Sales is like a box of chocolates. Wrong! We should know exactly what we are getting. Together we will make sure that you know where your Sales are coming from in the remainder of this fiscal year.

Hi...I am Denise Murtha Bachmann and I am passionate about humanizing sales.  I killed it in tech sales and I help others do the same.  What differentiates me from all the other sales coaches here on LinkedIn?  With over 30 years of experience and the latter half in AI/ML, I know how to leverage new technologies for efficiency gains and then pivot to cultivate the human experience that buyers of today demand.

Closing over $75M in revenue in the last 14 years and making club 85% of the eligible years, working with companies such as AT&T, USAA, BCBS and so many more, I have navigated and managed some complex sales cycles.  Clients closed with me not just solely on my ability to build relationships, but also because established credibility with them.  I learned the products that I was selling and the business problems we were helping to solve so much so that I didn't need a software engineer for those 1st and 2nd level conversations.  This allowed for us to have the discussions that most buyers do not like to have with sales.

Knowing the solutions and the business problems is what fostered my passion and enthusiasm for AI.  The challenge that most companies face today is that they want and attempt to adopt new technologies, injecting them into the sales process but they don't know how to adapt their sales teams.  

Adapting to AI, many sales organizations....
*Have their sales teams just allow the solutions to run without teaching them how or when to insert the human connection, or
*Have their sales teams do the same work effort that the technology is focused on expecting double the results.

Buyers of today demand an experience.  By the time they come to you, as the seller, they have already done their homework and downselected you as one of their top 3-5 choices.  Yes you must confirm what they know about you, the company and product thus far, but then they want to know what partnering with you will be like.  They are looking for the experience.

Sales cannot give them an experience if they are focused more on the technology or on the activities that are of less value.  When you focus on the higher value activities, sales can cultivate and elevate the Human Connection within the sales process and revenue will SKYROCKET!!

Working with me and my Sellovatorz program, sales will learn how to accelerate exceptional sales results through...
*Group and Invidivual Coaching
*Masterminds and 
*Masterclasses.

DM me or visit my website to schedule time with me.
Let's kill sales together!!!

This space… "YOUR HEADLINE" is the place to attract Recruiters/Hiring Managers | 500+ LinkedIn Client Recommendations | 👉 Jobseekers get better jobs quicker by working with me | Macro Influencer | Outplacement Services

I have helped 278 middle management & C-suite professionals land new careers over the past 8 months. 

Removing the frustration that jobseekers have while applying for job after job, and only getting those darn rejection emails, is what makes setting that alarm for 5am (or sometimes 4am) all worth it.  

I have also been there and done that over and over...

-	I've been that frustrated jobseeker 
-	doing all the wrong things
-	applying for hundreds and hundreds of jobs 
-	getting Ghosted for months and months 


Until I learned… 

-	what to do... but more importantly what not to do
-	how to properly network on LinkedIn 
-	it’s all about applying for targeted jobs 
-      you must have a resume that gets past the ATS 
-	how to get noticed and land that new career 

My previous experience as a Hiring Manager - Grass Roots Recruiter – and Decades of Interviewing have allowed me to craft resumes that tell “your story”.

Let’s face it… searching for a new career should not be stressful but it can and will be without the right tools. And those tools better be sharp…

So, what are those tools???

1)	Resume 
2)	LinkedIn 
3)	Networking 

I will provide you those tools and teach you how to keep them sharp for your entire working career. 

Allowing you to go from rejected to recruited.

Identifying what my clients' strengths are while probing my clients for what they really enjoy doing allows me to craft “their story” and I know how-to best position jobseekers by leveraging LinkedIn and getting you noticed by recruiters. 

And jobseekers get better jobs quicker... by working with me.

Two dogs. One ball. A pool of water… and a full strategy session 😂

Watching this made me laugh—but it also hit a little close to home.

How often do we approach problems at work the same way?

We gather, we talk it through, we throw out ideas, we circle back… and eventually, someone takes the leap and just goes for it.

The best teams don’t always have the perfect plan right away.
They collaborate. They communicate. They challenge each other.
And then—they act.

Because progress doesn’t come from one person having all the answers… it comes from people coming together, thinking it through, and moving forward.

Sometimes solving the problem is less about who’s right… and more about working together until something works.

Now the real question…
Are you the one talking about the plan—or the one jumping in to get the ball? 🐾

Watching four marbles race feels simple — only a few competitors, one clear winner.

If only job searching worked that way.

Most of you aren’t competing against 4 candidates… you’re competing against hundreds, sometimes thousands, for the same role. That means your resume, LinkedIn profile, and interview story have to do more than “check the box.” They have to win the race in seconds.


In a crowded field:

-Your resume has to be ATS-friendly and results-driven.

-Your LinkedIn profile has to clearly position your value, not just your title.

-Your messaging has to show impact, not just experience.

-Your interviews have to prove fit, culture add, and business value.


You don’t get chosen by being average. You get chosen by being clear, compelling, and differentiated.

So, let me ask you — in a race with hundreds of applicants, is your personal brand built to finish first, or just hoping to place?

#bestweekever #jobseekers

Sometimes the coolest things look complicated… until someone breaks them down step by step.

That straw trick is a great reminder: when you slow it down and explain the why behind each move, everything suddenly makes sense.


Your resume should work the same way.

If a recruiter has to “figure out” what you do, you’re already losing them. Clarity beats complexity every time.

A few resume best practices to simplify and strengthen your message:

Lead with outcomes, not tasks. What changed because you were there?

Use numbers to tell the story (revenue, growth, time saved, efficiency, customer impact).

Write in plain language, not internal jargon. 

If a 10-year-old can’t understand the role, a busy recruiter probably won’t either.

Group related experience so your career progression is obvious at a glance.

