is Silently Killing Sales Performance in Promo

12:30 pm
Featured Speaker: Sam Kabert, Soul Life Mindset

The promo world moves fast—tight turnarounds, demanding clients, and constant multitasking are just part of the job. This session skips the obvious and goes straight to solutions: how to rebuild the clarity, energy, and emotional capacity that nonstop hustle has drained. Instead of talking about “stress,” we’ll focus on practical tools that help sales professionals immediately regain focus, follow-through, and momentum.

Drawing from both Sam's years inside the promotional products industry and his work in Emotional Fitness, Sam will teach simple, science-backed resets that restore mental bandwidth in real time. Attendees will learn how to stabilize their nervous system during high-pressure days, strengthen resilience, and create a performance rhythm that boosts creativity, client experience, and sales results—without working more hours.

Key Takeaways / Learning Outcomes: 

• Use fast, practical Emotional Fitness tools to reset clarity and energy during busy sales cycles. 
• Rebuild cognitive and emotional capacity so follow-through, creativity, and decision-making stay sharp. 
• Strengthen resilience with techniques that prevent overwhelm from piling up.
