logan office may be small, but we have proven that it is a giant when under correct leadership.
