“Sales is the fuel of any organization.
A company, like a car, isn't going anywhere
until you fuel it up”

Pat Dolan knows a thing or two about sales. In fact, he’s sold everything from stocks and commercial real estate to staffing and procurement services. And with that well-rounded background in several industries, he pulls from years of experience to help small businesses grow in their fields and reach the success they once
only dreamed of.

In his presentation “ClickPoint,” Dolan teaches how to effectively hire the right sales people and what you need to do to have a successful onboarding process to ensure your employees become productive sooner. In “Selling From the Top Down,” he explains how to bypass the traditional sales ladder to get to the decision maker quicker.

At Express Employment Professionals, Dolan works as a consultant and business coach in the Chicago area—however, his ultimate goal is to help Franchisees build their businesses and achieve their entrepreneurial goals.

Before coming to Express, Dolan worked on the trading floor at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, then transitioned into selling commercial real estate with Cushman & Wakefield, and online media with Reuters and Dow Jones. After catching the entrepreneurial bug, he purchased a promotional products franchise in Manhattan. After years in New York, Dolan returned to Chicago to join the family business—staffing.

Dolan received a Bachelor of Arts in Economics at the College of the Holy Cross and earned a Master of Business Administration from Northwestern University. He is also a dedicated contributor to his community, serving as the past chairman to the charity, Saint Joseph Services, which offers afterschool activities and summer camps for at-risk children.
