“I highly recommend John for any SaaS team that wants to move away from feature/function conversations to more strategic, value conversations. After John's training, we truly evolved into a better team by allowing ourselves to feel uncomfortable asking "The 5 Questions" over and over until it BECAME comfortable. When we started focusing less on immediate problem solving, and more on full understanding of the customer, we started to have more value-driven, meaningful conversations that ACTUALLY solved their problems.”

“6 months after John’s training, our sales cycles went from six months to just over three. John has an incredible knack for making complex things sound simple and did a phenomenal job of teaching our sales team how to do it. I’d highly recommend John's demo training.”

“Thank-you very much John! You are a great trainer and very knowledgeable about Pre-Sales. I needed work on trying to get myself out of ‘verbose’ talking and showing too much product. I have been doing Pre-Sales now for 18 years now and it’s always good to get good refreshers on items and have an independent observer give us new tips. 10 months later I’m still using your techniques today and they are leading to great success.”

Your Instructor

My top priority is that you understand how to apply product demo best practices to your products and your target markets so that you win more with fewer demos. That's why we do it together in the classroom and certify your skills right there. That way you won't have to figure it out on your own after the training.

One Framework

That's the whole point of our Customer Outcome Framework. To keep all customer-facing disciplines aligned to the goals and priorities of your customers so that everyone can do their part to eliminate the obstacles. For sales engineers, that means you're demonstrating outcomes, obstacles and solutions instead of problems, features and benefits. You are the differentiation!
