His company specializes in equipping B2B consultants, coaches, and advisors with tools and strategies for predictable business growth. With a solid background in sales that includes generating over $1 million in recurring revenue from IT solutions, he seamlessly transitioned into consulting to help other businesses scale effectively. Born on April 3, 1992, in Chicago, Illinois, Breven pursued his higher education at DePaul University. Here, he delved into a business curriculum that covered essential areas such as strategy, marketing, and leadership—skills that proved crucial in his later career. The university experience also honed his abilities in communication and leadership, setting a firm foundation for his business philosophy. Upon graduation, Breven commenced his career as a sales representative for a Chicago-based IT solutions company. This role challenged him to cold-call potential clients and forge new business relationships. His standout achievement came from his initiative to engage businesses within the iconic Willis Tower, where he effectively secured over $1 million in recurring revenue, leading to his rapid promotion to manager of the sales department. Driven by his success in sales and a vision for more sustainable business growth, Breven ventured into consulting. He focused on assisting small to medium-sized businesses in refining their sales processes and amplifying their marketing efforts, always with the belief that the right tools could propel any business to growth. December 2020 marked a significant milestone as Breven co-founded B2B Client Acquisition with partners from Chicago and Tampa. This growth consulting firm is built on a foundation of delivering tangible results, not just advice. It's distinguished by its commitment to tailored strategies that align closely with the specific needs of each client, a contrast to the industry's more generic approaches. B2B Client Acquisition prides itself on offering two primary services: Corporate ClientFinder and ScaleSmart leadership. The former ensures consistent connections with potential clients, while the latter boosts the leadership capabilities of business executives, fostering long-term success. As CEO, Breven leads with transparency, accountability, and collaboration. He remains closely engaged with his team and clients to ensure that every need is met and every opportunity for growth is explored. His leadership is not only about overseeing operations but also about actively involved client interactions and strategic decision-making. Breven is also deeply committed to giving back to the community. He regularly contributes to Compassion International and local food drives, reflecting his belief in the importance of positive community impact. Outside the office, Breven's hobbies, such as playing guitar, golfing, fishing, and snowmobiling, help him maintain a balanced lifestyle. He is a dedicated fan of the Chicago Bears, rarely missing a game. At home, he is a devoted husband to his wife, Rose, and a loving father to their two children, emphasizing the importance of family amidst his professional endeavors. Through his leadership at B2B Client Acquisition and his community involvement, Breven Pole continues to inspire and lead with integrity and passion.

  • Achille Castiglioni
    @achillecastiglioni
    Achille Castiglioni, an Italian designer known for turning everyday industrial items into modern masterpieces, was born in 1913 in Milan. He studied architecture and then began designing with his older brothers, Livio and Pier Giacomo. In 1945, Achille and Pier began designing on their own. The tight-knit nature of the brothers' collaboration extended to their relationships with manufacturers. The duo's best-known work includes the Arco lamp (based on a streetlight) and the Toio lamp (inspired by a car headlight) for Flos and the Sella seat (which features a bicycle seat supported by a pole) and the Mezzadro stool (which incorporates a tractor seat) for Zanotta. After Pier suffered an early death in 1968, Achille continued to design solo until his own passing in 2002.
