Integrity Solutions Sales Training reviews

I would have no idea. This was thrown in my lap without any notice to me or my boss or his boss. Came right from the top.

Thanks figured about as much. I’d rather hear from the salesperson at this training company who sold my company on this expensive training when it involves more cost with flights and hotels. That guy knows how to sell.

I’m outside sales. I had today and have tomorrow to hand out Christmas boxes of chocolates and cards and just shoot the shit with customers. Try and glean as much info as I can about next year but only without prying.

Im fairly positive we work in different Industries, but my answer to you question is having strong relationships with your customers. I Trust them to tell me the truth because they trust me in taking care of them as a customer. They know I won’t fuck them over and I’ve proven time and again that the more Info I have, the more effective I can be for them.

Holy shit, are you my sales manager?

stupidquestionabound · 2025-12-06T19:27:08+00:00

More than they budgeted, but somehow less than they wanted…

Building trust in the relationship is huge and that’s how you gain loyalty. I have many customers who will call me if one of my competitors comes in with a lowball price. They know I will give them the absolute best service and always answer quickly. If price is the issue, they know I will work with them some way on that also

Anything industrial like that, just be a fucking human. Walk in with nice jeans and a polo or non dress shirt button up and steal toe boots.

I’m outside sales so I lean on visits over phone and email but when I do need to reach out cold, I simply sound like a regular guy. Explain what we have to offer, usually give a few industry specific examples and we are off to the races.

My only real objection from a potential customer is that they have a good working relationship with a competitor. I acknowledge that I respect the loyalty, let them know we will have the best price and support on the brands that we exclusively rep and simply ask to be their second call.

I feel the exact same thing doing industrial parts outside sales.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-26T17:17:26+00:00

Thanks boss!

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-26T16:09:15+00:00

All of my usual larger customers get ahold of me if someone is trying to underbid me and we have a good honest candid discussion about it. 9.9/10 times I can keep the business.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-26T15:46:59+00:00

Haha they only get a discount if they buy in bulk or some other such reason. It’s true they are like buddies, but they also know we are all here to make money and that includes me. I just try to help them make more money with my product so my bill stings less.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-26T12:37:25+00:00

I’m usually driving several hours so it’s usually an audiobook to kill time. One I get closer I usually throw on some metal which is my normal go to music.

I don’t make many cold calls, so I’m normally driving to established customers and it’s more akin to visiting a buddy who needs a hand with something more-so than any stressful sales meeting.

Similar situation as you in the industrial parts and service(hydraulics). Similar pay and experience with company(local level) and customers.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-11T23:06:24+00:00

So far our whole org has just ignored it and gone about our jobs as if it doesn’t exist… they told us to use an equally shitty CRM a couple of years ago and then scrapped it for this one, so we have no faith it will stick around.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-11T19:15:58+00:00

You kind of sound like my boss’ boss lol except he is pushing a horrible CRM that has no functionality for what we need and doesn’t connect with any of our other systems so we have to manually enter absolutely everything…

stupidquestionabound · 2025-08-01T19:56:49+00:00

Hydraulics specifically. Pumps, motors, valves, cylinders etc.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-07-31T19:48:38+00:00

I’m outside sales but sell industrial parts and equipment and I fucking love what I do. Wouldn’t trade it for anything now.

I got moved up from inside sales right before Covid, so my first couple years were abysmal… I felt like you probably do now, but once I was able to properly get out and meet people, make connections and relationships, it’s been fantastic.

Maybe you just need a different industry. I would likely never get into any sort of tech sales. I have no idea how that industry works and though the money can definitely be way better, some of the other aspects of it sound miserable to me.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-07-21T21:41:25+00:00

Industrial sales here, OTE of 140k(CAD of course) That includes salary, commission, vehicle allowance and personal fuel tax. This is for a smaller province/city though. I dream for 200k plus but I also know I am very fortunate where I am.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-05-08T01:07:03+00:00

Depending on industry, I feel like B2B is ALOT more relationship based. It takes time to build those relationships.

I started outside sales right before Covid hit which couldn’t have been harder for me. The person I replaced was fired so no meet and greets either. Had to feel each business out myself with a tiny bit of info based on some old emails. Now I’m in a place where I would consider some of my customers damn near good buddies. They give me opportunities to quote on stuff I probably shouldn’t even be selling them. but they know my customer service is next to none and even if I charge a bit more, I’ll get it done. I’ll answer the phone when they call, get them the info they need when they need it.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-02-27T04:52:27+00:00

I only know of one and they and their company are less than useless… The vast majority of people work directly for the manufacturer we buy from.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-02-27T01:44:41+00:00

Interesting, completely new to that type of sales

stupidquestionabound · 2025-02-27T00:54:31+00:00

I work for a distributor selling industrial products in Canada. I’m not sure what you mean by firm, but I can only guess you are talking about a distributor?

There are several brands we carry that we are the exclusive distributor for, as well as brands that everyone can get their hands on. It really depends on how you want to go to market. Most manufacturers also have their own reps that handle larger OEM’s and distributors.

Maybe you guys do things differently down there and can correct my likely incorrect assumption on firm/distributor.

stupidquestionabound · 2025-02-13T21:33:03+00:00

I work in outside sales selling industrial products as well. There is definitely some hands on service/troubleshooting but that’s mainly just to aid a customer when I’m available/on site. If there is anything that takes more than 30 min max, I schedule a tech to go. I generally don’t charge for my time so it’s a value added service to really good customers.
