Real talk: some of these hit a little too close to home. 😅
If you recognized yourself (or your team) in any of these, that's not a bad thing. It just means there's room to grow. That's exactly what we're here for.

Sales Boot Camp: Closing the Deal is back this September, and we're covering all of it. Sales science, sales psychology, the art of the pitch, in-person selling, digital sales, and how to actually close. One day. Real strategies. Zero fluff.

We made the news! 📺
The Middle Six® is among the first firms in the country to earn HubSpot's Construction Industry Specialist Badge, and CBS 58 invited Lisa to talk about what that means.

This badge isn't a test you pass. It's proof of work. It recognizes real expertise in the unique sales environment construction and AEC companies live in every day — complex stakeholder relationships, long sales cycles, and decisions built on trust.

If your construction or AEC firm is ready to modernize its sales process, this is exactly what we do.

Not everyone who generates revenue has "salesperson" in their title.
Architects. Designers. Engineers. Consultants. If you're expected to bring in business, you're in sales, whether you signed up for it or not.

We just wrapped a Sales Boot Camp in Indianapolis for the market leaders at RATIO Architects. These are talented people who had never been handed a sales roadmap. By the end, they were closing — and more importantly, they felt good about it.

AI isn't replacing salespeople. It's separating good ones from great ones.

The best reps we know aren't using AI to cut corners. They're using it to show up more prepared, more focused, and more human in every conversation.
Better research before discovery calls. Smarter note-taking during them. Faster, sharper follow-up after.

Sales is still 50% art. But the science side just got a serious upgrade.

💼 It's National Leave the Office Early Day. And we have thoughts.

Most salespeople can't leave early because they're buried. Chasing down notes from their last call. Trying to remember where that deal is in the pipeline. Rebuilding a proposal from scratch because nothing is documented.

That's not a hustle problem. That's a process problem.

When your sales process is set up right — the right tools, the right system, the right roadmap — you actually get your time back.

So today, we hope you get out early. And if you can't? Let's talk: https://hubs.li/Q04jQcth0

If your pipeline feels unpredictable, it’s probably not a lead problem.

It’s a process problem.

Here are 3 patterns we see all the time:

❌ No clearly defined sales process
❌ Inconsistent follow-up
❌ No visibility into what’s actually working

The result?
Feast or famine.

At The Middle Six, we always start in the same place:
Create the funnel → Fill the funnel → Sustain the funnel

Because consistency in sales isn’t luck—it’s built.

We had an incredible time leading a Sales Boot Camp with the team at
RATIO Architects diving into sales psychology, communication, networking, storytelling, and of course… a little healthy competition during the FAB challenge (Features, Advantages, Benefits).

Because great sales training is not about memorizing scripts. It’s about helping people communicate value more clearly and confidently.

One of our favorite parts of these workshops is watching teams connect the dots in real time and realize that sales is not a dirty word… it’s problem-solving. 💥

Most pipelines don’t break overnight…
they just get messy.

Equity Supply Group, LLC needed a more organized process. That's where we came in.

The problem 👇
Leads tracked across whiteboards, spreadsheets, and paper = no consistency, no visibility.

The solution 👇
✔ Centralized everything in HubSpot
✔ Mapped the sales process
✔ Built tools + sequences for consistent follow-up

The result 👇
• 2–4x more meetings per month
• Clear, trackable pipeline
• Faster, more reliable follow-up

From reactive → predictable.

Now THIS is our kind of event. ❤️

A room full of people talking sales strategy, relationship-building, leadership, and growth? Say less.

We had an amazing time at MMAC's For the Love of Sales event, connecting with sales professionals who are passionate about doing sales differently, with curiosity, confidence, and a people-first mindset.

Thanks to everyone who chatted with us, shared stories, and brought the energy all day long.
