Dianna Gallen, Marketing, Keystone Answering Service
Being a new business owner coming from a Corporate Environment without direct sales experience put me at a disadvantage in getting our new Franchise up and running. Luckily, I met Gary Kurtis who owns SalesTips101 through a Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce event.Gary and I met a few times and discussed the types services we provide. Gary also suggested a tour of our facility in King of Prussia, PA to see how our business operates. After these meetings, Gary was able to quickly and efficiently gain an understanding of the services we offer and the types of customers we are trying to reach. Gary then took this understanding and summarized the challenges I was facing as it relates to the sales process and provided various recommendations to overcome these challenges. Gary & I met again to review the professionally prepared slide deck that was also sent to me electronically. The summary included many proven sales “tips” that Gary had successfully utilized over his many years of direct selling. I have already implemented some of the tactics Gary described regarding handling objections with a perspective client. His summary explained how objections come up and included various ways to overcome these types of objections to enable a potential customer to want to move forward and sign up for services.
I’m very thankful to Gary for providing his valuable insight as well as some very useful external resources and I fully expect that following Gary’s recommendations will help me to become more successful with my sales process and ultimately lead to signing long term customers to use our services.
Best regards,
“Gary spent time with me to figure out how I could boost my business. He was thorough in his analysis to make sure he pointed me in the right direction. He understood my strengths and weaknesses to come up with a plan tailored to me. I came away with a number of new strategies to implement and a greater sense of confidence and optimism.
Thanks again for spending time with me! It is appreciated.”

Gary you have done more than you know for my confidence and helping me find my footing again, and I would recommend you to anybody that I know that needs a sales coach. You asked great questions, were insightful with feedback and gave positive reinforcement of my decades long sales tools already in place. You were kind and encouraging and I thank you for your kindness. You’ve done a great job with the time that you had with me and I would recommend Gary’s training to new and seasoned sales people alike. You are a great mentor & coach!
We knew we needed to up our sales game. Gary helped us qualify new clients and gave us a pathway to better understand our prospects’ needs and ultimately drive more sales. Gary’s sales experience and his ability to communicate has not only helped us reach our short-term goals, but has now helped us create a plan to continue to grow. If your sales team needs some no-nonsense techniques to qualify and sell more business, call Gary. Thank you, Gary! We are forever grateful.

I have had the great benefit of having Gary Kurtis coach me in methods of marketing in today’s world. Every session was wonderfully helpful! He is a wealth of information, coaches clearly, custom tailors it to one’s particular business, does so with the highest of integrity, and goes way beyond the call of duty to make sure everything is completely understood and absorbed so that the desired result is obtained. I highly recommend Gary!
I highly recommend Gary and Salestips 101! I have been in sales for a few years but wanted to get back to the basics and hear a fresh perspective on the sales process. Gary used his many years of knowledge and expertise to develop a plan that worked for me and my goals. I thoroughly enjoyed our many conversations and being able to pick his brain. He came prepared for every session and always send a detailed recap after. Anyone who is in sales just starting out or needs a refresher on the basics should speak with Gary.
Comments from a recent presentation to the Fort Washington Network Professionals.
“Hi Gary, I thought your presentation was great – you are a master of your trade!”
I recommend Gary, if you need to evaluate your sales processes. He and I worked together to decide what needed to be improved before moving forward.
He is very knowledgeable and works with you directly to understand what you are doing and help upgrade the parts of your sales process.
Hello Gary,
I do believe that the work we have done together has benefited me greatly. In general, I feel more prepared and more confident when I am on the phone talking to leads, and I believe that is starting to translate into some good results.

