Session Information:

Setting the Standard for 2026

This session is designed to set the standard for 2026 by refocusing sales professionals on the core activities that consistently drive growth. Attendees will explore three foundational prospecting and revenue-building practices that every sales rep should be executing on a weekly basis.

The session will also clearly define the difference between manipulation and negotiation, and explain why that distinction is critical to long-term success. The emphasis is on building stamina, confidence, and discipline while elevating both individual performance and the industry through ethical, effective negotiation.

Participants will be introduced to a selection of FSM sales tools drawn directly from the FSM Sales Academy, including proven negotiation questions that protect the sales cycle and a straightforward, repeatable referral strategy.

Attendees will leave with practical tools, renewed clarity, and a disciplined, repeatable approach to growth—removing any excuse not to move their business forward after the session.
