Detail:

Whether you are looking to close a sale for business or close the sale to get the job, this talk will add value.

Pam Hudadoff will be speaking on "Persuasive Momentum". Without persuasive momentum, you will never close a sale. So, why haven't you heard about it before? Because selling used to be much simpler than it is today. Buyers now have many more channels from which to obtain information, and they
take advantage of all of those channels to help them in their buying process. In this month's meetup, we will discuss techniques that can be used to create persuasive momentum in your marketing and sales activities. When this meeting is over, attendees will be able to:


  • Understand what persuasive momentum is and what it looks like.
  • Identify activities where persuasive momentum is never established or is lost.
  • Get into the mind of your buyer using buyer personas.
  • Use the prospect’s buying process to align marketing and sales activities.
  • Design persuasive momentum into the marketing and sales processes.


All attendees will receive a free copy of either Get a copy of either '42 Rules of Cold Calling Executives' or '42 Rules of Marketing'. This will be an evening you can't miss!

    I feel like I was just handed the key to open a secret locked room. Thanks so much Pam. You were terrific!!! And thank you too, Mitchell for bringing her to us. - Catherine Adams Lee
  • Tom Bleier
    Good topic. Great Speaker! I thought $20 was a lot to pay for a meetup event. I have been to may others with much more content that are free. I would go again if it was free and there were more people there. Mitchell seems to want to sell books or attract potential authors. I felt like I was paying $20 and being sold to as certain points. Out of the 12-15 people there it seemed like 3-5 of them were wanting to sell services to me. I would prefer more active marketing professionals so we could discuss current issues or techniques.
  • Michael Shraybman
    Reputable speaker, good tips on de-composing the buying/selling process and making it more predictable. The book is useful, too! Thanks Mitchell for organizing this.
  • Paul Kirk
    Well organized, well thought out, excellent presentation and expressed at the right level for the audience that showed up.
  • Kenna Mawk
    This was a good session. Ann clearly knows her stuff. BTW - Mitchell wanted to know if this format worked and the answer is yes, it worked very well.
  • Laura Powers
    Awesome talk... left me wishing we had more time & wanting to hear more. Marvelous group of people & great topic. Not the same old group talking about the same old stuff. I look forward to seeing what Mitchell cooks up next month!
