VIZIO Sales Training
The AI-Powered Seller
A Two-Track Training Program for Sales Leadership and Individual Contributors — built specifically for media & tech sales teams ready to compete at the speed of AI.

Why This Program
Stop Losing Time. Start Winning Deals.
Most sales training teaches concepts. This program builds systems. Every session is designed around the actual work VIZIO sellers and managers do every week — and every artifact built during training is ready to use the Monday after class ends.
Save Hours Every Week
Automate the research, prep, and admin that eats into selling and management time — so reps spend more hours in front of buyers, not behind a keyboard.
Win More Deals
Walk into every meeting better prepared than the competition. AI-powered account briefs, competitive intel, and proposal stress-tests give your team an unfair advantage.
Build a Lasting Edge
Leave with a personal AI system your team will use and improve for years — not a one-time workshop they'll forget in two weeks.
Made for Media & Tech
Every example, prompt, and workflow is built for your world. No generic case studies — just real scenarios from media and tech sales floors.
Program Structure
Two Tracks, One Program
VIZIO's sales org has two distinct audiences with fundamentally different daily pressures. This program delivers tailored training for both — separately, so each group can go deep on what actually moves their work forward.
Individual Contributor Track
A shared curriculum focused on the daily sales motion — prospecting, meeting prep, pipeline work, and proposal production. Every seller walks away with the same core system, adapted to their own book of business.
  • Up to 30 participants per cohort
  • Hands-on workflow building
  • Real accounts, real pipeline
People Manager Track
A smaller-cohort, customized curriculum for sales leaders — covering strategy, executive communication, team coaching, and scaling AI adoption across the org. Shaped by a pre-training survey before session one.
  • 10–15 participants per cohort
  • Custom agenda per cohort
  • Leadership-level use cases
Splitting the tracks removes the friction of training managers alongside their direct reports — and lets each group go deeper on what actually moves their work forward.

Investment

IC Track$20,000 for up to 30 participants

That's less than $667 per seller for a system they'll use every week of the year.

People Manager Track — Pricing to follow based on final cohort size (10–15 participants). A customized program built around your leaders' actual work.
The relationship doesn't end at week 4. Post-program support continues — because the goal is lasting adoption, not a one-time event.
Track 1
Individual Contributors
A shared curriculum built around the daily sales cadence. Every seller walks away with the same core system — a personal AI selling engine adapted to their own accounts, their own pipeline, and their own weekly rhythm.
The program is designed so each week builds directly on the last. By week four, sellers aren't just using AI — they're running on it.
IC Track · Week 1
Talk to AI Well
Master the R-C-T-F Prompting Framework
Most sellers use AI like a search engine — and get search-engine-quality results. In this session, sellers learn to use it like a research partner. The R-C-T-F framework (Role, Context, Task, Format) is the foundation for every prompt they'll write — and once they have it, everything else gets faster.
What You'll Learn
Role
Set AI up to think like an expert in your buyer's world — not a generic assistant.
Context
Feed it the right background so answers are relevant to your actual accounts, not the internet at large.
Task
Ask for exactly what you need — specific, actionable, scoped to your deal.
Format
Get output you can use immediately — not a wall of text you have to re-edit for 20 minutes.
What You'll Walk Away With
  • A reusable prompt template applicable to any prospect or account
  • 3 ready-to-use prompts for research, personalization, and call prep
  • Confidence to talk to AI like a pro from day one

"The R-C-T-F framework is the one skill that makes every other AI use case work. Get this right and the rest comes fast."
IC Track · Week 2
Apply It to Your Deals
AI-Powered Pipeline Work That Actually Moves Deals Forward
Knowing how to prompt is one thing. Using it on real accounts is another. In week two, sellers take the framework from week one and apply it directly to their live pipeline — building account briefs, gathering competitive intel, and pressure-testing proposals before the client does.
Account Briefs in 15 Minutes
Pull together everything you need to know about a prospect before a meeting — business priorities, org structure, recent news, and likely objections — in less time than it takes to find a parking spot.
Competitive Intelligence
Find out who's buying what, where budgets are moving, and how to position against the competition. Surface real buying signals before your competitor does.
Red-Team Your Proposal
Use AI to find the holes in your pitch before your client does. Walk into every presentation knowing you've already answered the toughest questions in the room.

Walk Away With: A repeatable account brief template · A competitive research prompt that surfaces real buying signals · A proposal stress-test checklist that makes your pitches bulletproof
IC Track · Week 3
Build Your Sales Workflows
Three Weekly Sequences That Run on Autopilot
One-off prompts are useful. Repeatable workflows are transformative. In week three, sellers chain AI tools together into three sequences they'll actually run every week — so the advantage compounds over time, not just on the days they remember to use AI.
1
Monday Account Intelligence Brief
Start every week knowing exactly where accounts stand, what's changed over the weekend, and where to focus first. Never walk into a Monday blind again.
2
Proposal Pipeline
Go from a set of notes and a client brief to a polished, client-ready deck in 30 minutes or less. Cut proposal prep time in half — without cutting quality.
3
Renewal Prep Model
Pull campaign performance data into a compelling client story that makes the renewal conversation easy and the outcome predictable.
Every workflow is plug-and-play from day one — and gets faster every week as sellers refine and personalize it to their book of business.
IC Track · Week 4
Build Your Selling System
Leave with a Fully Configured Personal AI Selling System
The final session is about putting it all together. Sellers don't just leave with ideas — they leave with a working system built around their actual accounts, their sales cycle, and their weekly rhythm. This is the session that separates reps who dabble in AI from reps who run on it.
What You'll Build in Session 4
1
Your Prompt Library
Organize your best prompts by use case — prospecting, research, proposals, renewals — so you can find and reuse them instantly without starting from scratch.
2
Your Tool Stack Map
Match the right AI tools to every stage of the VIZIO sales cycle, from first touch to renewal — so you always reach for the right tool at the right moment.
3
Your Weekly AI Rhythm
Design a simple weekly routine that compounds the advantage over every rep who isn't using AI — and that you can start running the Monday after class ends.
You'll Walk Away With
  • A personal prompt library built around real accounts and live deals
  • A tool stack mapped to the VIZIO sales cycle from prospecting to renewal
  • A weekly AI routine ready to run immediately

