“Just a few times anyone has the opportunity to share professional time with any excellent fellow, and later you realize how exceptional he was. One of these rare opportunities was the lucky time to meet Mark Franklin, when both were in Piaggio Asia Pacific some years ago.

With just a few resources he was able to create a full sales strategy, showing also a really proactive behaviour to push internally and convince with clear arguments reasons to deploy his vision. Once applied, real life also confirmed it with increasing sales and partners opinion improvement.

Apart from that, his charming personality and warm friendship makes for sure a person that everybody likes to be near. Probably this fact combined with his huge professional network, helps to be in my opinion one of the most important prescriber in the motorbike sector worldwide.”
