I'll teach you to sell with buyers, not to them I Founder @ Fluint.io

Selling with buyers (not to them), by creating deal champions is my jam.

The backstory, if you're curious: 

B2B sales has been my whole career, and I love it. 

Sometimes, I’m founding the products I sell. Other times, building teams to sell. 

I used to think sales reps close deals. Over time, I realized they don’t — buyers do.

That’s because buying decisions are made during the internal conversations happening about you, without you.

It's why I founded Fluint. To help B2B sales teams sell with their buyers, not to them. To stop losing deals when they're not in the room. 

I send out long-form content and templates/frameworks on this approach, Buyer Enablement, 2X per month. Signup for that email here:

Stop losing deals when you're not in the room.

Start selling with committed buying champions to land more enterprise deals.

Our platform is built on the fact B2B deals are won and lost during a buyer's internal meetings — not sales meetings. When champions pitch your product, and teams debate your value, without you.

But most deal champions wing their message, or create their own pitch materials, because they won’t send templates product decks filled with marketing speak to their boss.

To help, Fluint converts your buyer's own words from sales calls into a personalized business case your prospects are proud to champion with you.

Military Intelligence Platoon Leader

If you're a Veteran whose served or an Athlete who's played sports at elite levels, you know the transition to the "real world" can be a grab bag of emotions. 

You've trained for years, honing your craft.  Invested blood, sweat, and tears with teammates on the field of battle - proverbially and literally.  You've faced adversity that most could never imagine.  Some triumphs, some defeats, and many lessons learned.  Most the hard way.  And you're better because of it.  You're a resilient, battle tested competitor.  If not a warrior. 

And then all of the sudden...it's over.  

You walk away from all you've known and loved for as long as you can remember.  The foundation you built for years - your reputation, your accolades, your confidence - almost disappears the moment you flip the page to another chapter in your life. 

While some of you will enjoy more natural transitions (doctors, pilots, players turned coach, etc.), most will experience about everything from anxiety to depression as you ponder, "What the hell am I going to do with my life?"

No transferable skills to lean on. 

No certifications that amount to anything meaningful in the corporate world. 

No idea where to start.  Daunting to think about starting what's basically a new life from scratch.

But there's hope.  

Little may you know, your arsenal is stocked full of ammo to be an elite SaaS seller.  

It's just a matter of revealing your strengths, identifying your mentors, aligning your background to the right companies, and accelerating your sales learning curve by borrowing from those who've blazed the path before you.  One day, you too will pay it forward.    

Here to guide, grind, and grow alongside those who dare take the field...again.