Make your top value clear in the first third of the page. That’s your “hook.”


When you break your experience into clear, easy-to-follow pieces, your value becomes impossible to miss.

Are you making your resume easy to understand… or making recruiters work too hard to get it?

Watching someone ride a sled down a track—twists, turns, speed changes—against the snowy backdrop of Finland feels a lot like the job search.

You don’t control every turn.
You don’t always see what’s coming next.
And sometimes, the pace feels faster—or slower—than you expected.

But here’s the truth about a job seeker’s journey:

➡️ Every dip teaches resilience
➡️ Every climb builds momentum
➡️ Every unexpected turn sharpens clarity
➡️ Every pause gives you time to adjust your strategy

Too many professionals think their career path has to be perfectly straight to be “right.”

It doesn’t.

What matters is staying on the track, learning as you go, and trusting that each section of the ride is preparing you for what’s ahead.

Your resume shows where you’ve been.
Your cover letter explains the journey.
Your mindset determines whether you enjoy the ride—or fight it.

🎯 So here’s the question:

Are you gripping the rails in fear… or leaning into the ride and trusting your momentum?

Sometimes, the most memorable careers are built on the boldest turns.

Watching a machine play the guitar in public is a powerful reminder of where the world of work is heading.

Yes, AI and automation will make some roles obsolete.

Just like machines replaced certain factory jobs, switchboards, and even some accounting tasks.

But here’s the part most people miss:

AI isn’t only a job taker. It’s also a career accelerator for those who know how to use it.

The professionals who will win in this new era are the ones who learn how to:
• Use AI to work faster
• Make better decisions
• Analyze data more effectively
• Communicate more clearly
• Automate low-value tasks
• Focus their time on strategy, creativity, and leadership


Just like a guitarist who uses technology to enhance their sound, not replace their talent, your value grows when you learn to work with AI instead of competing against it.

The future doesn’t belong to those who fear AI.

It belongs to those who learn how to leverage it.

How are you leveraging it in your job?

Picture a 3D printer crafting all sorts of fidget spinners—custom shapes, colors, and designs. It’s fun and automated! But your resume? 

That’s a different story. 

ChatGPT can certainly help generate content ideas—but it can’t replace the insight of a professional who looks at your resume holistically. 

A human expert asks the right questions—about what you’ve included and what you might have overlooked—ensuring your value shines. 

So, when was the last time you had a conversation about what truly sets you apart?

Watching our neighbor’s dog sprint up and down a Maui beach—leaping through the sand, chasing nothing but happiness—made me smile.

But it also made me think about something I see every day with jobseekers.

A lot of professionals are working hard in their job search…

Yet still feel like they’re running in circles.

➡️ Applying to dozens of roles
➡️ Tweaking resumes without a clear strategy
➡️ Guessing what recruiters want
➡️ Following outdated advice
➡️ Feeling exhausted but not closer to an offer

Just like running on soft sand, effort alone doesn’t always equal progress.

The job market has its own terrain:
	•	ATS systems
	•	Keywords and alignment
	•	Clear positioning
	•	Strong storytelling through resumes and cover letters

Once you understand the landscape, your energy starts working for you—not against you.

That’s where I help jobseekers:
✔️ Clarify direction
✔️ Build resumes that actually get read
✔️ Craft cover letters that tell your story
✔️ Create a focused strategy so you stop spinning your wheels

🎯 So here’s my question:
Are you making progress in your job search… or just running hard and hoping it works?

If you’re ready to stop running in circles and start moving with purpose, I’m always happy to help.

These vodka bottles are impossible to ignore. Unique shapes, bold designs, and instantly recognizable on the shelf.

That’s exactly how you want to show up in an interview.

Most candidates talk about the same skills, use the same phrases, and answer questions in very similar ways. The ones who stand out are the ones who know how to position their uniqueness — their story, their results, and the specific value they bring to that role.


A few interview tips to help you stand out:

-Lead with impact, not duties. Share what you changed, improved, grew, or fixed.

-Tell short, clear stories using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result).

-Connect your experience directly to their problems, not just your past roles.

-Show personality and confidence, not just qualifications.

-Ask thoughtful questions that show you’re already thinking like someone in the role.


Just like these bottles, you don’t want to blend in on the shelf — you want to be the one they remember.

Why Your LinkedIn Profile Photo Matters

Your photo is your first impression—before anyone reads your headline, summary, or experience.


❌ What not to do:

• Cropped wedding or vacation photos
• Group shots where people can’t tell who you are
• Sunglasses, hats, car selfies, or low-resolution images
• Poor lighting that makes you look tired or unapproachable


✅ What works:

• A clear, professional head-and-shoulders shot
• Neutral background and natural light
• Confident, approachable expression
• Attire that matches your industry level


People connect with people, not profiles.

Your photo sets the tone for credibility, trust, and approachability.

Ever notice how some of the best things don’t happen at full speed?

Careers.
Growth.
Confidence.
Clarity.

They don’t always come from rushing or reacting — they come from knowing when to slow down, look around, and move with intention.

So if your job search, career pivot, or next big decision feels “slow” right now… that doesn’t mean you’re stuck.

It might mean you’re doing it right.

Sometimes slowing down is how you avoid burnout, make better choices, and actually enjoy the process.

👉 Are you moving too fast… or finally moving on purpose?

Your resume might look great… but can it beat the ATS bots? 🤖

Most resumes never make it to human eyes because they aren’t built for how systems actually scan, rank, and filter candidates. That’s why my Advanced Resume Package focuses on more than just writing — it’s about strategy.

You get an editable, ATS-optimized resume, a cover letter, and 3 Beat-the-Bots scans so your resume is positioned to pass the software and reach real recruiters.

Because a resume should open doors, not get buried in a database.

Is your resume built to be found or just formatted?
