Zev Young

Sales Professor | Certified Professional Sales
Coach | Sales Leader | Sales Innovator

I have a deep-rooted passion for all things sales. Sales comes from developing, maintaining, and cultivating relationships that matter. As a framework, and after years of research I have created a simplified sales method call the “ZY Sales Method,” that can help one become more confident and enthusiastic about sales and the sales process. -Relationships Matter!

About Zev Young

Sales Professor | Certified Professional Sales Coach | Sales Leader | Sales Innovator

For the past 20 years, I have interviewed, studied, and researched many of the best sales people, innovators, teachers, and business leaders. I have noticed a common theme with all of the top 1% sales professionals. They all adhere to the same sales formula – SW3 =N. I have worked with, and at, large and small companies with a keen focus on product launch, customer interaction, and closing for actionable business. I have gone through several sales training, management, and developmental courses and have been a sales representative and district manager. Currently, I am a professor of sales for the “Effective Selling” course (PRS-339) at Bentley University, and am a Certified Professional Sales Coach. I have been able to master what I have learned in the real world with real people and applied these practices to sales situations. My method works!

More About Zev

All sales professionals have time to think. Artificial Intelligence can’t do that. Covering a seven state territory I had windshield time. I had to become a student of my customers business. Each situation was different and each changed on every sales call. Asking questions became the skill required. Fitting the answers into each situation became the challenge. It still is.

My business has evolved to professional development for sales reps and their managers and to differentiate, I had to move from the business of selling to the business of making people have an emotional experience. Thinking about the other person is what I did on the road and what you must do to make your numbers.

I reached out to Zev to help articulate some outbound sales strategies to my teammates during a teach-back. Within 24 hours of reaching out we were able to connect and develop messaging that would be useful for everyone. Zev's passion for sales is second to none and I would recommend working with him to anyone looking to improve their approach.

I have had the distinct pleasure of being invited to work with the students in Zev’s classes within the Sales Degree program at Bentley College. Not only is Zev a key developer of this degree program, his classes are spectacularly effective in preparing these young people for a future sales role, no matter the industry. I am continually blown away by the level of preparedness, professionalism, and understanding of the sales process that they develop in their time with Zev. His passion emanates from all of the students, and frankly it energizes me and makes me better at what I do, some 40 years in to my own journey. Well done!!
