About Us

Jill Harrington
Up close and personal

There are two things you should know about me.
I am a career sales person.
And I care deeply about people’s success.

I am passionate about the profession of selling. It is the backbone of business. And I am frustrated by the number of talented sales professionals and sales organizations that settle for mediocre results because they’ve failed to shift their approach.
Jill Harrington, Sales Trainer

I fell into a sales career when I arrived in North America, from the UK, with an impressive marketing background that was of little use on a different continent. When I was offered a position in sales I jumped. I was clueless when I started but hard work, coupled with continuous learning, provided me an extraordinary sales career that eventually led to the executive suite.

In addition to my family I love two things. Learning and travel. They kind of go hand in hand. I always learn something new when I travel. And when I’m learning, my mind travels. I’ve lived in three countries on two continents and I invest an extraordinary amount of time and money in reading, watching, and studying with other sales and business experts. My worst nightmare is to become a dinosaur. The planet is already littered with them.

What else?

  • I’m passionate about the success of my clients.
  • I am determined that you see big outcomes.
  • I’ll guarantee our work – which means no risk to you.
  • I’m fun. Don’t let the professional façade fool you!
  • I’m a straight shooter. I say what I mean and I mean what I say.
  • I provide tough love to those who need it and can take it.
  • And I have a talent for nurturing the new sales kids on the block.

Someone once told me that my secret sauce is “competence and confidence.” That’s what I give to everyone who comes to SalesSHIFT

I believe so much in the work we are doing, particularly in the current world economy, that I’d do it for free if ICouples getaway could.

But I won’t. Because we bring way too much value. And because, quite frankly, I’m saving to one day live right here….

“Jill is brilliant, funny and she gave me tools that will improve my relationships with my clients… I am confident that I will succeed!”
