Most sales courses, training, and workshops focus on "selling" when in fact, you need to know your
customer's buying process. That's what you'll learn in this class.
By identifying the components of the buying and selling process,
you can increase your conversion rates and accelerate your time-to-sale.
Enterprise sales (i.e. business-to-business), purchasing decisions can
take 3, 6, or 12 months (or more!) with many decision-makers,
influencers, and individual buyers involved.
We use the
Sales Model Canvas as your framework to
achieve these objectives. The Sales Model Canvas is a simple process to
follow starting from the first conversation with your prospective
customer all the way through the sales and buying process, and to
successful implementation your solution with your new client.
The course includes case studies from various industries and solutions, including:
- Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Data-as-a-Service (DaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (Paas)
- University & college educational products and sales
- Government and Request-for-Proposal (RFP) sales situations
- Clean Tech & Renewable Energy
- Services-based companies, including consulting and web development services.

Workshop Testimonials
"I attended a live workshop for this course. I have this stuff on my
desk. It's our sales compass - where are we on each deal? Are we on
track? Where are we going?"
- Arthur Bart-Williams, Founder, Canogle, Speaker & Mentor at the Lean Startup Conference
"Very practical Quickstart for a non-salesperson to do lead discovery
and conversion. I’d previously read Solution Selling to overcome a
feeling that I’m an engineer not a salesperson, but found the book too
theoretical to help. This workshop was a hit-the-ground-running
introduction where I left feeling that I can do sales. Highly recommend
it."
- Riaz Rizvi, Principal at Kickstart Platforms
"Scott was instrumental in developing our enterprise sales process by
teaching us how to navigate through target prospects and developing
sales experiments to optimize our process."
- Patrick White, CEO at Synata, Best New Enterprise Product at LAUNCH 2013
Book Reviews for "Startup Selling" and "52 Sales Questions Answered" (by the course author)
"I found this book useful as we all sell something to someone no matter
what our job is. The customer could be your manager or co-workers, and
you might be selling your new idea rather than a product. No matter what
you sell, you bound to pick up useful ideas in this book."
- Ali Julia,
Amazon #1 Reviewer, Review of "Startup Selling"
"There is a wealth of information here - the book makes the reader feel
like being in attendance at one of his seminars. Sambucci is bright,
witty, focused, and right there on the front lines of success. Just buy
into it."
- Grady Harp,
Amazon Top 50 Reviewer, Review of "52 Sales Questions Answered"
"If you are an entrepreneur who wants to get up to speed quickly on
selling to business, in particular selling software, the book belongs on
your short list of must reads."
- Sean Murphy,
Founder SKMurphy, Review of "Startup Selling"
