Calm ocean beneath a star-filled night sky

1:1 sales & career coaching

You didn't get into sales to feel like this.

Coaching for salespeople who want to hit the number without losing themselves, and for those wondering if it's time for something new.

25 years in the field. A doctorate studying salespeople's wellbeing. Coaching that combines both.

Sound familiar?

None of this means something is wrong with you.

It means you're doing a job researchers have studied for forty years. They've named what you're feeling, measured it, and found what helps. That's what we work on together.

“Every quarter resets to zero.”

The Constant Pressure of the Number

Researchers have a name for chasing a number that never stops moving: goals gone wild. It narrows your focus until the only thing you can see is the gap. That isn't a character flaw. It's what aggressive targets do to smart people. In coaching, we build process goals you actually control, so the quarter stops owning you.

“I'm at dinner but I'm still on the deal.”

Stress That Follows You Home

If you've ever sat at dinner rehearsing a deal, the research says you're not bad at switching off. Unclear expectations and conflicting demands leak into home life and wear you down. Coaching gets you the clarity at work that buys back your evenings.

“I used to love this. Now I just get through it.”

Burnout

The burnout research is blunt: it's usually a mismatch between you and the job, not a lack of grit. Workload, control, reward, fairness. One of those is probably off right now. We find which one, and fix what you can move.

“You're only as good as your last quarter.”

The Win-or-Die Culture

Early misses can teach good reps to stop trying. Researchers call it learned helplessness, and it's more common in sales than anyone admits. A bad quarter doesn't mean you're bad at this. Coaching helps you separate the deal from your identity before the story sticks.

“Another no. Maybe I'm just not good at this.”

Rejection & How You Explain It

The reps who last aren't the ones who never hear no. Decades of research show they explain the no differently: temporary, specific, fixable. That explanation is a skill, and it's one we train on purpose.

“I rehearse the call ten times and still dread it.”

Fear of the Call

Call reluctance is real, measurable, and studied. It comes from fear of being judged, and it quietly makes you play it safe with buyers. You don't need more scripts. You need a different place to put your attention, and we practice that together.

“Every manager wants something different.”

Confusion: Not Knowing What "Good" Looks Like

One of the largest studies of sales performance found that not knowing what good looks like is among the strongest drags on results. If every manager wants something different, the problem isn't your effort. Coaching gets you a clear definition of winning, in writing.

“Is this what I want to do for the next 20 years?”

Doubting Your Career

Questioning whether you want another 20 years of this is normal. Career-stage research says doubt often signals a transition, not a mistake. Coaching gives you a structured way to tell whether you need a new job, a new company, or a new path entirely.

Why this is different

The Practitioner

  • 25 years selling, 22 of them carrying a quota.
  • 16 of those 22 years finished at 100% or better.
  • Entrepreneurial experience through the founding and exit of my own technology company. Sales experience across industries.

The Researcher

  • Doctorate in business administration (DBA).
  • Research on salesperson wellbeing, motivation, and stress.
  • Reads the studies so your coaching isn't built on a LinkedIn post.

Most coaches have one. You get both.

Two doors

Most people who call me are standing in one of these two places.

You want the job to work. You just don't want it to cost you everything.

  • Hit the number without the Sunday dread.
  • Get clear on what “good” actually means in your role.
  • Rebuild the motivation that commission stopped covering.

What the research says about coaching

Fair question: does any of this work? Here is what the evidence looks like.

Coaching, across outcomes

Coaching showed significant positive effects on performance and skills, well-being, coping, work attitudes, and goal-directed self-regulation.

Coaching at work

Workplace coaching had positive effects on learning and performance outcomes.

Coaching in sales teams

In sales teams, the skill of the coaching, not just how often it happens, was linked to reps hitting their goals.

Founding client stories coming soon

The practice is new. Rather than invent quotes, this space stays empty until real clients have something real to say.

Can your company pay for this? Usually, yes.

Most companies set aside learning and development budget, and coaching for a quota-carrying rep is one of the easiest requests to approve. There's a ready-to-send email you can copy, fill in, and forward to your manager or HR.
