IF YOU ARE COACHABLE, HAVE THE DESIRE TO GET BETTER AT SALES, & $6.67/DAY, THEN MY INNER CIRCLE WILL MOST LIKELY HELP YOU SELL MORE, FASTER, WITH LESS STRESS ALMOST...
OVERNIGHT!
"My approach to sales and marketing has enabled my wife to stay at home since 1997 as we raised seven kids based solely on my ability to sell. I teach what works. It's rarely 'bleeding-edge'...it's never manipulative or hypnotic or mumbo-jumbo...I've worked with CRMs and sales technology since 1998...so I'm not afraid of tech, I just don't worship or push it on you. If you are a decent person and you're coachable and can focus longer than a TikTubeFaceX reel, then it is probably quite likely...maybe even highly likely...that I can help you work half as hard and sell twice as much in just a matter of months, if not weeks."
Dear Fellow Salesperson,
If you want the "superpower" to be in total control of your income, your life, your emotions, and even your health, then this group will show you how.
Here's the 411:
I created this reassuringly expensive group/training/support program called the Inner Circle.
It's not for everyone.
The Inner Circle is a course, a support group, a live, interactive video call, and the only way to get direct access to me—for emergencies and for clarification on tough sales issues you're having—for less than $10,000+ to help you, as a professional salesperson, sales manager, business owner, and/or entrepreneur grow.
Weekly—if not daily—you will get ideas, tactics, scripts, templates you can apply immediately to...
Make A Lot More Sales
A Heckuva Lot Faster
With A Lot Less Stress
That is how I've always done business for myself, and that is always my goal for you.
I want you to show up to the live calls, open up the app, and join the online community happy, optimistic, and eager to learn, to apply what you've learned immediately, and make back your membership fee every week, if not every day, or even multiple times per day!
But wait! There's more! (Sorry...not sorry.)
With your membership comes several quite valuable bonuses.
For starters, you get a signed physical copy of
"The Sales Whisperer® Way."
This is 254 pages of advice, insight, tips, trips, and lessons learned—most of them the hard way—on how to survive and thrive as a rebel in the world of sales, marketing, and entrepreneurship. I give exact examples and stories and behind-the-scenes strategies that I have used in my own sales career as well as the coaching many have paid me thousands of dollars to learn going back to 2006, when I started The Sales Whisperer®. My clients have included realtors, chiropractors, consultants, authors, speakers, tech firms including Dell®, photographers, laser eye surgeons, plastic surgeons, restaurants, and more. There are over 79 stories in the book, each of which is short on purpose, so you can get the information and inspiration you need and apply it quickly so you can grow your sales! Plus, it includes a detailed flow chart showing how you know you're about to make a really bad prospecting call.
I cannot promise you'll bat a thousand in your selling efforts...
But this process has helped me close at least 500 big-ticket "complex sales" ranging from a $635k training deal at Dell in 2007, a 7-figure hardware deal at Google in 2011, hundreds of SaaS sales to SMB owners since 2008, and it is totally transferrable if you are coachable and want to master the profession of sales.
Other than becoming your own executive assistant, SDR, BDR, and SME running all of YOUR Zoom meetings for you...
This Is The Easiest, Most
Cost-Effective and Proven Way
To Sell More, Faster, At Full
Price With No Stress, Gimmicks,
or Games!
But wait...no really...there's more!
When you join today, you'll also receive:
-
Direct access to me to help clarify things, to assist in emergencies—which should be few and far between, the longer you remain a member, but sh*t does happen from time to time, so I'll help but don't abuse this. I'm not your therapist, nor your proofreader, nor your new BFF...But you can email me, text me, hit me up in our group—the group is preferred—and I will help you with your situation as best I can. I don't even do this for my friends, since we all know we don't do anything with free advice, so you'll have unprecedented access to me as a member of the Inner Circle.
