It's a shame.
"It's a shame that brilliant educators and education entrepreneurs — people with real expertise that could genuinely transform student outcomes — are stuck sending cold emails that disappear into the void..."
...While vendors with half your experience walk into the same schools and walk out with signed contracts.
Here's what nobody tells you about selling to schools:
The gatekeepers aren't trying to keep you out.
They're protecting administrators from the avalanche of salespeople who've burned them before.
And here's the devastating truth: You're being judged by everyone who came before you.
Every pushy sales rep. Every overpromising consultant. Every vendor who ghosted after getting paid.That's who they see when your email hits their inbox.
But what if I told you there's a way to flip this entire dynamic?
A way to have schools reaching out to you...
A way to build relationships so authentic that contracts feel like the natural next step...
A way to create sustainable revenue — not from aggressive sales tactics — but from genuine service.
The Reality of Selling to Schools
Access Barriers
"I can't get through to the right people." You are fighting bureaucracy and gatekeepers just to get a meeting.
Time Investment
"I'm spending months with no results." Long sales cycles are draining your energy and your resources.
Rejection Sensitivity
"I keep getting ignored." Rejection and silence can make you feel like an outsider, causing doubt in your mission.
Revenue Uncertainty
"I can't predict when I'll get paid." The unpredictability of contracts makes it hard to plan your growth.
The Solution: The "Taste Test" Strategy
Imagine walking through a mall food court. The businesses that succeed aren't the ones shouting the loudest—they are the ones offering a sample.
In education, your "Taste Test" is a low-friction, high-value offering that allows a school to experience your expertise without a massive bureaucratic commitment. We help you package your expertise into a "book" or similar asset that builds trust immediately.
I Know What It's Like...
I know what it's like to feel invisible. To craft what you think is the perfect email... wait three days... then watch your hopes deflate when your inbox stays empty.
I know the frustration of 6-month sales cycles that drain your savings while you wait... and wait... and wait for a decision that may never come.
Because I've watched hundreds of education entrepreneurs go through this exact cycle.
And after 15+ years navigating the NYC school system from the inside — watching decisions get made, budgets get allocated, and vendors get chosen — I finally understand why.
"The problem isn't your expertise. The problem isn't even your pitch. The problem is the entire approach."
The Discovery
How I Cracked the Code
The "Taste Test Strategy" Explained
Vendors who get contracts aren't the best salespeople.
For years, I watched vendors pitch to our schools. Same presentations. Same promises. Same desperate follow-up calls.
But the winners? They showed up differently. They volunteered. They offered free workshops. They served their way in.
That's when it hit me:
"What if the secret to selling to schools... is to stop selling altogether?"

The Food Court Analogy
Imagine you're walking through a mall food court. Dozens of restaurants competing for your attention. Signs screaming. Staff hawking menus.
Which businesses actually get your money?
Not the ones shouting the loudest. The ones offering a sample. One bite of orange chicken... and suddenly you're ordering the full combo with extra rice.
This is the psychology that changes everything in education sales.
Instead of pitching a $10,000 package → You offer a 45-minute workshop that delivers instant value.
When you lead with service, sales become unnecessary.

Why Educators & Schools Listen To Me
Fair question. Here's what makes this different from generic "B2B sales" advice:
1
I'm Not an Outside Sales Trainer — I'm a Former School Educator
15+ years navigating the NYC school system as an educator. I didn't learn how schools buy from a textbook. I learned it by doing the work, seeing budget conversations, vendor selection, and principal priorities up close.
2
I've Personally Used This System To Build 6-Figure Partnerships With Schools
This isn't theory. These are the exact strategies I used to build real partnerships worth six figures with schools and districts.
3
My Philosophy Is Different: "Service Before Sales"
Most sales training teaches you to "close hard." In education, that approach loses deals. My method is about showing up, building trust, and creating partnerships where schools want to work with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
"I'm just starting out. Is this for beginners?"
Yes — and honestly, it's BETTER if you start here. The Show-Up Method prevents you from wasting years trying to 'sell' the wrong way. We give you the foundation to build your education business correctly from day one. No bad habits to unlearn.
"Do I need to have a finished course or curriculum?"
No. This is a 'front-end' offer strategy. The goal is to get your foot in the door. We teach you how to sell the 'sample' (the Taste Test) before you ever need to deliver a massive curriculum. You can build your bigger offerings as you grow.
"Is this a subscription?"
No. This is a one-time payment of $27. You get lifetime access to the Guide and the Masterclass. No hidden fees. No recurring charges.
"How is this different from other sales training?"
Most sales training is aggressive. In the education and non-profit space, aggression loses deals. This method is about 'Showing Up' and building partnerships. It's designed specifically for the psychology of schools and community organizations — not used car lots.
"What if I've been rejected by schools before?"
Perfect. Those rejections weren't about you — they were about your approach. The Show-Up Method gives you a completely different framework. Schools that ignored your cold emails will welcome your Taste Test offer because it leads with value, not asks.
"Can I really make $50K-$150K selling to schools?"
Yes — but it takes time. This isn’t overnight riches. Education sales cycles are often 6–12 months. For many folks who are not contracted vendors, especially in NYC, deals may look more like $24,000–$25,000 or less per school to start, and each district will be a little different.
