After that, Barry took on many different challenges in the business world. He was the Vice President of Sales for a billion-dollar international company. He also tackled another start-up company, building their sales to $9M in just fifteen months.Currently, Barry is a success mentor and trusted advisor, offering counsel and guidance to both private individuals and corporations.
