What The Power of Why covers

This isn’t a features-and-benefits refresher. Most salespeople lose deals they should have won, not because they didn’t know the product, but because they didn’t know the person. The Power of Why fixes that.

  • AI in the Sales Process
  • Goal Achievement
  • Personality Profiles
  • Territory Management
  • Site & Application Survey
  • Walk-Around Demo
  • Closing Techniques
  • Effective Communication
  • Financial Merchandising

Performance mindset

Self-image, identity, and the inner game of sales, the mindset tools that separate the top 5% from everyone else.

Benefits

Why The Power of Why is different

Principle-based, not tactic-based

No scripts, no gimmicks, no pressure techniques, built from 30 years of real field experience in material handling sales.

Buyer psychology, not just product

Reps learn to uncover emotional motivation before the pitch starts, and to read any buyer’s personality type in minutes.

Delivered by an industry-leading sales trainer

Led by Todd McBroom, an independent sales trainer who works with companies across North America, not a hired outside consultant.

Built for the AI era

Todd is leading the field in bringing AI into the sales process, without losing the human, personal touch that closes deals. It’s built right into the curriculum.

No Death-by-PowerPoint

This isn’t a slide marathon you sit through. It’s a live, interactive working session, real scenarios, real practice, and skills your team can use the next morning. You leave having done the work, not just watched a deck.

How It Works

Five steps that take your team from why you sell to why they buy.

Step 1

We Start With You

Before we ever talk about forklifts, features, or closing techniques, we talk about you. Who you are, what you want, and, most importantly, why you want it. Your WHY is the engine. Everything else is just the vehicle. Day one starts by finding yours.

Step 2

We Figure Out Who You’re Selling To

Not every buyer thinks like you do. Not every buyer decides like you do. You’ll learn to read any prospect’s personality type in minutes and communicate in a way that actually lands. The right message to the wrong personality type is still the wrong message.

Step 3

We Get Into Their Head (Ethically)

Top performers don’t sell products. They uncover problems, connect to emotions, and position solutions in a way the buyer feels before they can explain it. This is where buyer psychology, emotional motivation, and the art of asking better questions come together into a repeatable process you can use on every call.

Step 4

We Build the Confidence to Execute

Knowledge without confidence is just trivia. This is where mindset, self-image, and the inner game of sales get addressed head-on. You’ll walk away knowing not just what to do, but who you need to become to do it consistently, even when the market is soft and the pipeline is thin.

Step 5

You Leave With a Plan, Not Just a Feeling

Most training events give you a good two days and a notebook you never open again. This one ends with clarity, a personal action plan, a defined WHY, and a framework you can apply Monday morning. The goal isn’t inspiration. The goal is execution.
