About Greg Zippi

Greg Zippi is a B2B sales consultant, coach, and speaker. He spent 33 years in full-time sales, closed over half a billion dollars in business, and now teaches what statistically validated research says top performers do differently.

In 2019, shortly after retiring from his 33-year selling career, Greg proposed a custom Professional Selling course to a university near his home. He wanted to give back after a rewarding, fulfilling career. The university accepted his offer, and the results were more positive than he had imagined.

He then adapted the curriculum into a consulting framework, available in multiple formats suited to today’s business world. That is the origin of The Professional Selling Academy. All of its services and training are based on statistically validated third-party research.

Experience

Greg was in professional sales full-time from 1986 to 2019 as an individual contributor, sales manager, and sales executive, including at Oracle Corporation and Adobe Systems. He was personally involved in closing over half a billion dollars in sales.
