Serving Up Success: From Court to Client and Kitchen

Welcome to my professional corner of the web. I’m Zane Huber, a competitive salesman who has spent over 30 years helping medical practices streamline their operations with cutting-edge EMR and billing solutions.

Sales for me is not just about numbers, it’s about understanding people and solving real problems. That drive to compete and improve has also led me to lifelong passions off the clock: chasing a tennis ball across the court, experimenting in the kitchen, and traveling to places that spark new ideas.

Interestingly, the word serve connects the three worlds I love most: winning deals, cooking meals, and playing tennis.

Serving Clients in Sales

In sales, “serving” is more than closing a deal, it’s understanding the unique needs of each practice and presenting solutions that truly help. Like a perfectly placed tennis serve, the best pitch requires preparation, precision, and follow-through. My role isn’t just to sell; it’s to serve physicians and administrators so their workdays become easier and more efficient.

Serving a Meal in the Kitchen

Cooking for family or friends is a different kind of service. It’s about anticipating preferences, balancing flavors, and delivering something that delights. Just as I tailor a proposal for a client, I season a dish for the people at my table. In both cases, the reward comes when others feel cared for and satisfied.
Serving the Ball on the Court

On the tennis court, everything starts with the serve. A strong serve sets the tone for the rally and demands focus and strategy. The discipline of practice, the mental preparation before each toss, and the commitment to consistent improvement mirror the persistence needed to excel in sales and in the kitchen.

Whether I’m presenting EMR solutions, plating a meal, or sending a ball across the net, serving is about intentionality. You visualize the outcome, line up your approach, and commit to the motion. The goal is always to create a positive experience for someone else, clients, dinner guests, or a doubles partner.
Serving well—whether in business, cooking, or sport—is ultimately about connection. It’s the satisfaction of knowing that your effort makes someone else’s day a little better.
