The Reluctant Sales Person:

NLP Persuasion Power for the Sales Shy Professional
 

The Sales BreakThrough Seminar

with Mark Shepard,
Certified NLP Trainer

How to communicate your ideas, and services more comfortably, confidently, and easily than you ever thought possible...Improve Your Sales Fast!

Case Study:
When Ed first came to me he was a sales veteran selling a product that he deeply believed in.

Unfortunately every sales call was excruciatingly painful and full of anxiety for him. He would be dripping with nervous perspiration every time did a demonstration or sales call. In a few short sessions, using my NLP Rapid Change techniques, he felt a lot more comfortable and confident. So confident in fact, that he quit his job and went into business with his brother.

Using the new tools I taught him as well as tapping into his new found confidence, he was able to attract more venture capital to his new firm than they could even use.

Can you imagine being such a powerful communicator that you can literally turn down money?

His company now has 150 accounts in 12 countries.


What could you do if you removed your blocks to success?

Now you can find out! "The Reluctant Sales Person" is a fun and engaging 3 day seminar with follow-up coaching support that will help you identify and change the unconscious beliefs that have been holding you back and keeping you from the professional success you deserve. 

It will also give you easily useable tools and techniques for motivating yourself, persuading others ethically, building trust, overcoming procrastination, eliminating fear of the phone, and other forms of sales reluctance.

You'll learn how to elicit your client's decision and buying strategies so you can save them time and frustration.  Replace the old patterns of "hoping" they'll buy, or  accepting the kinds of clients who waste your time, wear you out, and drive you crazy. Can you  imagine your perfect clients finding you and "selling" you on working with them?

Are you really good at your chosen profession but you can’t seem to find enough clients or the right clients who value your services and are willing and able to pay for them?

  • Are you uncomfortable "selling?"

  • Does “Honking your own horn” feel wrong?

  • Does asking for referrals seem "pushy?"

  • Does Cold calling or even just picking up the phone to “follow-up” fill you with dread and reluctance?

  • Is procrastination sabotaging your success?

  • Do you find yourself upset and frustrated with your lack of skills in dealing with "impossible people?"

  • Are you a peak performer who is always looking for a new edge?

Get out of your own way so that the people who need your help can actually get it from YOU!

Your "Sales Reluctance" not only hurts you, it hurts your clients.  They need your help and because you are holding yourself back, they are suffering from having to work with other, less qualified professionals…or worse - they are just suffering.

You’ve paid thousands of dollars to get your credentials, learn your trade, get your certification and degrees.  You’ve spent thousands of dollars on office equipment, business attire, advertising and other tools of your trade.  You are committed to giving your clients the absolute best service you can possibly give.  And all that would be fine if you had…clients.

But either you don’t have any clients or you don’t have enough of them or if you do have enough they are not the kind of clients you really were thinking about when you got into this whole thing in the first place! Are the clients you do have driving you crazy?

Do you just give up or resign yourself to failure?  Do you keep doing what you’ve been doing and hope that someday some how enough people will hear about you and find you?

Is your story like my story?
All my life I have suffered from sales anxiety or sales reluctance.  I literally had a sales phobia!  Too worried about what others thought, too fragile to risk rejection or criticism, my talents and gifts were under-utilized.

I tried everything: MLM, Real Estate, selling Hondas (a car that sells itself) I was a dismal failure. I knew my stuff, I loved my product or service but I just couldn't seem to get out of my own way. At one point, I had my own business as a title insurance agent. We just barely scraped by. Why? Not enough clients.

Eventually I lost everything and ended up playing kids music and telling stories for nursery schools then elementary schools... I was somewhat successful there because I didn't have the same emotional baggage or fear of rejection with kids. But even here, my lack of confidence and "selling" skills held me back. I could have been far more successful if I'd had these tools then.

I knew I had to change. I began to research NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming).  In the process I discovered a multitude of rapid change techniques that got me results fast. 

By fast, I mean in minutes and hours instead of weeks and years.

