  • Breaking Barriers in Recruitment | Dana Barnett
    Apr 23 2025

    🎙️ In this eye-opening episode of Women of Influence, we sit down with Dana Barnett, VP of Sales at High Ticket Teams, who's revolutionizing how businesses build their commission-based sales teams while juggling life as a mother of four.

    "If you want something done right, do it yourself" - it's a mindset that Dana Barnett, VP of Sales at High Ticket Teams, knows all too well. In this episode of Women of Influence, Dana opens up about her journey from being a self-proclaimed control freak to a pioneering force in sales recruitment.

    What makes this conversation special is Dana's raw honesty about her transformation. As the first female on Hayward Holdings' commercial sales team, she didn't just navigate a male-dominated industry - she revolutionized it. But it was motherhood, specifically having twins, that taught her the most profound lesson about letting go of control and embracing the power of trust.

    The heart of our discussion centers on how Dana is transforming the way businesses build their sales teams. Through High Ticket Teams, she's pioneered an approach that saves companies over 100 hours per hire while ensuring they find the perfect match for their commission-based sales positions. Her innovative use of LinkedIn's platform and deep understanding of the recruitment landscape is changing the game for businesses of all sizes.

    What truly stands out is Dana's ability to balance it all - leading a revolutionary business approach while raising four children. Her insights on delegation, trust, and strategic growth aren't just business lessons; they're life lessons that any leader can apply.

    This episode is a must-listen for anyone who's ever struggled with letting go of control, whether in business or life. Dana's story proves that sometimes, our biggest perceived weakness can become our greatest strength when we learn to transform it.
