Chief entrepreneur dedicated to achieving the SALES4SURE mission: reduction from 75% to 50% in the failure rate of startups due primarily to lack of capital and sales skills.
Bio
Ms. Stillman is President and Co-founder of SALES4SURE, a developer of innovative training products for rapidly conveying sales skills. Along with a partner, she recognized a market gap that exists for entrepreneurs who seek to acquire sales skills, but at a low price point. Linda realized that to serve this need, new delivery models would have to be developed for learning.
Applying her past experience in sales to the medical sector and the +30 years business-to-business sales experience of her father-in-law, SALES4SURE has developed training products that help rapidly advance entrepreneurs to sales competency, before they fully understand why certain skills produce truly amazing results.
Through SALES4SURE parent, Assured Sales Products Institute, Ms. Stillman and her faculty of sales pros offer training to the public about the SALES4SURE® skills and methodology. In addition to numerous individual entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs, her clients include the U.S. Small Business Administration, Rutgers University, William Paterson University, Centenary College and select private-sector companies.