I read every book in print on  the subject. I studied personally with one of the all time NLP masters. Dr. Tad James. After an intensive training program I became a certified master practitioner and trainer of NLP ( Neuro Linguistic Programming ), and several other leading edge rapid change techniques.  I am now working on my doctorate in this area.

As "The Courage Coach," I now work with people from all across the country clearing severe Phobias and Anxiety. I've just finished my groundbreaking "Clear The Fear Fast" Workbook and CD program. www.clearfear.com

Just getting a phobia client into the office for a free consult often takes significant "sales" skills and "persuasion power" because they are so fearful. Building unconscious trust and eliciting their decision making strategies are just the tip of the ice berg. You see, I can't help them unless I can get them to make a decision. I'm sure you have a similar situation in your own profession.

Anxious, frustrated sales people and  professionals who didn't think of themselves as "sales people" started coming in for 1:1 coaching and showing up in my Clear the Fear Fast workshops. As a result, they started earning more and living happier lives with lower stress and better relationships. That felt great for me! One of my highest values is to make a positive difference in the lives of others while doing what I love.

Isn't that what you want too - to make a positive difference in the lives of your clients and colleagues doing something you love and feeling great at the same time?

I want to help you.  I can help you clear the fear of selling, cold calling, getting appointments, closing the sale or even just of introducing yourself at a networking meeting. And by the way, for you shy guys and gals out there, asking somebody out on a date is certainly a "sales" proposition.

Until now you would need to come in and work with me one on one. It's very effective but because of the demand, I've had to raise my prices. This workshop will enable you to get the same benefits at a much lower cost.

Just a few of the things you will learn:

In addition you will master your own unconscious mind to

  • Take control of your internal states
  • Motivate yourself
  • Blast through procrastination and fear
  • Eliminate rejection
  • Install a deep and abiding confidence in yourself that literally radiates outward and compels prospects to buy from you.

Shouldn’t you learn these skills before your competitors do?


We find out what's stopping you internally and we change it...Fast!

What is it that is causing you to stop yourself from doing whatever it takes to get more clients and to deepen and strengthen the relationships with the clients you already have?

  • We use advanced Rapid Change Techniques from NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) to clear the internal blocks (the "stoppers) and change the limiting beliefs and behaviors.
     

  • You'll also learn how to install resource anchors and change your "knee-jerk" reactions so that the old triggers, automatically re-route you into your power and your resourceful states.
     

  • We'll teach you how to develop rapid rapport and a deep connection so that you and your prospect feel comfortable and at ease.
     

  • Anxiety "fear of the  phone" will be a distant memory.
     

  • You'll learn how to set goals and "turbo boost" them so that they become practically inevitable.
     

You "re-program" how you interact externally so your new beliefs and behaviors become automatic.

  • Rapid Rapport, in person or over the phone. This technique alone rocketed a commodities brokerage firm from last place out of 15 offices to first place within 3 weeks.

  • Deepening mutual trust and co-operation with clients and team members.

  • Communicate directly to your client’s deepest and most significant preferences and desires.

  • Speaking the customer’s language on 3 crucial subconscious levels.

  • Elicit a prospect’s unconscious decision making and convincer strategies so that you are selling products and services to them the way they want to buy.

  • Subtle negotiation skills that get agreement even in an environment of hostility and mistrust.

  • Working within the client’s perceptions and model of the world for maximum mutual benefit

  • After the workshop there is a 3 session telephone coaching call to support you and keep you on track.

Why this training program is different from other sales trainings:

  1. We start with the beliefs and behaviors that are stopping you from succeeding. Then we change them. Most other sales trainers tell you what you "should" believe and what you "should" be doing but they do nothing to enable you to actually make those changes. As an NLP master practitioner, that's what I do. It works so well as to often feel magical.
     

  2. You will learn how to communicate with your client's unconscious mind to build trust and deep rapport. Rapidly.
     

  3. You will eradicate any anxiety you may have about making phone calls (cold or warm), upcoming meetings or sales presentations.
     

