What makes selling fun? Getting invited to board room discussions, strategic planning sessions, and being called on to help solve a business' most critical problems can make selling one of the most fulfilling careers there is. No one wants to be treated like, "Just another vendor"; so stop being a vendor and get serious about meeting business needs with technology and security.

This is the most amazing class for selling almost any technology that involves security. For the past 9 Years this has been my most popular workshop and I continue to hear extremely positive feed back from those who are attending. Years ago I became disenchanted with traditional sales approaches. Every presentation looks the same, sounds the same, and is the same. Look at your Power Point slides - "Here's who we are, here's how big we are, and here's our certifications...blah blah blah." I spoke with a CIO just last week and he agreed, he's heard the same pitch a thousand times and it's boring.

This class changes everything - I believe there is a better way...and I want to inspire you to go out with a message that matters! Doug Baker, Owner of ICE says, "Your stuff works...I've doubled my gross profit in just one year." Mike Ritsema, President of i3 Business solutions says, "I just had the best sales call I've had in 20 years because of the things you've taught us." Don't wait, join me for this upcoming workshop...here's the details.

Here is What People Are Saying About it...

"This training is phenomenal. Dave presents the information in a simple, clear and compelling manner. After the first 20 minutes, I knew I would purchase the recorded version of “From Vendor to Advisor.” Not only was the training excellent, but the MP3 series is an amazing resource that I have gone back to again and again. If you are in IT Security Sales, this is a must have for your own career development." - Dorothy Burrell, Account Manager, Accuvant

"I highly recommend David. While working at Praxis Computing, Inc, David was hired as my sales coach and business planning mentor. He played a significant role in our success selling IT security equipment and services. The "Cloud and House" presentation that he devised was implemented throughout our process from seminars and events to board room presentations and deal negotiations. Furthermore David is extremely efficient and helped me to successfully leverage my calendar utilizing time and work flow management to increase performance. In conclusion, David Stelzl's advice is extremely valuable."

“As a BDM for Cisco I have always known security and always tried how I could make selling of security portfolio simple. Being part of the worlds largest security vendor with USD 2 billion turn over actually makes life even more complex as the portfolio itself is extremely hard to manage.

All of this until I met David as our mentor, coach, presenter etc for 3 days in bangalore training organized by Cisco for us the BDM. It is only fair to say he made & helped us to make sense of the madness & gave us practical approach on position and managing the sales cycles of security.
During the 3 days I got to know David on a personal level as well & I understood his wisdom is even beyond security.
I have invited him to Sri Lanka and hope he will oblige.”

"This program has truely given me a consultative approach to business. Instead of struggling to figure out ways to talk technical to c-level individuals, I now have the tools I need to demonstrate the value of security and what we offer our managed IT clients. As a result, I am more comfortable talking directly to the c-level." - Kemper Brown Jr., Electronic Office.
