Testimonials

What an amazing UVIVE® workshop! Learning the science behind behavior….taking time to understand the stress and its impact in both our work and professional life and how to take control over our responses to what life throws at us. Make your own sunshine!

"Having completed my second training program with Matrix Achievement Group, I can say with the utmost confidence that this is a must for anyone in sales, regardless of experience. I am new to the sales world but seeing how effortlessly the facilitator communicates to all experience levels, I truly believe literally everyone can get something out of his sessions and the educational series overall. The information in both courses flowed perfectly together and hit on so many aspects of my position. My facilitator is genuinely engaging, and his energy levels give you confidence in a way that makes you want to communicate and participate, which ultimately makes the experience fun and the time flies by. Am so impressed with his ability to listen, process, analyze and then appropriately respond in a way that is easy to understand, relate to and, more importantly, recall later. I use the course material often and he is extremely accessible outside of the leave-behind materials. I feel like my highest recommendation of the Matrix team is selling them short, but my experience has been exceptionally positive and I know others would benefit in a similar way.” 

Yesterday's session with Matrix was awesome; it was one of the most beneficial training days I've had in my career. To dig deep into the psychology of selling and learn about simple tricks to gain an advantage in negotiations was very beneficial. It opened my eyes to new strategies to give me an advantage in the field. 

One of the biggest takeaways I had was how to ask the right questions, when to ask them, and who to ask. Too many reps in our industry give concessions or discounts very easily and there is a lot of money left on the table. The way Todd challenged us to think about different scenarios and made us comfortable asking difficult questions is something we can apply in our job every day.

I would definitely sign up for another course with Matrix to continue to learn and grow my sales acumen. Our facilitator was very engaging, strategic, and challenging. 

The "Management Without Authority" course was excellent and was a valuable use of my time. The content was pertinent to my business today and provided useful tools that will help my professional development.

The Matrix facilitator is engaging, commands an audience, and drives learning. The mix of instruction, stories and activities helps attendees hone in on their management skills! Highly Recommend!!!

"Your facilitator's thoughtfulness in word choice / talk-tracks show the level of dedication to the craft of sales. His ability to connect with the audience as a true med device professional shows his authenticity and credibility to his approach."

It’s a must for anyone in sales and TRULY one if not the best one I have ever attended. Thanks again for offering this to us! I would love to take this every year to build upon, and continually refresh my brain and sales tactics to use these skills.

Matrix provides a solid framework to approach sales and to close deals effectively and efficiently.

The Matrix facilitator is an amazing coach, facilitator, and motivator. Thank you for a great 2-day course on becoming an effective leader.

Loved the program very helpful.  Invigorating not only professionally but personally.

Outstanding training for both field sales, leadership and training teams alike with real-world application delivered by a top talent speaker.

The Matrix facilitator really had a way to draw you in and energize the room. I've been to these sorts of training before and if it's not relatable or personable you lose me quickly. The facilitator and his team had a way that really drew me in. Lots of key information I'm taking away from this. 

This was a great course! Very helpful and useful. Todd was amazing!

Overall, an excellent program. Very insightful with specific and practical applications. 

Matrix Achievement is the most comprehensive and scientific approach to sales and influencing customers that I have experienced in my 30 years of CRM. 

Outstanding course!! Your facilitator is an incredible wealth of knowledge and a captivating teacher. For the first time in my career, I actually found myself engaged and enjoyed sales training!

Today I am the only sales rep in the company of 275 reps that has made Presidents Club every year since my company started offering trips. In the end, nothing matters but performance. Thanks to Matrix for all of the pearls you have taught me over the years. 

This sales training course has been a fantastic experience. It has paved the way for me to have a successful future in sales. Highly recommend. 

The Matrix sales training was one of the best sales training I have ever had. I have been in the sales industry for over 10 years. I have never had training that did not focus on canned sales approaches. I particularly enjoyed the focus on how the human brain works. These are skills that can be applied at work and in everyday life. Having the understating of how to help my prospect recognize their real “pains” is an invaluable asset. I would like to thank you for your hands-on approach and keeping the training session very interactive. I would recommend this training for all companies with a sales team.

Your facilitator was genuinely interested in our success as sales professionals. He was careful to make sure we had an understanding of the current objective before moving on. I have been part of three sales training programs and this was, by far, the MOST EFFECTIVE!!

Todd did a tremendous job delivering well-researched, actionable, and relevant management training. He provided tools and

processes that I have implemented immediately and changed the way I approach my way of influencing/managing people on a daily

basis.

Regarding "The Best Seller ^TM": This is absolutely the best four hours for my career! Thank you! I understand there is much more available and I am hungry to experience this. 

I have attended many sales training programs and this was by far the best! Todd is passionate, informative and extremely knowledgeable of material. 

