Patti Pokorchak
Business Coach & Consultant in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Patti Pokorchak is an award winning marketing and sales executive, with 30 plus years of experience at IBM, Siemens, and many start-up companies. She has been self-employed since 1992 and helped start and run a 7-figure 20 employee software company for 10 years before opening a thriving garden centre and hobby farm.
Patti was NOT a born salesperson. She was a programmer, and started out shy and introverted. Making six-figures by the time she was 25, she decided that there had to be more to life than climbing the corporate ladder. Wanting to live a life with no regrets, she left for a year of travel in Europe and returned 9 years later to Ottawa. Finally, after a 30 year detour, she returned to her hometown of Toronto!
Patti says “If I can be a farmer, then you can be anything you want to be — with some basic sales and marketing skills that is.” She loves to turn passions into profit with her proven practical advice!
