We will perform an in-depth overall business goals analysis to produce a detailed strategy with an action plan to achieve them.
CURRENT SALES SYSTEM ANALYSIS
Knowing that sales is the lifeblood that determines the success of all business organizations, we will take an in depth look at your current sales system from start to finish so that we can identify what is working well, areas for potential improvement and completely new strategies that can be incorporated to take your sales to a level that meets and eventually exceeds your current goals..
SALES APPROACH DEVELOPMENT
This is a robust service aimed at developing your overall approach to sales from marketing strategies that generate viable leads, to first client contact and understanding their needs, to developing your sales messaging, to closing the deal naturally and easily without any uncomfortable sales techniques, to establishing a long term mutually beneficial relationship that will produce additional leads for years to come. We can also do a deep dive into systems used to track and report your sales that are critical to being able to manage a complex sales process.
SALES TRAINING PROGRAM
This is a comprehensive approach that includes all of my sales development services and packages the results together in a customized training program that can be as simple as a one day video event or as complex as a six month long program that includes recurring in person on site training needed for a complex long term sales process with a variety of tools needed throughout the entire sales cycle and beyond.
SALES TEAM DEVELOPMENT
A harmonious and self supportive sales team will not only maximize sales production it will also set the tone for your entire image as an organization and the overall feeling your clients will have throughout their experience with your company. Depending on where you are at with your team, we can start from the very beginning by defining your ideal representative and the hiring strategy to ensure you are able to attract and retain top talent or we can perform an assessment of your current team to produce an in-depth approach to creating a client-centric sales team focused on collaboration, support and a level of efficiency that promotes a strong work life balance.
MINDFULNESS & MEDITATION GUIDANCE
There are now countless companies that offer meditation programs because of the innumerable benefits their employees receive which in turn increases productivity and profitability for the company. That being said, mindfulness and meditation practices are at the heart of my entire offering. The ability to deeply listen to and connect with one's clients is the most important ability that can be developed when it comes to successful consultative selling, while at the same time, bringing a sense of self-realization and actualization that will be beneficial for all of one's life. We can customize an integrative approach that will work best for you and your company's situation.

Combining Three Decades of Sales and Management Experience with Zen Practices
​I’ve been involved with sales, sales management and project management across several industries for just under 30 years now. I’ve worked with leading edge technology companies including Hewlett-Packard, Dell, BOXX Technologies and several smaller startups. Additionally, I spent quite a bit of time in the commercial and high end residential real estate industries, as well as, the residential and commercial solar industries.
I have also been fortunate enough to have spent the last 25 years studying and practicing the Way of Zen with some of the most respected living Zen and Suizen Masters from around the world.
The combination of broad business experience and Zen practices over the last three decades has created a unique perspective which has allowed me to develop a truly effective and fulfilling approach to sales and sales management. It comes from a place of service through in-depth client connection and understanding with an emphasis on utmost professionalism and industry expertise.
