Beginning in the field of computer science, Ray Leone was employed by The Atomic Energy Commission at Princeton University and later as program manager for Virginia Commonwealth University, RCA and UNISYS. Ray left that field to enter sales, becoming the top producer for two International corporations. Ray combined his scientific background with practical field experience to develop his trademark selling program, the SALES FUNNEL®. Ray’s system is taught on five continents through licensees as well as Ray himself. Thousands of salesmasters around the world have been “FUNNELED”. He was cited by Selling Power Live as an icon of sales. Target Training International honored Ray with its Presidents Award for his contributions to human development. Corporations that have retained Ray as a consultant have had amazing results. Kurt Kimball, Chairman, World Sales Council, Compass Group said “Our closing average has increased from 14.6% to 72% since we implemented Ray’s system. Signing him to an exclusive contract in our industry is one of the best moves I’ve ever made.” Ray is the author of SUCCESS SECRETS OF THE SALES FUNNEL®. He is a 25 year member of The National Speakers Association and is past president of NSA/Carolinas. As a businessman, Ray is President of The Leone Resource Group and SSS Publishing. He is a sought after international speaker and consultant to Fortune 500 companies as well as small business owners.
