If you’re interested in selling cybersecurity easily and profitably, I can help. I’ve been trained by industry giants like TruMethods and CharTec, and I’ve studied under mainstream sales leaders like Sandler Sales and Keenan (the author of “Gap Selling”).
You’ve never seen anyone do what I do.
I take sales fundamentals and apply them to the IT industry – and specifically to selling cybersecurity.
What’s better: I help smart, tech-oriented NON salespeople learn to close sales – even if you’re selling to SMBs who have zero budget (or who have their ostrich head buried in the sand, oblivious to today’s cyber threats.)
Sound too good to be true? Keep reading…
If you’re a legit provider, you’ve finally built a security solution. You were THRILLED to finally accomplish that quarterly rock, and you’re proud of what you’ve built.
There’s just one problem: now you need to sell it.
Yesterday that was a massive problem. But today? You’re golden.
Why?
Because you’re about to discover some of my BEST intellectual property, designed to help you sell your security stack to clients and prospects.
During my first 3 years in business. I did this live. Every industry podcast. Dozens (hundreds?) of webinars or private training events. I did ANYTHING I could do to get this information into the hands of as many MSPs as possible.
But you need more than I can fit into a 30-minute podcast interview.
And you need this information NOW.
(Oh, and don’t stress – this isn’t some silly funnel offering you a “free” book but then charging you a bajillion dollars for shipping.)
I don’t roll that way. I literally want to serve the industry that I love – in the best way I know how.
And I’ve used my exceptional sales skills to convince the Amazon robots to get this book into your hands ASAP.
Why Would I Share These Sales Strategies With You?
There Are Three Reasons…
1
First, you deserve to close more sales.
I have personally felt the pain of NOT closing a deal that should have closed. And while I can’t transport you back in time to close that deal, I can download everything from my brain into your brain to keep that frustration from happening again.
Second, you have a duty to protect your clients and community.
YOU are the backbone of the global economy, the unsung hero in the digital landscape. This puts you in a unique and powerful position to convince your clients and prospects to buy from you. But it’s not enough to have them buy managed services. You must convince them to pay for security…even if they’ve never paid for it before.
Third, I have a duty to share my knowledge with you.
I’ve been given a unique gift that allows me to consume content and then create frameworks and curricula around that content. In this case, we’re talking about sales. From the decades of reading (and applying) sales books and taking hours of training, I’ve distilled sales fundamentals into simple, actionable, and reproducible sales frameworks that teach you to close cybersecurity sales – even if you aren’t a natural born salesperson.

In 2019, I Grew a Cybersecurity Startup from “Baby Business” to “Acquisition” in Less than 2 Years.
My job? Selling MDR services to IT Pros.
It was a glorious time. The perfect storm.
✔ Ransomware was fresh and terrifying
✔ Anti-virus was outgunned, powerless against that threat
✔ We had THE only way to mitigate ransomware
We grew fast – really, really fast.
Until we discovered a MASSIVE problem:
Only 9% of our MSP clients had deployed our solution to any clients!
This meant that most clients were paying us around $200 in MRR.
Two. Hundred. Dollars.
Not a typo.
The stuff nightmares are made of.
Since I was the senior sales leader, this became MY problem to solve.
How did I help MSPs learn to sell cybersecurity?
✔ I dismantled sales books and pulled them back together into fresh, industry-specific training material that non-salespeople could use.
✔ I conducted surveys, analyses, and assessments to uncover MSP’s biggest sales challenges – and then wrote training to address every one.
✔ I did webinars, coaching, events. You name it. I did it.
Bottom line: it moved the needle. In a HUGE way.
My sales process. My objection handling frameworks.
Created so that busy MSPs didn’t have to figure everything out from scratch themselves.
And I’ve bundled all of that (and more) into this book.
Sales Process: Blueprint
You need a process for everything, including sales. I’ve anticipated every stall, objection, and mistake – and engineered this sales blueprint to mitigate and tapdance around all of them.
You’ll learn a ton of great strategies inside my book. This note taking template will:

✔ Reinforce good habits while driving conversations forward.

You’ll walk out with a concrete plan to increase lead flow, convert more cybersecurity opportunities, or move deals through your pipeline faster.