Thanks, Mariel, Mariel Gniewoz-Weiss, Realtor®,
I’d like to inform any small business or individual of the skill and wisdom that Gary Kurtis provides with his customized sales training. As the founder of a non profit 501C3 organization devoted to scholarships for college students, I contacted Gary when I recognized that I needed help propagating our mission to our target markets. From Gary’s analysis of my needs and goals he was able to give me the confidence I lacked along with the specific sales skills to reach our target markets through a variety of methods. For a non profit organization to succeed it must operate like any business which requires specific sales skills to grow the business. Thus from my experience I strongly recommend Gary, particularly if you are a non profit.
I want to take this opportunity to recommend an outstanding sales coach. Gary Kurtis has assisted teams and individuals through his unique sales training and workshops. I have been the fortunate beneficiary of his sales advice and can say it has been all uphill. With his knowledge and expertise gained from years of analyzing multiple industries, Gary continues to educate and mentor various professional occupations, business owners, and their teams, increasing their sales activities and conversion rates. Thank you Gary, and I wish you continued success. ~Dave Leta, Marketing Manager and Word of Mouth Specialist.
If you are looking to improve your business through proven sales techniques, then you must schedule a consultation with Gary Kurtis. Gary shares what works and what doesn’t work based on his amazingly successful sales career. Gary takes the time to listen to what your needs are, helps you establish goals, and apply measurable accomplishments. What I appreciate most about Gary’s coaching style is that it is customized to each client’s individual needs and objectives, not at all cookie-cutter. In just a few sessions, I’ve learned so much about how to improve my business. It’s always a pleasure talking with Gary and I very much appreciate his guidance and cannot wait for my next coaching session with him.
Gary is an interesting combination of humility with a deep understanding of a what it means to be a true sales professional. If you are breaking into sales or need to ramp up your edge, talk with Gary.
“Gary’s years of experience are put to great use helping others to boost their sales confidence.”
“Gary is a great guy! He even donates some of the profits to the ALS Hope Foundation.”

Gary Kurtis is a highly skilled sales professional. Gary helped me build the sales aspect of my business during the pandemic and I am forever grateful. Since we met, my ability to track sales and manage expectations has astronomically improved the level of business at Field 1 Post. When you need advice on building sales relationships and learning about the latest trends in sales, look no further than Gary Kurtis. Gary is a fantastic friend and advisor! He truly is a knowledgeable and trustworthy professional in sales coaching.
Anyone who is in the field of sales has absorbed books, Audios, Podcasts, and numerous other kinds of Sales Training by experts. None of these in my opinion, compare with the personal and consultative approach that Gary uses with his clients. I sat with and got to know him and his style. Then over several sessions he made recommendations of how I can implement improvements & do things better. I have started using just a few of the recommendations and have already seen an improvement in sales. I Highly recommend that you consult with Gary! Unless you just don’t want to earn any more.
Gary organized and ran a workshop for my team which helped light a bit of a fire under them. He took the time to listen to our needs and customized his approach around what we wanted to accomplish. We have scheduled a follow up workshop with him to dig even deeper. It was especially rewarding to see our team members putting into practice what he learned on an appointment later that same day. Thanks, Gary!

Gary recently provided a customized sales coaching call for myself and my team. His sales knowledge and passion for helping others makes him an incredible resource to have on your side. He took the time to get to know me personally and professionally and tailored his information to our specific industry and sales challenges.

He left us with many great ideas to process and implement and we are all confident our sales toolbox is now better equipped to help us succeed in growing our businesses!

Gary Kurtis doesn’t disappoint. His knowledge of sales principles and sales experience are just what I needed to give me some direction on what success looks like when transitioning recently to a new sales role. His professionalism and personality put me at ease and made the experience fun! Thanks Gary!
I have personally worked with Gary directly as a customer in his sales process coaching. I highly recommend Gary and his services to anybody looking to improve their, or their team’s, sales acumen. Gary and I had multiple conversations diving into every corner of my business. The in-depth questions, challenging some preconceived notions, and approaching the business from different angles really helped open up my mind to doing things differently and learn more about how I can transform my sales techniques to fill the sales funnel and close out the sales process to generate revenue. Gary’s recommendations have been extremely helpful and I can personally attest to the results.
I’ve gotten the chance to get to know Gary over the course of the past several months, and he brings so much care and wisdom to any conversation. If you’re a #businessowner looking for sales coaching, Gary is a great place to start!
