While studying for his undergraduate degree at Harvard, Marc suddenly lost all his college savings in a stock market crash. Compelled to have to help pay for college, Marc started a small marketing company. Little did he know, he was about to embark on a journey filled with challenges. He would soon learn just how hard it was to have to sell in order to survive.
By using the right techniques, Marc created exponential growth for his marketing business, turning it into one of the fastest growing event marketing companies in New England. The expanding client list soon included corporations such as Subway Sandwich Shops, ExxonMobil and Getty Oil. As his company grew, Marc served as captain of Harvard's rugby team and was selected as an All-American rugby player. These experiences as a top athlete further shaped his sales philosophy, as he discovered many similarities between closing the sale and winning on the field. After selling his business at just 23 years old, Marc began teaching sales to organizations both large and small.
Today, Marc Wayshak is known as America's Sales Strategist. He shares the powerful strategies and techniques of the Game Plan Selling System through writing, training and coaching. Marc travels the world helping organizations and entrepreneurs transform their sales.
