Empower Your Sales Team with High-Energy Keynotes That Drive Revenue Growth and Inspire Action
As a trained hypnotist, I have a deep understanding of how the unconscious mind can prevent salespeople from reaching their full potential. My expertise in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) empowers me to guide sales professionals through breaking unconscious mental blocks, enabling them to elevate their success.
Since 2003, I’ve helped thousands of salespeople overcome their limitations and consistently perform at their peak. This experience has led me to develop a mindset toolkit that unlocks higher levels of performance and transforms how salespeople achieve their goals.
My keynote presentations consistently receive top ratings from audiences who describe them as funny, entertaining, and packed with actionable insights. Attendees walk away with strategies they can implement immediately to drive better sales results.
Keynote – Mindset Mastery: Neuroscience Strategies For Sales Success
Have you wondered what separates A-players from the B-players in a sales organization? A-players are few but generate a lot of sales. B-players know how to sell. They do a good job but never achieve greatness.
The paradox is that most B players want to get better. Their sales managers spend a lot of time and money to help B players get better. But most B players never make the jump.
In this presentation, I share applied neuroscience and NLP strategies that help salespeople, leaders and mere mortals’ breakthrough their limitations so they become awesomer. These bolder salespeople have more passion, tenacity, and drive resulting in more deals being closed. Imagine the impact on your organization if 20% of the B-players became A-players. It would be huge, right?
You will learn:
- How to harness your crazy sexy brain
- How to overcome fear and reluctance
- What really drives human behavior?
- How to get unstuck and improve your performance today
This keynote goes beyond motivation—it’s a mindset shift, packed with actionable insights that you can apply to transform your sales game.
Best Sales Year Ever
I attended Umar's Making 2020 your best sales year ever presentation at the Institute for Excellence in Sales and was impressed on many levels. Umar has an amazing story, was completely engaging, and provided concrete advice on how to get your unconscious mind to shift to achieve more in 2020. It was entertaining, rememberable and insightful.
I Found the Right One
I met Umar when he spoke to our Accelerate Baltimore cohort in 2017. I enjoyed his session and the copy of his book he gave each of us. Several months later I realized that I needed some help fixing a hole in my game. In just a couple of weeks, Umar helped me find the root cause of my weakness and I no longer struggle. I never thought I would need a coach or guru or whatever you call what Umar does, but I did, and I found the right one. It doesn't hurt that Umar is also fun, interesting, and a genuinely kind person.
Great Presenter, Great Techniques.
Have you ever attended a presentation that had a significant impact on your life?
Umar spoke to a professional group I belong to, the Institute for Excellence in Sales. But he didn't just speak, he had us up and out of our seats, making neural connections and visualizing in a way that engaged both our bodies and minds.
What was so significant for me was the clarity of the vision I had while doing these activities - I could see a crystal clear picture of what I would be doing in a year's time. It was perfectly timed too as I was meeting with a marketing strategist that very same day.
Great presenter, great techniques.
My philosophy when presenting is to accomplish these goals:
- Give each attendee a breakthrough, an insight, or a mindset tool that will increase their performance immediately.
- Give them powerful insights that they can’t wait to go home a share with their spouse. “Honey, you won’t believe what a learned today”
- Be entertaining so they have a great time learning (and invite me back)
- Make everyone in the audience feel like they are having an intimate conversation with me
- Most of all, I want them to know they can break through any barrier that is holding them or their organization back
- I have done keynote speeches at conferences in 16 countries. No matter where in the world you go people want to know, how can I get my employees and teams to break through their limitations so they deliver exceptional results.
