about #Proud2Sell

Welcome to Proud2Sell.net, the official home of the #Proud2Sell movement, founded by Craig Portis, MBA. Our mission is to transform the sales industry by promoting ethical selling, professionalism, and a customer-centric approach. We believe that sales can and should be a respected profession, and that starts with the mindset of the salespeople themselves.

Our journey began with the publication of Craig's groundbreaking book, "#Proud2Sell: The Biggest Sales Mindset Shift in Generations," which focuses on overcoming the negative stereotypes associated with sales and embracing a positive, consultative approach to selling. At #Proud2Sell, we recognize the vital role sales play in driving the global economy and aim to elevate the profession by providing education, resources, and community support for sales professionals committed to excellence.

On Proud2Sell.net, you'll find not only our bestselling book but also a wealth of resources, including blog posts, podcasts, training courses, and more – all dedicated to helping you become the best sales professional you can be. Our content covers topics such as sales ethics, effective sales strategies, relationship selling, sales psychology, and building trust in sales.

As the #Proud2Sell community grows, we will continue to share success stories, insights, and valuable advice from industry leaders and top-performing sales professionals. Our goal is to create an inclusive and supportive space where salespeople can learn, grow, and thrive together.

Join us on our mission to revolutionize the sales industry and redefine what it means to be a sales professional. Let's work together to make the world #Proud2Sell.

our goals

My goal with this book is to provide a fundamental mindset shift to sales pros who’ve been in the business long term but are still struggling with feeling imposter syndrome because of the false negative stigma associated with sales. Additionally, this is for new salespeople who are just getting into sales or considering it, and want to understand why some segments of society still view sales and sales activities like cold calling with a negative or distasteful opinion.
