Transitioning from teaching is about reclaiming your life.

We approach the journey in a way that prioritizes autonomy, purpose, and growth, rather than staying in a system that feels restrictive.

You’re not asking, “How can I endure another year?”

You’re asking, “What kind of future do I want to create?” and building a career that aligns with that vision.

You're not running away from teaching; you're stepping into a new career that values your experience and supports your growth

We focus on providing clear guidance, efficient strategies, and building momentum with personalized support.

At the end of the day, what binds us together is a simple goal:

Build a career that values your skills, offers balance, and provides fulfillment, while leaving the stress of teaching behind.

Founder

Accelerated Sales Inc.

I teach SMB Founders & CEOs how to consistently drive revenue using Lean & Agile principles to build scalable sales processes & playbooks.

Founders & CEOs engage me when:

•	Revenue growth is unpredictable
•	New market opportunities are not being captured by the sales team
•	They realize their sales process is not codified, teachable, or scalable

I take a pragmatic approach to each client engagement by assessing your current selling environment and gaining a deep understanding of how your customers actually want to buy from you. 

I then work with you to apply Lean & Agile principles to your current sales process through a DMAIC approach.

Define 
•	your ideal customer and their unique buying requirements
•	your sales process map

Measure
•	collect your relevant sales data 
•	determine how your current sales process is actually performing against sales targets

Analyze 
•	review your sales data to identify potential process flow problems 
•	confirm identified causes of the problems
•	verify the impact the problems are having on your sales results

Improve
•	develop your improved sales process map solution
•	implement and verify the solution 
•	measure improvement against sales targets/results

Control 
•	teach you how to ensure the sales process is managed and monitored 
•	teach you how to continuously improve the sales process using Six Sigma principles 

No Sales Process in place today? No problem!

We leverage a DMADVO approach to Define, Measure, Analyze, DESIGN, VERIFY, & OPTIMIZE your customized sales process.
