While he specializes in customized solutions, Bob Riess offers “off the shelf” seminars that can be customized to meet the needs of our clients. These seminars are working sessions that provide simple solutions to complex issues. They are designed to give you the skills to be more effective without increasing your cost of doing business.

As a natural “introvert,” Bob Riess inexplicably chose sales as his career upon college graduation. However, Bob figured out what it took to succeed in sales by providing a superior level of customer service. His success allowed him to achieve all eligible NCR Century Point Club’s by selling over 100% of established quotas before being promoted to NCR Systemedia’s sales trainer. Initially hired by GE as a sales trainer, Bob received trainer certifications on several consultative selling skills programs and has applied these same skills to build his own success. Bob believes that success does not come from being “pushy” but can come from making simple changes to providing customer service and moving the sales process forward.

"Training Through Non-Trainers" is for you if:

  • You are faced with the challenge of developing a training program.
  • You are given the role of “trainer” but do not really know what to do next.
  • You can not figure out why people seem to “tune out” whenever you turn on your PowerPoint slides.
  • You have conducted training sessions in the past but really have no idea if you had a positive effect.
  • You would like to “pass the ball” and ensure continued success after you have provided training to others.

"Presenting and Training for Sales Results" is for you if:

  • You need to understand how to conduct presentations that sell without selling.
  • You are providing training and presentations to prospective customers on behalf of you company.
  • You are great at training others but would like to sell without selling.
  • You want to use presentations and training to promote your expertise.
  • You would like the audience contact you after your next presentation or training session.

After spending several years in sales, marketing and sales training, Bob Riess was given the role of global deployment of end user training for custom software applications. His training skills were put to the test as he tried to figure out new and innovative ways to make end user training both interesting and useful. While at GE, his promotions led him to roles that required him to analyze performance issues and develop training curriculum that had a measured impact on the business. Bob believes that many business issues can NOT be solved by training, but that if training is the answer, it should be customized for the client to leverage existing resources and
  give learners the ability to perform.
