Testimonials
Welcome to our testimonial page celebrating Jake, a true master of sales training who has transformed countless careers and businesses through his innovative approach. Combining the science of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), cutting-edge neurostrategy, and a wealth of practical experience, Jake has empowered his students to achieve remarkable results. His proven methods don’t just inspire; they deliver measurable ROI for businesses, making him a sought-after speaker at hundreds of events and workshops. With a track record of success and a growing community of happy, high-performing students, Jake continues to redefine what’s possible in the world of sales training.
When it comes to speaking, Jake has the best and most effective approach to delivering a talk or speech. I implemented it immediately after he taught it to me and I got the following response from the person that put together the conference: “I have had multiple people walk up to me and say that the speech/keynote you did was worth their price of entry – THANK YOU” I also had multiple people reach out and talk about working together and partnering with me. These people all gave me the feedback that the talk was the most engaging talk they have been to in a while. Jake’s framework is the best in the world. There is a reason why he is an award winning trainer and has trained over 10k people globally. His coaching and consulting is world class and worth more than what he charges.“

Before Jake the sales team we were just winging it and hoping our reps would do well. He provided order where there was none. Key Accomplishments that Jake had in my tenure with him: Built a training program from the ground up. Improved our turnaround time for training Account Executives and making them effective sellers in under 3 months. (It used to take us 6-9 months) Jake made a stark distinction in our transition to being confident in value based selling. He really helped us dig into customer problems/pains to make sure we could take great care of our clients. Whoever hires Jake is hiring an architect and a builder. An architect that cares deeply about sharing their passion with their teams to watch them grow better. A builder that lays every stone right where it belongs to make sure the structure is sounds. He can do this for your training needs, product agnostic

Jake is a true master of his craft, and would always bring his A-game when it comes to his style of training. While attending his courses, I would always come in with an open mind, and was curious on what he would bring to the table — and I can honestly say that there were some eye opening (“wow”) moments throughout his weekly sales training sessions. His style of training and development may be different from the standard. There’s reason why he’s been so successful at every stop of his career, and I truly believe that Jake has a gift that most developing trainers can’t seem to grasp (imo). On a personal note, I think Jake is fantastic person. He is always looking out for his teammates (on a professional and personal level). If your business is looking to boost their performance in sales, customer services, management etc. – then Jake Stahl is your guy!

Sales Consultant
I absorbed so much from Jake’s training. He developed an intense, informative, yet lively training course for new hires that kept me engaged and feeling thoroughly prepared to start my new role when I joined the company. He went on to develop weekly sales training meetings, which I fully benefited from, as it was packed with gems that would end up helping me with my future sales skills. On top of being an expert in sales and training, his upbeat and positive nature made it hard to not look forward to the next meeting. He also had an open door policy when it came to slacking him and asking questions or requesting time to train one on one. He was a great resource during my time at Sana! I highly recommend Jake, and whoever gets to work with him is in for a great time!

Inside Sales
Jake is a master of training and development. I worked with Jake to get our sales team up and running much faster than they were before Jake took the helm, which directly impacted the bottom line. He’s an excellent communicator and thought deeply about incentives and how to get the most out of the team. He’s also just a pleasure to collaborate with when building out entire training programs, individual sessions, and take-away assets.Without hesitation, I recommend Jake if you need to uplevel your training or L&D.

Jake’s ability to impart NLP techniques and effective communication strategies is akin to a benevolent Jedi mind trick. If NLP is the art of influencing with integrity, then Jake is undoubtedly the Obi-Wan Kenobi of this realm. His guidance and techniques have significantly improved our sales outcomes, and I wholeheartedly recommend Jake to anyone looking to elevate their team’s communication and influence skills.

Jake’s ability to provide insight into both industry and the human condition provided me with the tools needed for success in an environment still new to me. He has been able to coach on a case-by-case instance, providing you with the best ideas and the thought process that gets you there. His dedication and professionalism are unrivaled and should be what every company is looking for in this role. I would recommend Jake as an asset for organizational development in any environment!

Account Executive
Jake Stahl isn’t just another trainer or business development consultant—he’s a true innovator in his field. His consulting approach, and now his groundbreaking product Orchestraight (launched in December 2024), redefines how businesses achieve growth by leveraging the science of human behavior. Jake’s work isn’t about scripts or chasing a single close out of 25 leads. Instead, he operates at the cutting edge of behavioral psychology, decision-making science, and social psychology—delving into how people think, decide, and act. He combines these insights with Neuro-Linguistic Programming to teach strategies that feel authentic and deliver unparalleled results. Jake is the real deal and an all -around good guy!
Beau Billington
CEO The Free Agent
As an entrepreneur with an AI background, I love sales and marketing, but felt little control over the process. Sometimes it would work and I was surprised and daunted either way. I sought a scalable repeatable process because as a data-driven product manager, I want to optimize my time, qualify leads, know what to say, and how to follow up. Jake is an empathetic and humble sales coach who helped me do mock sales calls. Just like mock product management interviews, he made me feel comfortable and like an equal, but without the usual salesman ego and antics. By breaking down the confidence game, and listening to prospects and clients, I was able to sell the things clients wanted to buy. Jake helped me use my strengths in user empathy research and letting the client do the talking. Jake helped me sell my AI and podcast strategies.

AI Marketing Director
Jake is perhaps the most passionate individual I’ve ever met when it comes to learning, training, development, and professional growth. He’s clearly honed his craft over decades and he brings that experience to bear with his day-to-day work life. At Sana, he developed a world-class onboarding program with multiple tracks and dozens of sessions involving cross-functional teams that consistently achieved high satisfaction scores. Jake also implemented a content management system to organize our training and marketing material, introduced gamification, and created close partnerships with key teams here at Sana to further professional development across our organization. His training programs are truly the best and I highly recommend him for any training and development position or project.