I have been in sales for over 20 years, as a rep and as a manager. I thought "what could this really teach me?" I was pleasantly surprised by all that I took away from it. The energy level the facilitator provided was contagious throughout. I highly recommend this at all levels of experience. 

Your facilitator is a great trainer! His interactive approach kept me engaged the entire time. Content of this course is very interesting and informative. 

I have been in sales for 30 years. Companies miss the opportunity in a huge way in developing their people for constant growth. This program gave me several pearls to add to my process that will help with my continued development and in return, my family and my organization will benefit from my personal growth. 

'Strategic Value: Selling to Executives' by Matrix Achievement does a fantastic job of explaining why healthcare is a complicated market that requires specific skill sets to navigate. Couple that with providing tools that improve your effectiveness inside a C-Suite environment, I highly recommend this program to other professionals. 

The Matrix organization and leadership provide courses and content that serve as the glue between the person, the action and the result. 

This was the most engaging sales training I've ever had. Time flew by!

Excellent! Definitely a different approach to the sales process and understanding the customer. 

I've been in the Med Device Business for 18 years and have taken numerous sales trainings. Matrix was the best, most useful training I have ever experienced. 

Todd Zaugg has a unique and creative way of reading his audience, connecting with them on a personal level that keeps us engaged and helps us grow to be our best self. 

You managed to captivate the entire team while delivering an impactful program that resonated...you were the authority in the room on everything, yet it felt like you were a team member in the trenches with us.

Just got finished with an incredible training with Matrix. I have worked for several large medical device companies and have never been so motivated, felt so prepared and had so much fun in sales training and with role-playing. Hoping there is an advanced course that I can take! Thanks!

In a time where continuing education is the first thing to go, Matrix couldn’t have come at a better time for me. Relevant, modern and delivered in a way which makes it entirely applicable in my day-to-day activities.

Thank you for two great days of Negotiation Training. After your class, I feel much more confident and less intimidated when walking into a negotiation - I have already had to negotiate twice this week! Thanks again for all your hard work to give us more “Courage.”

As a Sales Leader and Coach, it was an honor and tremendous opportunity to share my experience using MXSC. I believe in this tool because of the results we achieved and the way it helped me bring value to my people.

As a 5+ manager, I have used some of the techniques taught by Matrix. However, I never knew the why or science behind the techniques. This program brings everything together and fills in many of the holes or blind spots to maximize my time and get the most from my team. I’m excited to utilize those skills for the next few years.

Matrix Achievement is a master of the craft and your team will leave the training not only more motivated than before they entered... but with a higher skill level, which will stay with them long after the motivation has worn off. If I was still running my own sales team, I would have his company services as part of my development plan for all sales personnel.

Todd Zaugg, the principal of Matrix Achievement, is one of the most inspiring individuals I have had the fortune to work with in my career. He cares deeply about what he does and his unwavering focus for teamwork, relationships, and drive permeates every project Todd undertakes. Given the opportunity, I would not hesitate to work beside him in any endeavor as he has always been a trusted advisor.

As a new manager, I’m beyond impressed with the confidence this course instilled in me. I have a science backed framework and methodology that is easy in its application that will accelerate my success.

Matrix Achievement has captured the best ideas and techniques used in the sales profession and managed to translate them into easy to apply fundamentals. I have since added many of the logical principles to my sales toolbox.

For this to be my first sales training ever, this was a great sales course. This showed me insight into a whole new approach to selling. This has been a great foundation for my sales career. 

This is the most practical sales skills program I've ever taken and enjoyed!

This was incredible and life-changing for every aspect of my life. 

This program was excellent and the facilitator took me from hesitant to engaged very quickly.

It was comfortable, informative and constructive.

I have been in medical sales for almost 20 years. This is by far the most beneficial and helpful sales training program I have ever participated in!

By far the most comprehensive sales training that I have ever had the opportunity to participate in. Without question, the strategies learned will lead to better results and drive goal achievement. Your facilitator is captivating, and his enthusiasm is infectious.

What an amazing UVIVE® workshop:  Learning the science behind behavior….taking time to understand the stress and its impact in both our work and professional life and how to take control over our responses to what life throws at us.  Make your own sunshine! 

We invited Matrix Achievement to assist us in providing a comprehensive package of skill development for our senior sales and marketing team. The next day I saw our leadership team using the solutions to advance our business. I highly recommend Matrix Achievement.

The Matrix course on performance coaching has provided me valuable insight and tools to increase the performance of my team.

I would highly recommend Matrix Achievement to companies looking to grow revenue by improving the knowledge and skill set of their field sales organization.

I have been a "blue sheet" user, but this course and the Complex Sale worksheet take pre-call planning and account strategy to a whole other level."