-
Sporadic...occasional...random referrals and regular shout-outs, if you'd like. I've been in sales since 1997. I've been in the entrepreneurial coaching space since 2006. I've spoken and sold around the world and I have clients and friends in dozens of countries. It's safe to say I know a lot of people and I have a good reputation, which not too many "goo-roos" can say. Anyway, if you need help getting in touch with someone, or you need an intro into a place, or if someone pings me asking for a referral, I'm happy to make an introduction or find someone who can. Just like the direct access mentioned above, don't join the Inner Circle thinking I'll fill your bank account with endless business leads, but I am always looking out for my Inner Circle members, so the chances are high that if you stick around for 6-12 months, your membership will probably be free just from the introductions I'll help make for you...not to mention how much better you'll become at sales...but I digress.
-
Special pricing on current and future products, programs, and events as I roll them out.
-
Mobile app with all sorts of on-demand content that is either sold separately for a grip, or not sold at all, such as behind-the-scenes interviews/consultations, scripts, insights from masterminds and communities I pay to belong to, etc. such as:
-
41 on-demand videos...70+ page workbook with scripts, goal-planning, and more...The B.E.T.R.™ Prospecting Flowchart...
-
The 8-page "Questions For Business Owners and Sales Managers"... "Prospecting The Sales Whisperer® Way"..."Handling Objections" PDF...Call Debriefing Sheet...
-
Fax Memos "done right"...The Sales Whisperer® Weekly Tracking spreadsheet...My Statement of Work template...My Professional Services Agreement template...
-
"Networking Icebreaker Questions"..."Process Before Login" worksheet...Private Facebook Group...Past recorded calls...
-
Templates, spreadsheets, boilerplate agreements, and more that you can use right away to grow your sales.
-
-
But this is not for you to add to your library of stuff you'll never read. The REAL BENEFIT of the Inner Circle is twofold:
-
As mentioned above, you get direct access to me to get you through any rough patches, emergencies, "*stinkin' thinkin'," etc.
-
And we have live group calls every week led by me, not some lackey or licensee or VA, to go even deeper into what you're struggling with so you can grow every week, if not every day.
-
*Nick Saban, the greatest coach in college football, kept two psychiatrists on staff because "talent is not talent if you can't use it...Some people can't use their talent because of how they think."
The Inner Circle will change your "stinkin' thinkin'" so you can fly as high and as fast as you've always known you could.
Cool? Cool.
And if that weren't good enough, there are no hidden upsells here.
No "ascension ladder" or "trip wires."
No gimmicks. No pressure.
Join for a week. Join for a quarter.
++Join for a year and get private monthly coaching and accountability calls with me personally.) Just join and see how I can help you grow.++
So here's the moment you've been waiting for:
The "Inner Circle" is currently $60/week, $600/quarter, or $4k for the year (the year includes scheduled private monthly consulting calls where we work on anything you'd like for up to 55 minutes.)
There are no refunds.
You may cancel at any time, for any reason, and I will not pressure, nag, or haggle you to stay.
The reality is that this type of coaching and accountability and support is not for everyone, and since most of the world falls into the "mediocre majority," most who read this are not a good fit.
I know that sounds harsh or egotistical or you think I'm doing the old "takeaway close," but the reality is I eat my own dog food.
Magnets repel as strongly as they attract, and I coach my clients how to "choose who to lose."
I am not for the professional learners...or the excuse-makers...or the incessant complainers...or the drama-kings and queens...or the Chicken Littles...or the short-cut takers...or the get-rich-quickers...or the bleeding-edge techno boys and girls.
If you fall into any of those categories, do us both a favor and skedaddle.
In this big ol' world, there is a home for you, for sure, but it...
Indubitably Is Not Here.
After running this group in various iterations since about 2010, you can ask around: I don't pressure you to stay.
All of us in the Inner Circle will continue moving and grooving, honing our skills, growing our bank accounts, reducing our stress, and having more fun with or without you. Truth be told, if you're not ready to put on your work boots, roll up your sleeves, and get to work...if you're just looking to add to your physical and digital library of crap you'll never read and crap you'll NEVER EVER implement...then joining the Inner Circle is not in your best interest.
The Inner Circle is for optimistic DOERS and GIVERS! Those who want to show up, participate, engage, learn, apply, measure, monitor, clarify, adjust, and do it again and again and again until they get it right.
Whatever "it" is for them.
