Without credibility,
every sales process fails.

Unlike most sales consultants, we don't teach sales methodology.

Instead, we show you how to build credibility and trustworthiness, which is essential for any sales process to be successful.

SalesCred® facilitates live, immersive and inclusive master classes that are customized to your unique personalities and objectives.

Improve how buyers see you with SalesCred master classes.

We identify sales credibility gaps for the company and each salesperson and what's causing them. Then we use our expertise, and crowdsource the wisdom in the room, to develop strategies for improving these perceptions.

SalesCred master classes are delivered by Zoom or in person. Best for teams of 10–50 people. We provide world-​class facilitation with three different topics, critical for building your credibility with prospects.
