TESTIMONIALS
Zack is one of those rare individuals who delivers his deep commercial savvy with integrity, enthusiasm, and kindness. That’s a winning formula. He brings partners together in a way that’s brilliantly strategic, and also genuinely human. I’d work with him again in a heartbeat.

The words that come to mind when I think about Zack are "a step ahead." In the years that I worked with him, first at Rodale and more recently at Outside, Zack never showed up for a meeting without an idea or solution that demonstrated creativity, foresight, and preparation -- he was always a step (or three) ahead in thinking through the best answer to our clients' needs. And that was matched by an ability to communicate, negotiate, and deliver that rank in the very top of the sales leaders I've worked with. What a privilege to have worked with someone who's a true professional and good all-around human.

I've had the pleasure of doing business with Zack on multiple occasions over the past 15 years, for both my own events and for clients' events. He knows the endurance/active lifestyle space as well as anyone, and knows how to craft a partnership that works for all sides. Most importantly, he does it with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. Looking forward to the opportunity of working with him again soon.
