Biography

Jeffrey Gitomer is a creative, edgy writer and speaker with world-renowned expertise in sales, customer loyalty, and personal development. His presentations, seminars and keynote addresses are funny, insightful, and in your face. Real world. Off the wall. On the money. Gitomer gives audiences information that they can take out in the street one minute after the seminar is over and turn it into money. He’s an experienced and expert salesman.

Speaking and training coast-to-coast more than 150 times a year, Gitomer provides answers, informs, challenges and entertains sales forces and customer service departments for companies like Sprint, Sony, Northwestern Mutual Life, Inc. Magazine, XEROX, Time Warner Cable, Deloitte & Touche, Federal Express, and Milliken.

Gitomer’s seminars and workshops focus on self-evaluation in each area of training. The attendee learns to change listening and learning habits from the traditional “I know that” to the 21st century strategy, “How good am I at that?” Each participant walks away with new understanding and an individualized game plan for action (and success).

Jeffrey Gitomer is the author of New York Times Best Seller The Sales Bible and Customer Satisfaction is Worthless – Customer Loyalty is Priceless. Gitomer’s latest book, The Patterson Principles of Selling was released in the spring of 2004 and is already a #1 Best Seller on Amazon.com. The Little Red Book of Selling was released in fall of 2004. Jeffrey’s books have sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide.

His syndicated column Sales Moves appears in more than 95 business newspapers, and is read by more than 4 million people every week.

Jeffrey is the host of Selling Power Live audio magazine, distributed to over 10,000 subscribers worldwide.

His three WOW websites get as many as 5,000 hits a day from readers and seminar attendees. His state of the art web-presence and e-commerce ability has set the standard among peers, and has won huge praise and acceptance from customers.

He created the world’s first customized sales assessment. Renamed a “successment”, this amazing sales tool will not only judge your selling skill level in twelve critical areas of sales knowledge, it will give you a diagnostic report that includes 50 mini sales lessons as it rates your sales abilities, and explains your customized opportunities for sales knowledge growth. Aptly named KnowSuccess — the company’s mission is: You can’t know success until you know yourself.

In 1997, Jeffrey was awarded the designation Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) by the National Speakers Association. The CSP award has been given less than 500 times in the past 25 years.
