#87 "You'll Never be in Sales" and "I was Never Right"- Meg Fasy, Founder of FazeFWD & eventsGIG Most People Don't... But You Do!
-
- Self-Improvement
When I first met Meg, she was in catering in Washington, DC. We worked at the same hotel when I was in room sales. A senior leader at one point told her "you'll never be in sales." She used that objection and obstacle to prove to herself that she was quite capable of DOING WHATEVER SHE DESIRED.
Growing up in Philadelphia, she was the youngest of 7 children and was forced to be "independent". She also had to hear from her older brothers and sisters that she was consistently "wrong"! (In a loving way!)
From Vice President of Sales with MPI, to PSAV, to Bellagio- she shined in sales and as a sales leader.
Fast forward, Meg created two companies to solve problems in the meetings and events industry:
"eventsGIG, is the online talent marketplace for the event marketing industry to find and post jobs. eventsGIG connects organizations to top freelance experts for anything you need to execute a live, virtual, or hybrid event.
