Welcome to the CEO Sales Strategies Podcast, where America's number one sales revenue expansion expert, Doug C. Brown interviews CEOs with $5M plus companies to uncover and share actionable tips and strategies behind their bulletproof sales strategies. Is your current sales growth frustrating you? Are your sales numbers so imprecise that you cannot make accurate sales forecasts? Do you think your sales teams or salespeople could do better in finding prospective clients and/or selling more with higher profitably? Want to enhance your hiring process to consistently produce top sales performers for your teams? Do you wish you could sell more to clients with larger revenues? If you have experienced any of these problems, you are not alone. Many companies find themselves stuck in a futile struggle to gain more revenue and profit, get frustrated with their salespeople and sales teams, and find themselves mired in stress, burnout and even hopelessness. You may already own or run a multi-million-dollar business, but it takes quite another leap to turn your company into a major industry player worth tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars. Could there be something you can do about your pitching strategies? How is your sales process looking? Are you hiring the right people in your sales teams? How is your internal talent development? What does your company culture look like? Are your salespeople accountable enough for their numbers and performance? Most importantly, are you in the right mindset to be able to scale your business exponentially? There are but some of the numerous factors in your business that may be holding you back from growing your company beyond its current worth. How badly do you want to finally see a change in your quarters? Will you do whatever it takes to get out of that bind and take your business on a trajectory to become something bigger? Are you sick of waiting at the back of the line to be on par with the A-players in your industry? Are you willing to challenge your beliefs, change your mindset, and take steps to optimize your processes? If you are, then you have come to the right place.

  • $100M Decisions Die When You Sell Too Early

    $100M Decisions Die When You Sell Too Early
    Apr 7 2026
    Your pipeline isn’t broken—your buyers don’t trust the decision. You’re losing deals before they ever reach a real evaluation. Most teams are still selling like information wins deals. It doesn’t. Buyers already have the data—they’re trying to avoid making a decision that costs them their job, reputation, or future options. When your team leads with answers instead of control, the buyer stays stuck. Conversations drift. Risk goes unaddressed. And deals quietly die long before procurement, pricing, or competition ever matter. This is where close rates collapse—and where EBITDA leakage starts compounding across the pipeline. Lee Levitt, founder of Accelera Group, works with companies navigating complex, high-risk buying decisions—and exposes the patterns that cause buyers to hesitate, stall, or walk away entirely.

  • 25% Of Lost Deals Didn’t Need To Happen

    25% Of Lost Deals Didn’t Need To Happen
    Mar 31 2026
    When sales managers are not coaching deals well, weak opportunities stay alive too long, forecasts get softer, and operating pressure rises for the wrong reasons. Revenue can still go up for a while, but margin quality, cash timing, and predictability start to break underneath it. That is how CEOs end up working harder, seeing more activity, and still wondering why the money is not in the bank. This matters because the gains here are not cosmetic. In the discussion, better deal coaching is tied to a 5% increase in win rate, a 15% shorter sales cycle, and a 25% reduction in lost deals. That means earlier cash, less wasted selling expense, tighter EBITDA, and a sales engine you can scale without widening the leaks in the bucket. Alan Versteeg, co-founder of Growth Matters, has developed more than 2,000 sales managers across 45+ countries and argues that predictable growth starts when managers stop inspecting dashboards and start coaching deals, pipeline, and forecast.

  • Growing While Losing $250,000 a Year

    Growing While Losing $250,000 a Year
    Mar 24 2026
    Revenue can grow while profit quality gets worse. A bigger company can still become less valuable. That usually starts where most founders are not looking: underpriced agreements, labor-heavy delivery, high-maintenance clients, and churn that gets hidden by new sales. The top line rises. The economics weaken. What looks like momentum can actually be a scaling penalty. More clients, more people, and more activity do not protect EBITDA when the business is carrying the wrong revenue, the wrong cost structure, and the wrong expectations inside client relationships. By the time leadership feels the pressure, the damage is already embedded. Gilad Bechar, CEO and founder of Moburst, shares what became visible only after growth stopped masking the real cost of how the business was operating. Learn more about your ad choices.
