Sam Richter            

World's Leading Online Intelligence Expert; Author of "Take the Cold Out of Cold Calling"; 2020 Inductee to the Speaker Hall of Fame

The Internet has RADICALLY CHANGED the way that people buy and sell. Buyers have more information than ever, and they don't have time to waste in data gathering meetings. Yet while buying behavior has changed, people still sell pretty much the same way they have for the past 50 years. THAT'S CRAZY!!!

If your sales and marketing teams aren't taking advantage of social networks like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and others as intelligence gathering tools; if you're not using the secret search tricks that Google and other websites provide to learn more about prospects, clients, and competitors -- THEN YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON BIG TIME BUSINESS.

Considered one of THE world's foremost Sales Intelligence thought leaders, Sam Richter takes something everyone intuitively knows -- Knowledge Is Power! -- and turns it into reality. Every sales training program and book teaches the value of knowing what's important to the other person and connecting on a personal level. But no one tells you HOW to do it. Until now!

Through real-world examples, humor, success stories (and some failures), and via his unique interactive and fast-paced manner, Sam will guide you through the world of online information, how to find it and how to apply it to build meaningful prospect and client relationships. His programs will WOW! you and your attendees, and he's guaranteed to be one of the most high-content, take-home-value presenters your organization has ever had.

What Sam teaches is RELEVANCE ACCELERATION -- how to tell your company's story in a manner that your buyer cares about and wants to hear. Sam's completely customized programs will shock you, sometimes scare you, and always provide you new and innovative ways to find new prospects, connect with people, and build powerful and meaningful business relationships.
