We Are All Sales, People

With over thirty years achieving excellence in corporate sales and leadership, Brett Keirstead is a highly trained sales professional and mentor who has turned around under-performing sales teams, coached rising managers and executives to success, and worked alongside other C-suite executives to secure profitable, complex projects that drive revenue, lower costs, and lead to high company valuations. In his personal life, Brett is keenly aware of the importance of communication. His own birthfather was a natural-born salesman who left his mother and brother when Brett was young. Despite the gift of persuasion, his father never used his gift to benefit others. In contrast, Brett applies the sales and leadership skills he uses at work to improve his relationships at home as a husband and father of three. In his community, Brett has served as a youth sports coach for fifteen years and a Board member of the Burnsville Fire Soccer club for five years, seeing firsthand the challenges that come from the current lack of civility in our society. As a result, he is passionate about paying his experiences forward by showing others how to leverage the five key strategies of professional sales to help people improve their communication skills and interpersonal relationships at home, at school, and at work.
