One of the reasons I like doing this podcast is I get to meet some really impressive people, Tom Alaimo is one of them. An accomplished podcaster and fan of 90s Rap and Hip/Hop, we had a lot of fun on this one. He currently plies the sales trade at one of the hottest start ups in tech, but got his start in college selling CUTCO door-to-door!

Know who else started out selling CUTCO? Adam Aarons, CRO at OKTA. He’s done pretty well so, Tom, can’t wait to see you eventually perched at The Top. 

Come with, its a good one.
