She knows how to sell.  Period.  And she knows about brands, branding and building one that lasts.

Kraig Kann spends time with Jill Bauer … or as she refers to herself, Just Jill.  Her long run as a mainstay host at QVC and one of the most successful and popular in the network’s history (she sold more than 3 billion dollars in products during more than two decades on air) is a tribute to her style of sale and not the products she sold.

Perhaps you’ve seen her in one of her spots on NBC’s Today show.  Or perhaps you already follow “Just Jill” on one of her social platforms. As impressive as her resume is her openness about pivoting into the uncertain world post television.  Her journey had fear and a bunch of belief.

Join Kraig and Jill Bauer on this edition of Tracks to Success.

Grab a seat for this one!  Kraig Kann chats up one of the most innovative leaders in the entertainment business.  And he's actually behind your behind.

Jeff Ianello is the head of sales in all of North America for Seat Geek.  He spent more than a dozen years on the team and league side of sports and now he's focused on live event technology and creating a better ticketing experience for consumers on all levels.

You'll love his energy for your visit to the stadium, arena or theater.  And his transparency about the challenges of his personal climb to the top of his industry is inspiring.  He talks to Kraig about the real value in marketing and communication of products and services and why leadership is important at every level.

Years at the NBA league office in marketing and business operations followed his years with the Phoenix Suns where he was the Senior VP of Sales. 

Perhaps most compelling in the entire conversation is the challenge he faced in being a leader in his own home and how a personal pivot has led to the best job he's ever had and enthusiasm for making the ease of each ticket you purchase the gateway to an amazing consumer experience.