Maybe it's cold calling. Maybe it's launching a podcast. Maybe it's writing a book. Maybe it's starting a business. Maybe it's growing a business. Maybe it's buying a business. Maybe it's launching an ad campaign. Maybe it's optimizing their CRMs and tech stack. Maybe it's getting into better physical, mental, emotional, and/or spiritual shape.
If you're on the fence about any of this, while my wife and kids and grandkids will gladly accept your donation, you'll probably get even more frustrated and think it's a waste of money to join...and rightly so.
Alas, it's a big world with billions of people and millions of ways to make money.
And people who know how to communicate...how to connect...how to persuade—regardless of the medium—are in control of their future, their today, and can make amends for a lot of mistakes from the past.
So, what'll it be? Are you in or are you out?
You can kick the tires on a weekly basis if you want to dip your toe into the water.
Just click the "Join" button below.
I'll sign and mail your book within 24 hours, and you'll be invited to our private group, and you'll have full access to all of the digital assets and the next Tuesday call within hours.

See ya on the inside,

Is This Coaching, Mentoring, Training, or What?
Yes.
Allow me to explain.
Mentoring tends to be reactionary, which is fine because you're coming to me with a set of issues, habits, and beliefs that must be understood by both of us so we can understand where you're coming from and plot your path forward.
Coaching tends to be proactive, i.e., we identify goals, strengths, shortcomings, areas of improvement, metrics, and deadlines.
Training is more in the weeds/tactical, i.e., scripts for dealing with prospects, customers, vendors, staff, peers, and even family and friends.
I've engaged in all of the above since the U.S. Air Force thrust me into leadership as a 19-year-old sophomore in Colorado, and I've since been retained by executives at Dell, GKIC, SEMPL, Ontraport, and Keap, just to name a few of the many organizations that have become my client.
You do not have to be a lone wolf...You can make it to your family events...

Frequently Asked & Should Ask Questions
I'm new to sales/I'm an experienced salesperson...is this for me?
The Inner Circle is meant for anyone in any sales role, be it inside or outside sales; complex sales or “simple” one-call sales; short sales cycles or long sales cycles; selling intangibles like insurance or software or if you’re selling tangible products like computers, furniture, or swimming pools.
Not only will you learn secrets that will help you unlock your true SALES POTENTIAL, but you’ll also learn how to prospect, connect, and sell in a manner that will keep you energized and enthusiastic while you do it.
It’s a program that you can actually use immediately and stick with and continue using for the rest of your sales career because you’ll be selling naturally and connecting easily with people who want and need what you have to offer.
Can't I learn this in a "boot camp" or "jump start" weekend?
The funny thing is that boot camp in the military is 6-13 weeks long.
If I could truly help you in a matter of hours, it would be so expensive as to be cost-prohibitive.
You don't hit the gym on January 1st for 12 hours, and suddenly, you're in shape for the rest of the year.
Likewise, you don't master entrepreneurship, high-ticket selling, marketing, prospecting, networking, appointment-setting, proposals, negotiation, copywriting, inbound selling, marketing automation, CRMs, and more in a "boot camp."
This isn’t a simple booklet or audio series or cheat sheet for selling. It’s an immersive multi-media guide to prospecting and selling optimally for the rest of your professional life.
Isn’t outbound prospecting dead?
Not at all.
Yes, the old school pure cold calling whereby your grandfather would literally knock on doors to sell vacuums or Fuller Brushes or encyclopedias has been dead since the internet came of age in the late ’90s.
But in business-to-business sales, the sound of the human voice is just as persuasive and effective as it has ever been, maybe more so now that there is so much noise intruding on our daily lives.
But you have to A) do it right and B) research your ideal prospects quickly so you are making an “informed cold call” or a “reasonable introduction call” that makes sense.
That will never go away...but you don't have to be the one who does it for your business forever.
What if I enroll and can’t stick with it?
This program is affordable on purpose with weekly and quarterly options.
You value what you pay for.
If you have a problem with completing things, this program is for you.
You cannot hide in this program.
I'd encourage you to commit to a year of growth and cancel any other subscriptions or emails you're receiving until you get an ROI out of this program, which shouldn't be hard considering how inexpensive it is for one year of expert sales and marketing and personal development.
