I help organizations create modern learning strategies for their people, partners, and customers | AE @ Docebo | 🎙Host of Stories of Selling Human

Sometimes in your life it feels like you lose everything.  

Like the year I was laid off.  Interviews pushed from COVID 19,  But then the real bomb hit,

My Dad got diagnosed Leukemia.

Just 5 months later, unfortunately my Dad passed away.  Despite losing so much, I'll never lose what my Dad taught me about life.  Things like selflessness, a relentless work ethic, and a thirst for knowledge.

His best lesson was how to create genuine connections with everyone in your life.  I've taken that approach to sales my whole life.  I’m still the 8 yr old kid who loved meeting people so much that he went door to door selling Ham and Cheese out of a catalog.

I got genuine connections out of it and the Sony Boombox I won wasn’t half bad either!

Highlights from 15 years in professional sales:

🔥 I launched a new team where I successfully recruited financial producers for a firm owned by Fran Tarkenton, Hall of Fame QB.

🔥I was named the top sales rep in an office of over 50 media sales people.  Judged not just by sales attainment but also by activity.

🔥At Monster, I sold the biggest partnership contract in the history of our team. $300k ARR, 3 year deal. 

What am I most proud of professionally?

A 15 minute meeting.  I drove 3 hours to Chicago to meet a client I’ve never met in person.  For 15 mins to say hi and drive back.  It wasn’t to close a deal.  It was just a Tuesday. 

Those “Just Tuesday” moments are why I love this gig.

I’ve had success in my career because I genuinely seek to understand people. 

An understanding strategy IS my sales strategy.

My relentlessness isn’t driven by my product or a sales number. I'm motivated by digging deeper to discover the “un-discovered” problem.   Sales is something that happens for and with your buyer not to them.  You're a guide on a discovery together with the intention to help and add value.  ALWAYS.

The best feeling in sales isn’t ringing a bell, (even though that’s always fun). 

The real joy is in being told three simple words.

“I trust you.” 

That’s what really lights me up and what I'm going for.

Finally, my approach in sales is guided by attuning yourself to what someone’s entire world is like, actively listening without any agenda, being genuine, and putting them first.

I call these things, “Selling Human”.  I practice it daily.  I think we can all do it.

I choose to study it.

Sales has become obnoxiously boring, creativity has been lost, people have become less important than the products we push, and sellers live out the definition of insanity on a daily basis…

That’s why we need a Rebellion 🔥

To understand the movement of The Sales Rebellion, first you need to understand why I started it and the community it has evolved in to.

It all starts with my Dad, a sales pro for over 38 years. 

His legacy is one of integrity, perseverance, and service to others is unmatched by most people who have enjoyed working in our great profession.

In a nutshell: I spent my life in the shadow of one of the greatest men to ever walk this earth and his ability to sell also fueled his success in LIFE.

What it has to do with me?

I realized my initial calling in the technology world (selling copiers, managed IT and software) through his business and also just how much fun I could have being in a sales role.

You might have heard rumors of me... back when they called me, The Copier Warrior.

From 2007 until 2017 I worked for the same company - my Father's firm was acquired in 2012 and I stuck around until 2017, at which point I moved on from the company I had represented for my entire career in sales. 

I made this decision after my Dad’s passing (see my shared articles for the 'saddest story I have ever told' if you want to know more).

I stayed in the copier industry for 2 more years before launching my Rebellion.

Yes, that's right in 2019, The Sales Rebellion was born.

My conquest of changing the game has expanded beyond my role as an individual contributor and a VP of sales in the technology space. 

Now I am teaching the masses how to be more creative, build a lasting legacy, be a servant leader and achieve more in their sales career.

No longer will the mediocre rule throughout our profession. 

A Rebellion is rising up.

What's a Sales Rebellion?

The belief in Radically Educating your prospects through unique and creative experiences.

A belief in Responses, good or bad, but never indifferent.

A belief that your Territory is your Community. 

A belief your Pipeline is Alive.

A belief that people are more than just a signature for your deal.

A belief in fellowship over negotiations.

No matter your title... Salesperson, SDR, BDR, Account Executive, Inside Sales, Outside Sales, VP of Sales, Sales Manager, Senior Solutions Growth Architect Specialist 😂🤷🏻‍♂️ - this Rebellion was built for you.

Dale Dupree

Is anyone actually real on LinkedIn anymore? All I see are ChatGPT comments, AI generated posts, boosting with PODs, and 19 year old kids telling us they’re experts at revenue generation… Just comment “VIP” and I’ll send you the playbook!

It seems like we’ve overstated this platform

With people who just want to get rich

The “easy way”

Hack an algorithm, fake it til you make it, game the system, prey on people…

I don’t know.

Maybe I’m nuts.

But it seems like we are heading to a majority status when it comes to these folks and this platform.

I’m not going anywhere.

But I’m worried that it’s going to drive others away and all that’s going to be left here will be coaches selling each other AI courses.

So while actual humans are still reading this…

Please don’t forget that if you party with the “cool kids” and do what everyone else is doing

You’re going to be long gone in 6 months.

There is nothing sustainable about what I’ve mentioned above.

There is only sustainability with the level in which we personally care and show up daily.

Be a Rebel.

Stay the course.

And don’t get lost in the noise.

PS - if you want to immerse yourself into the Rebel Way, our community, learning and tangible experiences we mail to you door…
