"The HCC Mattress Mack School of Selling© taught me that we are ALL in sales! Even if we never majored in sales or thought that the role we play in our business is sales, we all are in sales. Even if we are just trying to get a Toddler to eat their vegetables… we are in sales!"
Patty Sobelman, Head of School, Pines Montessori School

The Biggest Take-Aways for Patty: "Knowing your product or service and understanding the needs of your customer makes sales a win-win. We are connecting a person who has a need, to a product or service that is a help to them. You listen, meet the need, get the sale and they are happy. The School of Selling helped me overcome my fear of the “sales pitch” and made me lean into “problem solving pitch” that my business alone can solve!"

“There’s always something to learn and I thoroughly enjoyed learning the transferable skills of active selling, identifying buying triggers, and the art of saying “no” at the Mattress Mack School of Selling. Typically, I’m facilitating business programs but it was nice to be the student and learn from our HCC partners as they facilitated some really informative sessions with immediate tools for application. I have to admit, each class I couldn’t wait to hear what Mattress Mack had to say; his advice is priceless.”