  4. We will use the tools of NLP to literally lock in powerful, attractive states that you can trigger at will. You will have new unconscious behaviors that you won't have to "think" about and remember. They will just be there when you need them.
     

  5. You will learn the secrets of setting goals in such as way as to make your desired outcomes almost inevitable. Most other sales trainers urge you to write your goals down and keep track of your successes. That's great and it works. We take it far deeper.
     

  6. You will learn how to read your clients and prospects like a book. You will understand how they think and process information. As a result you will be able to communicate more positively than you can even imagine.
     

  7. Whether you need to "sell" a prospect on becoming your client or your kids on staying sober and off drugs, or "sell" your boss on a new idea (or on giving you a raise!) or "sell" a committee on funding your scientific research project, or "sell" that attractive person on going out with you,  you will learn 5 easy to remember steps to "closing" them and getting to "yes."
     

  8. You are taught by someone who had the same struggles you've had. Most other sales trainings are taught by people who were formerly top sales people. They don't understand what it's like to be frozen with fear when faced with the phone or shyness, or old family rules that say "selling is bad" or sales people are pushy and manipulative. And even if they did, they aren't qualified to help you change that.
     

Your investment:
This workshop is worth at least whatever your average commission is, or whatever one new client is worth, right? What would it be worth to "sell" your kids on staying away from drugs? That's worth any price right?

My private clients have taken small pieces of this information  and increased their incomes dramatically. It is not unusual for people using these skills to double their incomes. None of them received the full package that you will. For the first time, I'm offering ALL of the skills in one easy to learn and use program.

  • One of my clients, a Real Estate broker, increased his income  from $20,000 to $190,000!!! 
     
  • Jeff Tottinham doubled his previous month's income 30 days after working with me!
     
  • As a new manager, Greg used this information to defeat his anxiety and fear of failure to turn around a lagging branch office of a national tree surgeon company. When he first worked with me, his branch office was $12,000 in the red. One year later it was $132,000 in the black. Greg went on to fulfill his life long dream of hiking the Appalachian Trail.
     

  • John was a Ferrari salesman whose increasing shyness was hurting his ability to sell something that usually sells itself. Within a short time he was schmoozing with the heavy hitters at the Pebble Beach auto show.
     

  • Jane was an insurance sales person who was afraid of the phone. She kept busy doing all the things except the most important ones. She learned how to change her internal representations of her prospects and anchor positive emotions to the phone. She created a whole different experience the very next day and started selling again.
     

  • As mentioned at the beginning, Ed  now sells his products in 12 countries.

Testimonials:

"The work I did with Mark Shepard taught me how to deal with my fears and internal resistance. It put me in the driver's seat and helped me stop old patterns. Encouraged by the work we did together, I left my old sales job and joined my brother in starting up a new company. We now have 150 accounts in 12 countries."

- Ed Riccio,  www.sedgwickandcedar.com

"I was reluctant to "take the plunge", but finally made an investment
in myself, and my business. Since working one on one with Mark I've been able to make more calls, follow up better with potential clients, and close more business than previously.

Just yesterday I closed a deal after a "tough" meeting that previously
would have made me uncomfortable.  That deal alone covers the cost of
my working with Mark.  Truly money well spent, and a value received that
goes way beyond dollar amounts."

More Testimonials 

 

Obviously, I can't promise you that you will double your income.

 I don't have control over what you do (or don't do) with this powerful information. However, it is not unusual. Personally I spent $25,000 to get this information and the certifications to teach it.  I turned that investment into $57,391.00 of additional part-time income the very first year I put it into practice. I make more now per month than I once made per year.

I've now set my sights on making more per week than I used to make per year! The new skills you will learn in this seminar can make that possible for you too. I understand now that the investment I've made in acquiring this information and making these changes is worth thousands of times more than I ever thought it was worth.

This high level seminar should be priced at $3,000 or more. The tools and techniques you receive alone are worth that because you can put what you learn into practice and easily generate that much in new business immediately.

Please Note: current registration for this training is closed. At this time it is only available for groups of 10 or more by special arrangement.
