Building a Consistent Scalable Sales Machine

This coaching series is for executives who are responsible for growing sales, such as VP or Director of Sales or CEO/Founder

This 7-session coaching/mentoring series is for executives who are responsible for growing sales, such as VP or Director of Sales or CEO/Founder, as well as those that are being groomed to take on that role.

We’ll do a gap analysis on your sales organization’s prowess, help you find parts of your revenue projections that are subject to failure (or don’t make sense), help you assess the skills of your key players related to attaining revenue, and work with you on various aspects of growing your sales team and implementing sales tools.

You’ll walk away with a custom sales blueprint for yourself and your team including tools that will help you take what you’ve learned and implement for your own organization to create your own 360-degree Sales MMachine™ or enhance the sales machine you already have in place.

Seven Tuesdays - September 9 through November 11, 2019 (7 sessions over 10 weeks) You can take all seven sessions online -- or if you're near Pittsburgh, spend 3 of the sessions with your peers.

You’ll walk away with a custom sales blueprint for yourself and your team including tools that will help you take what you’ve learned and implement for your own organization to create your own 360-degree sales MMachine or enhance the sales machine you already have in place.

How it works

We recognize that your time as executive or entrepreneur is valuable and that you travel often. So we conduct the seven sessions over 10 weeks (September 9 through November 11). Three of them are full 3.5 hour sessions, four of them are 90-minute lunch-&-learns. (Think of it like your college courses, where you had lectures and break-outs.)

You can take all seven sessions live online; they’ll happen on Tuesdays – or if you’re near Pittsburgh, you can join us live in our conference facility. When you register, you'll let us know whether you intend to participate in the Pittsburgh Conference Center for those three sessions or take all online.

All sessions are on TUESDAY. Times vary by date so please note the times for each session.

Our goal is to give you the highest attainment with the lowest impact on your schedule.

These sessions include instructor led discussions as well as tools and exercises that you’ll use interactively – so you’ll be able to ask questions and learn from the experiences of other participants.

Why would I send more than one person?

Some companies are looking to grow their organizational expertise by adding skills to existing team members. You might want your CEO or technical founder to better understand how to incorporate sales into the organization, your VP of sales to help your sales growth or to fix existing sales team issues, and key sales contributors who would be helpful if they had a bigger picture of the way your organization can grow its sales prowess.
