Spire Selling Combats Economic Uncertainty with its Game-Changing Sales Training
- Online platform and companion book equip 3 million sales professionals to thrive through chaos, complexity and upheaval -
LOS ANGELES, Calif., May 15, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — In times of economic turbulence, shifting markets and rising global tariffs, traditional sales methods are faltering. That's why Spire Selling ( spireselling.com ) has launched a career development program in addition to a new book – 'Cheating Death' (ISBN: 978-1069339287) by CEO and 35+ year sales veteran, Robert Herbst.
As a global leader in B2B salesforce development, Spire Selling is excited to unveil a career development program which offers self-paced selling courses. Its ground-breaking online training is designed to future-proof the careers of B2B sales professionals.
Through 60 self-paced modules across five courses, the curriculum equips learners to embrace chaos as opportunity, outpace AI disruption and transform complex client needs into lasting solutions. Practical frameworks and real-world exercises teach salespeople how to innovate, drive their careers and organizations forward and create extraordinary value – no matter what the market throws at them.
'Sales is the most honest place you can be,' Robert Herbst, sales veteran and CEO, Spire Selling, says. 'It's not about closing deals; it's about being curious enough to truly understand what's broken, straightforward enough to say it out loud and bold enough to help fix it. Salespeople who master this are not just surviving today's chaos, they're thriving.'
Backed by more than 35 years of experience training thousands of professionals, Herbst's effective sales approach reframes selling from outdated pressure tactics to deep client problem-solving. He challenges salespeople to become sales practitioners: expert diagnosticians who create lasting value by finding and solving complex customer problems at the root.
In his book, 'Cheating Death,' Herbst teaches the inner game of sales, while the Spire Selling online courses offer holistic and immersive training for sales professionals at every level.
Now available in print, eBook, and audiobook formats, 'Cheating Death' is earning early praise as being 'deeply human,' 'game-changing' and 'essential reading for serious sellers.'

Optimal Blue Launches New Lead Generation Tool for Originators
- Capture for Originators helps lenders approach borrowers at the right time with 'makes sense' refinance scenarios - PLANO, Texas, June 9, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Optimal Blue today announced a new product that helps originators efficiently track and identify refinance opportunities so they can reengage borrowers with eligible refinance options at the right time. Available to Optimal Blue PPE users, Capture for Originators dramatically reduces the manual effort loan officers currently spend evaluating refinance potential by automatically analyzing entire portfolios each month and putting recapture opportunities directly into originators' hands. 'Instead of expecting originators to review all of their past clients to find refinance opportunities, we have given them a solution that automatically identifies an opportunity, provides pricing options and generates a presentation to the borrower,' said Mike Vough, head of corporate strategy at Optimal Blue. 'Capture gives originators an efficient, data-driven way to identify borrower savings and turn that opportunity into reality.' Capture for Originators goes far beyond basic rate alerts. It provides a user-friendly dashboard that surfaces closed loans with refinance potential, complete with break-even calculations for multiple scenarios, closing cost estimates and borrower savings analysis. By automatically factoring in lender fees and current pricing from the Optimal Blue PPE, Capture helps loan officers act quickly and accurately without spreadsheets or manual data pulls. Once an opportunity is identified, Capture for Originators generates pre-filled borrower outreach emails that include an easy-to-read summary of available refinance options backed by the industry-leading accuracy of the Optimal Blue PPE along with a link to the lender's point-of-sale experience or borrower intake form. The tool also streamlines an originator's ability to evaluate new refinance prospects. Loan officers can input referral details directly within the Capture for Originators interface, as well as send an intake form directly to new prospects, making it easy to start the conversation with referred borrowers and instantly analyze their existing loan. An activity log tracks all borrower outreach history. Developed in partnership with Uplist, a leading SaaS platform for the real estate industry, Capture for Originators includes all the data sources loan officers need to assess refinance potential. That includes automated valuation models (AVMs), county records and live pricing elements, including branch and originator margins and concessions – all integrated out of the box. With this data in place, lenders can deliver personalized refinance offers without the complexity and cost of managing external integrations or market-tracking tools. 'Our approach at Uplist is all about giving originators more efficiency and accuracy, and we are thrilled to partner with Optimal Blue to make these benefits accessible to more originators,' said Jeff Bell, president of Uplist. 'Rather than spending up to 30 minutes manually evaluating each loan and creating presentations, originators can now rely on Capture for Originators to identify refinance opportunities they might otherwise miss – and deliver them to clients with minimal effort.' To begin taking advantage of Capture for Originators, Optimal Blue PPE users should contact their Client Services representative or [email protected]. About Optimal Blue: Optimal Blue effectively bridges the primary and secondary mortgage markets to deliver the industry's only end-to-end capital markets platform. The company helps lenders of all sizes and scopes maximize profitability and operate efficiently so they can help American borrowers achieve the dream of homeownership.
