At Sandler, we pride ourselves in practicing what we preach and living the core values defined by our founder, David Sandler, which have led to 50+ years of success for us and our worldwide list of clients.
In 1967, David Sandler realized that the traditional sales model was broken. Feature and benefit selling, discounting, and high-pressure tactics had led to a downward spiral, and salespeople were one of the most hated professions with lawyers and politicians. They deserved better. Prospects deserved better. And, he set out to design a better methodology, based on behavioral psychology that worked for both parties.

David Sandler was a true visionary, focused on creating a substantive change and lasting success for our clients. His final breakthrough came when he discovered that awareness of these new philosophies was not enough to create positive results and ROI. He wrote the best-selling book, You Can’t Teach a Kid to Ride a Bike at a Seminar, because he found that:

You MUST apply and practice your new skills to see results!
Lasting results and permanent change come from long-term reinforcement.
