About Us
We believe in people.
Optitude was founded on the core belief that whether you're talking about an organization, or the individuals that make it up, success always starts on the inside. Our approach to sales leadership is designed to help you achieve your goals by empowering the most important asset you have: your people. With over 20 years of boots-on-the-ground experience in sales leadership, we’re not afraid to roll up our sleeves and level with your team to help you create the change you want to see from the Inside Up.

Brian Kerlin
FOUNDER / PRESIDENT
Brian grew up in western Pennsylvania, in the heart of the "steel-city", where blue-collar-hustle is a way of life. His parents taught him that if you want something in life, you have to go out and earn it the old-fashioned way, by working hard every day. Brian’s experience, spanning over 20 years with top-tier fortune 50 companies, is complimented by his genuine grit and approachable attitude, giving him a unique capacity to lead others to get things done when it really counts. Brian has lived, worked and traveled throughout the United States, but he’s been calling Denver home for the past 10 years.
