Of course! Just as professionals in other industries invest in continuing education, if you’re serious about your professional development, this training can reinforce core skills while introducing new ones. Surveys from the many experienced salespeople who’ve attended How to Win Funds and Influence People tell us this is the best training they’ve had, and they learned many new skills.

Students tell us the most beneficial part of the workshop is the role-play. They love hearing about a skill, watching it demonstrated, and then immediately practicing with other students. It’s a unique and powerful learning experience you can’t get in a seminar or by watching a video. Of course, all the interaction makes this workshop one of the best networking events you’ll ever attend. You’ll have more meaningful conversations with more interesting people in just two days than most people get in a year sitting listening to lectures at most conferences. And perhaps the most powerful and paradigm shifting skill you’ll learn is how to sell without knowing what your product or service is. It’s why these skills are so effective in ANY industry.

We’ll provide a workbook with worksheets and note pages. Bring your favorite pen and a highlighter. Dress professionally, but comfortable. Bring business cards, but no flyers or pamphlets. Breath mints are probably smart, and of course, your big smile and a great attitude! Once you’re registered, we’ll send emails with information about the hotel and related details. Please note there is no personal audio or video recording permitted.

If you attend, or if you don’t? To paraphrase the late, great Jim Rohn, “The training you don’t get can’t help you.” Consider this: If enhanced selling skills will increase your income just $100,000 per year, every year your wait to get trained costs you $100,000. Of course, like any investment, whether a new computer, a college degree, or a rental property… there’s time and money you invest in pursuit of those profits. Your actual investment depends on when you register. The sooner you register, the more you save. You save even more when you bring a partner.

Yes. Unfortunately, due to the interactive nature of the training, and restrictions related to each venue for any specific event, workshops usually cap out at between 150 – 250 people.

The next workshop is in Phoenix, Arizona. The hotel information, along with a group rate registration link, is provided after you’re registered. It’s STRONGLY recommended that all participants stay at the host hotel, as we start each day early, and networking lasts into the evening. There’s just enough time to sleep, but not much to commute.

If you’re coming in from out of town, it’s best to fly into Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) Thursday afternoon before the event and depart on Sunday after the event. This allows you to participate in the informal no-host Thursday night reception, both days of the workshop, and the final Saturday night networking. It’s also a good idea to use Sunday morning to summarize your thoughts and action plans before heading home and getting back to the daily grind.

No. We’re working on a self-study course to help students prepare for each workshop, but due to the highly interactive and participatory nature of the training, it doesn’t lend itself to virtual attendance. You want to be in the room, fully engaged, networking and interacting with other students in the role-play.

Yes! In fact, students tell us this is one of the BEST networking events they’ve even attended. Students are organized at round tables, six students per table. Each lecture includes breaks for tabletop discussions and role-play (it’s fun!), and we mix the seating up multiple times each day. So you’ll meet virtually everyone in the room by the end.

In addition to the in-session networking, we have three separate no-host receptions. The first is the night before the event starts, then after day 1, and then after day 2. Most people stay overnight, so you can have the opportunity to get together on your own on Sunday morning before heading home. Also, meals are on your own, so you can extend strategic invitations to interesting people to join you for breakfast, lunch, or dinner during your stay. It’s great to bring business cards, but please no flyers or pamphlets. We’re not here to sell each other anything. Just make friends and stay in touch. One way to sharpen your skills and stay connected to fellow students is to join the Sales Pro Mentoring Club. You’ll get two one-hour interactive group mentoring calls per month and access to the club library.
