MEET YOUR NEW SALES MENTOR

I BELIEVE THAT SALES SHOULD BE FUN,
ETHICAL AND PROFITABLE

Before starting my own business, I spent a decade in sales working for 3 Fortune 500’s (yep! nearly 25,000 sales conversations and 2,100 sales presentations!), I found myself looking for a way to impact 1,000s of businesses.

I went on to open and run a Toastmasters Club that helped high-achieving professionals master their messaging to easily gain new clients.

I said goodbye to the stability of the 9-5 to jump feet first into the wild ride of entrepreneurship.

Now as a business owner and the creator of the Sales Success Lounge™ and Startup Sales Leadership Academy™, I have taught 1,000+ of online brands and startups to create and sell premium products by mastering sales skills and then building sales teams from the ground up.

My signature FREEDOM Framework™ helps coaches, consultants, speakers, agencies, and professional service providers create, implement and scale a stress-free rinse-and-repeat sales system while freeing up more and more time to do the things they love.

Working with me means falling in love with selling, enjoying visibility, and building a raving fan-client culture in your business.

I can’t wait to meet you!

WHAT THEY SAY:

"Working with Michelle has transformed