I would highly recommend utilizing Matrix Achievement services for any professional who wants to maximize their potential in this results driven world we live in.

Your trainers are top notch! They are very engaging and they easily connect with the entire group. You have mastered the art of storytelling and this helps the class improve this skill set. 

We formally had a tendency to react and reduce pricing when a customer started asking for that 10% discount. After this course I approached my largest target again. The call went smoothly and I felt in control, confident and gained their immediate attention. No longer was I just a vendor to them, I was a true business partner.

Great content and applicable to relevant healthcare situation in the current market.

Matrix Achievement has given us an inside look at the behaviors, philosophies and tactics that make the difference in average and great sales performance... the best are always getting better.

If you’re not learning every day, then find a way, and Matrix Achievement provides the path.

Real world experiences that translate to real world expertise in attacking all levels of selling situations. In this economically challenged environment, it makes sense to arm your team with the as much information as possible and the appropriate strategies and tactics to get the deal won. Matrix Achievement can make that happen.

Great content validated some of my own best practices and added additional skills for me to take back to my team.

I have worked in the medical industry for 28 years. This program re-enforces and expands on every training program I have attended or have been part of in this industry. 

Matrix Achievement is able to quantify and label what many sales professionals do each day which allows the individual to further examine how he or she can build upon those skill sets to become a more effective sales professional.

I can't recommend Todd and his group highly enough. Our investment will have a very high ROI that will pay dividends today and for years to come.

I thought I was comfortable in my sales abilities. However, I was mistaken. I learned a ton! You opened my eyes on how to work with my team. Most importantly, how to develop and strategize with my reps in developing champions! Optimism is good but can be misleading! I can't wait to deliver the new tools to my team!

Excellent Learning Experience. Matrix provides an easy to understand and implement leadership program.

Your facilitator is awesome! His knowledge of the content he speaks on is best in class. Learned so much to put into practice.

The uptake and overall usage of the system has been first class. I highly recommend Matrix Achievement for any company looking to take their sales teams and management to the next level.

Todd had incredible energy and kept the entire day entertaining. 

Whether you are a new rep, a seasonal manager or distributor, this course will change the way you view your accounts, your sales strategy and will lead to increased sales and productivity.

Matrix's training is truly a fun and insightful way for you to learn how to drive results and sales. If you personally need to increase your numbers, help your team, and want to avoid another boring sales training session, then Matrix is your solution. 

I see the value in this course due to its real-world application of topics/situations that frequently occur in medical device sales. It is easy to stay engaged when the content directly relates to improving your business practices.

A no-nonsense, comprehensive, yet practical sales development training seminar that emphasizes the psychological understanding of the buying customer with a proven tactical sales process to create value for the customer, your company, and your sales professionals. By emphasizing preparation techniques before the sale coupled with the ability to execute the

above processes, the average salesperson can become above average and the above-average salesperson can easily become a Rock Star! Recommended with unbridled enthusiasm!

I found the content exceptionally useful. It has changed my thought processes toward negotiation.

This was one of the best sales courses I have taken in 16 years of pharma and med device sales! There is so much value that comes out of having this refresher. I can only imagine that the cost in the form of lost sales and missed opportunities is immense in relation to the price of the course. 

Wonderful sharing...great program.

Amazing! The best course I have ever had! I was in the 20% that didn't want to be here, but your trainer moved me into the other 80% who were excited to be in attendance. 

Sales 300 has transformed by my view on my customer's personality traits and what influences their decision making. I feel better equipped to build strong and lasting relationships with current and potential customers moving forward. 

This course is a great way for someone who is wanting to boost their selling career. The facilitator has brought new insights to the sales technique that is normally overlooked. Looking forward to putting this information into use. 

The facilitator was perfect for our course due to his extensive background in spine, and his wide array of professional experiences. He did an excellent job engaging the entire group and articulating the concepts in the Matrix program. 

I've done multiple, formal sales training seminars. Without a doubt, your facilitator and his program was the most engaging and impactful class/course I have been a part of. It has reinvigorated my desire to excel in the sales process and crush it. 

The best training instructor ever. He inspired and motivated an entire class. 

I've never held an outside sales role before. After this course, I feel prepared to crush my goals and take my career to the next level. Thank you!

I loved the course and your facilitator was phenomenal! I can't wait to use my sharpened skills to grow as a sales consultant in the medical device industry.

Wow...What a fun 2 days with our facilitator from Matrix! Haven't seen the technique of calling out random names to keep them alive since my college days in a 150+ classroom. Our facilitator was a joy to listen to...his energy is similar to mine and I dig it!

I wanted to thank you for the wonderful facilitation last week. You brought great energy to a challenging environment (Virtual), that takes a special kind of energy and I really enjoyed the content. Thanks!
