Read the Backstory of Andy Whyte, MEDDICC Founder

Hey there, I'm Andy Whyte and I'm a fan of sales. I'm the founder of MEDDICC™ and the author of the five-star rated “MEDDICC’ book, I have a sales career spanning over 18 years! I used MEDDIC in multiple companies as an individual contributor and sales leader and even implemented MEDDPICC into two SaaS organizations. People who know me know that I like to say “Nobody ever regrets qualifying out” a lot, and I have a passion for the science and art of sales. Away from the day-to-day, I practice my most important role as DAD where I'm a chef, sports coach, taxi and cleaner.
