Helping Organizations That Serve Educators Sell Outcomes Instead of Products

Revenue enablement for EdTech, professional development, curriculum, and education service companies ($2M-$30M, 2+ salespeople).

No pitch. Just clarity on what’s holding your sales team back.

Great Products. Frustrating Sales Conversations.

Most organizations that serve educators struggle with the same things:

  • Reps jump into demos before understanding real needs
  • Conversations focus on features instead of student and outcomes
  • Prospecting feels pushy or inconsistent
  • Deals stall late in district approval processes

The result?
Long cycles, unpredictable pipeline, and teams that care deeply about educators but don’t know how to translate impact into revenue.
Schools don’t need better pitches.
They need better partners.

You Don’t Need Another Trainer.
You Need a Guide Who Understands Educators.

Hi, I’m Chris Layton.

I help organizations that serve educators turn sales teams into trusted partners.

  • Helped scale education revenue from $18M → $32M in two years
  • Led the first multi-million dollar district contracts
  • Coached new reps to $500K-$1M+ in year one
  • 18+ years serving schools and the people who support them

I speak both languages:
educator impact + revenue reality.
