Teams I've trained
Who's teaching
I was the first sales hire at Jellyvision. These days I help teams start conversations without pitching.
The workshop
Your buyers already have a way of getting the job done. When they feel pushed, they dig in.
So what gets them to consider something different? A question that helps them see something they hadn’t considered. Then they decide for themselves.
In this workshop, your team learns how to poke the bear: how to start conversations that spark curiosity instead of resistance.

“If you run events for sales people, do yourself a favor and hire Josh to run a workshop for your audience.”

An open letter
What if you stopped trying to change my mind?
What if you had zero expectations when you reached out to me?
Whenever I feel the push, I pull away. So do you. So does everyone.
Ask me a question that shines a light on a problem I'm not aware of. Then let me come to my own conclusion.
Sort me, don't sell me.
Sincerely, A Prospect
