Just who is Mark Winder?

As a Sales and Marketing Professional, and an Entrepreneur myself for over 18 years, I have personally implemented the tools in all my online courses - with great success.

I've always had a passion for entrepreneurship and sales. And - in my experience - the two are always linked hand-in-hand.

I got my first taste of being a business owner when, at the age of 18, I started my own business to help pay my way through university. In the summer between high school and my first university semester, I not only earned enough to pay my way, I was also running a business so vibrant, that my parents decided to step in and run it for me while I attended my classes.

During the course of my university education, I learned a TON about what it takes to succeed in as an entrepreneur. I learned a lot of the pitfalls, and I also had some GREAT successes - like being written up in Entrepreneur magazine, and selling franchises of my computer-cleaning business into Canada, Britain and the U.S.

Being an impetuous youth, I wanted to spread my wings and further test the world of commerce. And in doing so, I got the opportunity to learn and further hone my sales skills in a variety of industries: from high technology, to high-end mountain bikes; with stops in the human resource and financial sectors along the way.

The one thing I noticed from all my experiences, was that there was a common thread that runs through all industries: sales. Sales is the very lifeblood of all commerce, and I made it my mission to become an expert at it.

But I realized that there were two very different approaches to sales - the flash-in-the-pan approach that manipulates a customer into a one-time sale, and the notion of creating a win-win partnership with your customer over the long term.

For me, I realized my passion lined up with the win-win partnership approach where I created a relationship with my customers, and helped them solve their problems.

And over the years, I realized that my passion to help my customers often morphed into me providing them with sales advice. Helping my customers achieve their business goals - above and beyond the products and services I was selling - was something that really resonated with me. And when I realized that, I decided to become the Sales Made Simple coach and help out even more people, full time!

So that's me in a few paragraphs. I'm looking forward to working with you, and helping you achieve your goals. If you'd like to know more about me, or if you have any questions about any of my programs, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Here's to your success!
