About Carole Mahoney
Carole Mahoney’s journey is a story of remarkable change. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, she once dreaded sales. However, after learning how to shift her mindset, Carole transformed from a struggling salesperson to a highly respected sales coach...
…Growing up, Carole learned that business success depends on the buyer’s experience. When she entered the sales world, she initially made the same mistakes many sales professionals do: focusing too much on herself and struggling to connect with buyers. Instead of giving up, Carole redefined her approach and turned her marketing agency into a thriving sales coaching business. Today, she helps small business owners and sales professionals improve their success by offering insights as an author, keynote speaker, and trusted sales mentor.
Carole realized that the “me first” mentality was holding back sales professionals and damaging their relationships with buyers. Through data and scientific research, she has shown that adopting a “Not About Me” approach is essential for achieving both strong sales performance and industry integrity.
Carole authored the upcoming book Buyer First and earned the nickname “Sales Therapist” from a Harvard Business School professor. She coaches in the Entrepreneurial MBA program at Harvard and serves as the President of the AA-ISP Boston Chapter. Carole has also been recognized as a top sales influencer by LinkedIn and Sales Hacker, and she was voted a top sales coach by Ambition.
As the founder of Unbound Growth, Carole uses data from over 2.2 million sales professionals to identify the traits of great sellers and leaders. By combining this data with behavioral research, Carole helps sales and business leaders make smarter decisions.
Carole’s science-backed process eliminates the guesswork in hiring, cutting hiring time and costs in half. Her coaching programs have helped salespeople and managers achieve 130-160% of their sales quotas in less than six months, with a 98% annual customer retention rate.
Carole is passionate about helping small businesses thrive and providing sales professionals with the tools they need to succeed. Her coaching empowers individuals to unlock their potential and achieve lasting success in their careers and businesses.
