Paul Reilly
Paul Reilly is a professional speaker, sales trainer, and author. He coauthored Value-Added Selling, fourth edition (McGraw-Hill, 2018), and authored Selling Through Tough Times (Fall 2021). Reilly also hosts The Q and A Sales Podcast, where he answers the most pressing questions facing today’s sales professionals.
Reilly is a long-time faculty member at the University of Innovative Distribution (UID). In 2020, Reilly earned his CSP (Certified Speaking Professional) designation. Fewer than 18 percent of professional speakers have earned this designation. Reilly travels the globe sharing his content-rich message of hope.
With over fifteen years of B2B selling experience, Reilly is a salesperson at heart. He cut his teeth in the commoditized propane industry—a notoriously price-sensitive and competitive market. He also sold tools and fasteners for the Hilti organization. Paul qualified for the Hilti Master’s Club in 2010 and in 2011 was inducted into Hilti’s Three-million-dollar Sales Club.
Paul attributes his success to his belief in the Value-Added message.
