BIO
Knebl was originally a professional pianist in the New York area back when the earth was cooling. After marrying way above his pay grade and realizing that while playing piano is a great gig for a single guy, it’s not the best job for a married guy, he transitioned into a sales career. He had a sales manager who recommended that he study people and relational skills instead of ninja closing lines and within three years he was the top salesperson worldwide for an international consulting company with over 300 salespeople and offices in 11 countries. He continued to build a successful sales career as a top-producer for Fortune 1000 and Fortune 500 companies.
He was selling to CEO’s and one day a CEO asked if Kevin would train his salespeople the same “disarmingly honest” approach that Kevin had used with him. That led to Kevin starting his international speaking and training business and assisting companies in growing their revenues through building and sustaining mutually beneficial win-win relationships both on and offline.
Kevin is often called “The Relationship Guy”, and sometimes “Obi-Wan Knebl”. He teaches the art of online and offline relationship building in both business and social contexts. All things being equal, people do business with and refer business to people they like, know and trust. Kevin teaches how to accelerate your “like, know, trust factor”. He also has a twisted sense of humor and a face for radio.
