HOW TO CRUSH THE TOP LINE WITH UNPRECEDENTED DECISION-MAKING PROWESS
 
This 45 – 60 minute customized keynote is perfect for:

Sales teams across all industries
Sales manager meetings (including sales kickoff events)
 
Successful sales professionals, and their managers, are never satisfied. Yesterday’s major achievements are today’s performance standards, and surpassing quota is the expectation, not the exception. As old methods become commoditized and ineffective, new creative sales techniques are needed more than ever.

Drawing inspiration from his knock-down-drag-out fight with cancer, nationwide bestselling author and multiple Diamond Club award winning sales professional, Michael Veltri has created a new and powerful model of decision-making success that leads to unprecedented sales results.

You’ll learn:

  • 5 simple and effective decision-making tools to boost sales;
  • What’s truly behind objections — and how to conquer them;