If you are committed to becoming all you can be in the profession of sales, you’ll be able to stick with this course.
Will your training work in my super-special industry or niche?
Are you a human selling to humans? This course can help you.
I’ve used these approaches, scripts, closes, opens, planning tools, and documents going back to 1997 to sell everything from financial services to high net-worth clients to small business owners to Google, Sprint, Dell, and many other large companies.
I’ve sold in person in Washington, California, Texas, Nevada, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Arizona, Illinois, Ohio, Maryland, Hawaii, and a few more I’ll look up later. I’ve sold over the phone to customers around the world with software and consulting clients in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, the U.K., South Africa, Canada, Mexico, Ireland, and a few more I’ll also look up later.
My point is that I don’t have a niche. I help humans sell to humans. I’ve helped architects and chiropractors and attorneys and authors and stay-at-home moms and Fortune 50 salespeople grow their sales with the processes and techniques I’ve outlined and gone deeply into here in this course.
What if my company won’t pay for this?
Join for a week, get an idea on how to beat your toughest sales issue, and go from there.
In 2005, I pre-paid for a 12-week virtual sales training course conducted by a sales coach that came highly recommended but I had never met. The course didn’t even start for 3-4 months, but they limited the class size because it was an interactive course, and since I wanted to get better, I signed up early and paid for it on my own because my company didn’t have funds for training like that.
It was a $600 course, which in 2019 dollars would be over $800.
Then, I became his first licensee for $10,000 for a year, then $500/mo for the second year, and $1,000/mo thereafter to have access to him and his content.
In the original course, there were no
-
Private or Interactive video calls.
-
On-demand videos.
-
Audio files to download and listen to offline.
-
Private group for continued, daily, real-time support.
-
Guarantee.
It was just good training, support, and inspiration by a good guy, and I paid for it on my own.
And it changed my life.
And I owe no one and no company for it.
Success is your responsibility, right?
If I cancel, am I really not allowed to rejoin?
This is a "yes" 99.99% of the time.
I've done a lot of stuff...I've sold a lot of stuff...I've marketed a lot of stuff...I've traveled the world...I've written books...I've published podcasts...I've been on TV...I've been married since 1995...I've raised seven kids by doing all of the above...and you can get access to me damn-near 24/7 for less than $7/day.
If you don't make an extra $10,000/year because of my help I'll be SHOCKED! Hell, I'll be shocked if you don't make an extra $50,000/year or more.
But it may take six months or ten months or 18 months to find your groove, build out all of your assets, clear out your stinkin' thinkin', find your voice, streamline your processes, and automate your systems so you can grow on damn-near autopilot.
Bouncing in and out of groups, not engaging, buying stuff that's sexy and flashy and new and cool gives you a dopamine rush, but it won't help you sleep and it won't fill your bank account.
So join and stay for the longhaul.
If I'm not your cup of tea, do us both a favor and find someone who is. No hard feelings.
When the student is ready, the teacher really will appear. I hope it's me, but I'm just a tool, a stepping stone in your sales, marketing, and entrepreneurial journey, so I understand it won't be forever.
Why don't I do a trial membership like (enter some goo-roo's name) does?
You value what you pay for.
I've published over 800 podcasts, written two books, and have over 1,000 blog posts on my site, which is your free trial on steroids.
Your real growth will come when you ask your own questions about your own situation, and I answer them in such a way that makes sense for you, and when you apply that subtle shift, your growth explodes.
The weekly option is less than you probably spent on appetizers and a couple of drinks last weekend, so start weekly, then upgrade yourself to quarterly to save 23%.
Heck, the annual membership, which includes monthly private calls with me, is literally less than one month of private consulting that I charge my corporate clients, so LFG!!
All you have to lose is...fear, uncertainty, doubt.
I sell B2B/B2C/B2G...will this help me?
I've sold in all of those industries successfully, and I can help you if you're coachable.
Wanna know why? Because people are people.
Yes, there are different budgeting processes and corporate structures and politics and concerns at play in each scenario above, but at the end of the day, you're a human selling to humans.
