Author, Speaker, Entrepreneur, Coach, Investor, Super Connector
My name is Kirk Barnes and I help organizations by giving their people the tools they need to believe in themselves, overcome their fears and become not only comfortable, but proficient in selling themselves and their organization. As someone that has built his career on networking and relationships, I have developed and executed the skill sets that are critical, yet for many, are the most difficult to acquire. Allow me to help you and your employees learn how to network with intention by gaining the confidence they need all by learning how to sell.
I am also the Co-Founder and President of TransPharMed, an international sales excellence firm that combines selling skills and networking to accelerate the sales cycle of technology & innovation. I have contributed to the growth and success of individuals, startups, venture capital firms and major corporations.
I am dedicated to providing people like you with access to the knowledge, experience and skills that I have developed throughout my journey. I have experienced and learned from my trials and triumphs, failures and successes during my journey from corporate career to entrepreneurship.
My career path makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, yet the cumulative experiences provide me with the background that will resonate with a broad audience, including you. I am extremely fortunate that all things have come together to allow me the privilege of partnering with you along your journey to achieving and exceeding your dreams.
Whether you are a contributor to a company, an entrepreneur, a startup founder or just someone that wants to sharpen their skill set in life and business, you have come to the right place.
Through my experience, I have created books, courses and content that will help you sharpen and focus your L.E.N.S. skills, which stands for Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Networking and Sales Excellence.
These skills universally not only can be used in any profession, they also apply to your work as an employee or a business owner, young or seasoned.
