They loved it. They loved the energy. Bryan did a lot of really good leg work, which was a demonstration of what our sales reps realistically should be doing with their prospective clients.

I’ve spoken on the same stage as some of the best speakers in the world-Gary Vaynerchuk, Tony Robbins, Ed Mylett, Marshall Goldsmith-the list goes on. I would speak alongside Bryan Neale anywhere anytime. He is one of the most relatable inspiring people your audience will ever hear from. If you’re having a sales kick-off, national sales meeting, or any large meeting it would be a HUGE MISTAKE to NOT hire Bryan.

5 of 5

Bryan’s work with my team surpassed our expectations. Our audience truly resonated with his message—it felt like he had been part of our team for years. After working in healthcare through a global pandemic, Bryan was just what we needed to lift everyone up, restore their energy and reengage their spirit.

What’s Your Super Bowl? The Keys to Achieving a Lifelong Dream

With twists, turns and tens of thousands of miles traveled over nearly three decades working in football, Bryan learned the strategies needed to achieve at the highest level. Whether your goal is to hit a sales quota at work, spend more time with your kids or learn to fly a plane, Bryan’s principles of achievement through intentional goal setting will help you get there.

The Power of How: Why Knowing Your Why Isn’t Enough Anymore

If you’ve spent any time at a corporate retreat, in a personal development course or perusing the “recommended reading” section of business books in the last decade, you’ve probably heard a leadership guru suggest the importance of understanding your “Why.” It’s for good reason—leaders who understand why they are doing something are much more likely to be successful at inspiring the people around them.

But what if knowing your “Why” isn’t enough anymore? In an era of economic instability, shifting business landscapes and unrest around the world, it’s easy for even the best leaders to know their “Why” without committing to the “How.”

Instead, Bryan Neale will teach you a new mantra: How you do one thing is how you do everything. He will help you examine the mechanics of your life, and how those activities impact the outcomes and results you’re getting. You will leave with a new perspective on how to modify your “How” to ensure you’re focusing on your greatest opportunities for positive impact, both at work and at home.

S#*t That Works™: The Greatest SKO on Earth

If you’ve been in sales for more than a minute, you know that there’s no more pivotal moment each year than the Sales Kick Off. A successful SKO can set a team up for huge success, or it can stall momentum and create unproductive emotion for the year ahead.

As a sales leader, you’ve probably tried a bunch of approaches for past SKOs—a comedian, a professional juggler, an inspirational person who has climbed a mountain or survived a harrowing experience. Your intent is in the right place, and you know your team wants to start the year strong, but the motivational guru on the stage hasn’t gotten you the results you’re looking for.

No more, my friend, no more. In this game-changing start to your SKO, Bryan Neale will cut to the chase and teach his keys to S#*t That Works™ in today’s sales environment.

Bryan will dive deep into strategies to help your team avoid being ghosted, handle objections like a champ, expand the top of their sales funnel and increase deal velocity. He will also share what not to do and how you can encourage your team to approach their sales success like a pro.

If you’re looking for an SKO that provides usable tools to your team instead of old school tactics or motivational fluff, it’s time to talk about the S#*t that actually works!
