I’m happy to recommend my friend and colleague, Patrick Tinney. I’ve known Patrick for over a year, and he quickly became both a great friend and a valuable colleague.

Patrick is one of the best sales professionals and authors I’ve ever met. His knowledge and skills in sales are top-notch, and he has a unique talent for making complex ideas easy to understand. His books are a clear sign of his expertise and his passion for sharing what he knows.

What really stands out about Patrick is his willingness to help others. He’s always ready to offer advice and support to different organizations. His dedication to mentoring and advising others is truly impressive, and many have benefited from his guidance.

Patrick's mix of professional skill, dedication to mentoring, and genuine friendship make him an outstanding person and a great addition to any team. I’m grateful to work with him and look forward to more years of collaboration.

Patrick Tinney is one of the best sales trainers I have worked with. Pat applies real-life examples to his coaching style. Pat has excellent negotiation and prospecting skills. He is the kind of coach who would never tell his clients to do something he wouldn't do. Pat is a great mentor and has helped me so much throughout my career. I would recommend Pat to anyone looking to take their game to the next level.

I Touched 45 businesses today – physically – setting 2 appointments today. 1 of them I persuaded to meet with me on the spot. I left with a rough plan on how to bring value and will have a formal proposal to them by the end of the week… 3-5 % set rate is a general goal for an inside sales appointment setter making 100 – 150 dials a day chained to a cubicle desk. Today was a 4.5% set rate WITH conducting an actual sales appointment on the same day! Hard to do that from a cubicle.

The most important attribute in sales is that you just need to have the HUNGER. All the skills, scripts and marketing tools are pointless without it. HUNGER to acquire new business and most importantly HUNGER to help people improve their future state…, strengthening this mindset is the theme of Pat’s book, PERPETUAL HUNGER and how to put that into practice is just part of what I learned in the Centroid Sales Mastery Class.

"Building Trust With Whale Sized Clients." - Pat, slowly beginning your course (not sure if that's the proper terminology) - I like the titles of the yellow post-it notes. Today, I watched this video. You have an excellent conversational delivery, and I appreciate your personal story shares. Excited for more. Insert: one woman standing ovation.

What is a Sales Gorilla? Why would you want one?

Sales Gorilla differentiates itself by focusing specifically on sales negotiation—a piece of the sales process that Patrick Tinney argues is the least understood and most ego-driven.

While prospecting and consultative selling receive a lot of attention, negotiation is often neglected despite being critical to closing deals. Patrick flipped this perspective, making negotiation the centerpiece of his platform.

Unlike others who talk only about "theory", Patrick draws from a “deal book” of nearly $400 million in negotiations.

 

He emphasizes practical experience, including handling extreme buyer tactics and renegotiating contracts under tough conditions.

 

The website compiles this knowledge into short, actionable videos, making it a unique "library" for real-world salespeople.

Pat Tinney is a genius. Specifically, a genius in negotiation. Sales-Gorilla is the culmination of over 40 years of working at the coal face, research, and testing. Add to that his four highly acclaimed books on the subject and you can see where I am coming from!

I would go so far as to say it’s the single largest repository of business negotiation support that exists – full stop. And it’s not data, it’s not information, it’s wisdom.

A vast library, full of insight, easy to access and built in light, bite-sized video chunks. Do what I did. Think of a particular challenge you have with negotiating. Ask Sales-Gorilla and see what happens. I tried three specific aspects and got great advice on each of them!

Unique and highly recommended…
