SELLING
EMPIRE SELLING is the world’s
only company-wide social selling
and marketing methodology. Our
customers range from startups
to Fortune 100 companies

SAP and Mastercard. We teach
modern techniques for pipeline
generation, client acquisition and
account management. Our focus
is on maximizing deal sizes and
shortening sales cycles.
OUR
HISTORY
Our CEO launched LinkedIn Sales
Navigator in 2012. Despite being
an industry changing product,
one of the biggest challenges for
Sales Navigator was user adoption.
Sales leaders could see the value
but struggled to get sellers to
leverage it effectively. Empire was
conceived during those early years
at LinkedIn. There was an obvious
gap in the market to provide highly
customized training. We are here
to help companies build their
Empires.

6. HOW WE
DO IT?
We engage with companies on
an annual basis. Activate and the
initial role-specific curriculum is
normally delivered via classroom
training. Ongoing learning and
development is provided via a
combination of classroom and/or
remote training. The methodology
is taught on a module-by-module
basis lending itself entirely to
remote training for companies
with regionally dispersed sellers.
