Mark Allen Roberts, B2B Sales Consultant

B2B SALES CONSULTANT · MANUFACTURER & REVENUE LEADER SPECIALIST

I’m Mark Allen Roberts and I Fix Sales Problems.

For over 40 years, I have helped companies from $4M to $300M fix their broken sales processes and achieve profitable growth.

What does “No Smoke and Mirrors” actually mean? It means I tell you what is wrong, not what you want to hear. No recycled frameworks dressed up as strategy. Just an honest diagnosis and a real plan.

What I Refuse to Do

I do not sell you a program and disappear. I do not give you a slide deck and call it a strategy. I diagnose the real problem, tell you the truth about it, and build a plan that actually changes the numbers.

Three Ways I Fix Your Sales Problem

Every engagement starts with a diagnosis. I do not prescribe until I know what is actually wrong.

01
If your team is busy but not closing

Your Team Starts Winning the Business in Front of Them

Most quota problems are not effort problems. They are skills and process problems. I find the exact gap and fix it with targeted coaching, a formal sales process, and the accountability structure to make it stick.

02
If your pipeline is full but your revenue is not

Your Forecast Becomes Something You Can Actually Trust

A pipeline full of stuck deals is not a pipeline. It is a wish list. I build the process, the inspection cadence, and the rep skills that turn a guessing game into a reliable number.

03
If your team is giving away margin to close

Your Team Stops Leaving Money on the Table

Discounting is a habit, not a necessity. I fix the negotiation and closing skills that drive profit leakage and build the pricing confidence your team needs to hold their number and win.

About Mark

I Have Been in the Room. I Know What Is Actually Broken.

Timken Gardner Denver Frito-Lay Mobility Works VMI

I have spent more than 35 years leading sales teams, carrying quota, and working directly with customers in some of the most demanding manufacturing environments. My approach starts with an honest diagnosis, not a prepackaged solution. I ask the right questions, uncover the real problem, and then recommend the fix. That is what No Smoke and Mirrors means in practice. Watch the video to see how I work.