This is the moment reps go from using AI occasionally to running their entire book of business on it.
Track 2
People Managers
A smaller-cohort, customized curriculum for VIZIO's sales leaders. Where the IC track delivers a shared playbook every rep runs in parallel, the manager track is shaped around each cohort's specific needs — informed by a pre-training survey completed before session one ever begins.
The curriculum evolves with every cohort. No two manager programs look exactly alike — because no two leadership teams have exactly the same gaps.
Manager Track
Why a Separate Track for Managers
People managers face a fundamentally different set of daily pressures than individual contributors. Training them alongside their direct reports creates friction — for both groups. This track removes that dynamic entirely and gives leaders the space to be candid about where they're stuck.
Think Strategically at Scale
Managers need AI to help them think across larger portfolios of accounts and people — not just prep for individual meetings.
Communicate with Executive Presence
Draft board-ready updates, synthesize team input into clear recommendations, and communicate up, down, and across with clarity and speed.
Make Faster, Better Decisions
AI-supported forecasting, staffing analysis, and prioritization frameworks that free up mental bandwidth for the decisions only a manager can make.
Coach & Model AI Fluency
The manager's job isn't just to use AI — it's to set the tone for how their entire team adopts it. This track prepares them to do exactly that.
Manager Track · Pre-Work
The Pre-Training Survey
Before session one, every manager completes a short intake survey. The answers shape the entire program — so the curriculum reflects what the cohort actually needs, not a canned agenda built for a generic sales leadership audience.
What the Survey Covers
  • The 2–3 tasks eating the most time in their week
  • Where they feel stuck or under-leveraged by current tools
  • What their team's AI adoption looks like today
  • Specific meetings, decks, or deliverables they want to tackle during the program
  • Their current comfort level with AI tools
Why It Matters
Most training programs build a curriculum first and hope it applies. This one does the opposite — the survey comes first, and the curriculum is assembled around what the cohort actually flagged as highest-leverage.
The result is a program where every session feels directly relevant to the work managers are doing that same week — not a detour from it.

Every session includes content tailored to what the cohort actually needs. No filler. No generic modules.
Manager Track · Week 1
Foundations & Prompting for Leaders
The Same R-C-T-F Framework, Applied to Leadership Work
Managers learn the core prompting framework from week one — but with a different lens than the IC track. The work they're automating is different. The stakeholders are different. The constraints are different. So the prompts look different too.
What You'll Learn
R-C-T-F for Leadership Tasks
Apply the framework to executive communications, staffing decisions, and strategic planning — not just sales outreach.
How Leaders Prompt Differently
Context depth, stakeholder voice, organizational constraints — the nuances that separate a manager's prompt from a rep's prompt.
Choosing the Right Tool
When to use Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini — and what each does best for leadership-level work.
What You'll Walk Away With
  • A prompting framework built for leadership tasks, not just sales tasks
  • A first reusable prompt applied to one recurring weekly responsibility — built during the session with your real work
  • A clear mental model for which AI tool to reach for and when

Hands-on practice with each participant's real current work — not hypothetical scenarios from a different industry.
Manager Track · Week 2
Manager-Specific Use Cases
Customized Based on Pre-Training Survey Inputs
This session is shaped directly by what the cohort flagged in the pre-training survey. The specific use cases covered will vary by cohort — but the examples below represent the territory. Every artifact built during the session is real, reusable, and ready to run the next day.
Staffing Plans
Build and pressure-test headcount and territory plans with AI support — faster and with fewer blind spots.
Executive Communications
Draft leadership-ready updates, board summaries, and cross-functional memos that land with clarity and authority.
Financial Modeling
AI-assisted forecasting, scenario modeling, and budget variance analysis — without needing a data science background.
Strategic Synthesis
Turn scattered team input, meeting notes, and field intelligence into clear, prioritized strategic recommendations.
QBR & Portfolio Review Prep
Build client and portfolio reviews at scale — without spending a week of nights pulling decks together.
Performance Reviews
Draft performance feedback and coaching frameworks that are specific, fair, and faster to produce.

Walk Away With: Working prompts and templates for the 2–3 tasks each manager flagged as highest-leverage, plus real artifacts built during the session and ready to reuse immediately.
Manager Track · Week 3
Workflow Automation & Force Multipliers
Turn Weekly Tasks Into Compounding Systems
One-off prompts save minutes. Workflows save hours — and keep saving hours every week after that. Week three moves managers from using AI transactionally to building systems that run on their behalf, so the advantage compounds over time rather than requiring constant effort to maintain.
What You'll Learn
1
Workflow Architecture
How to turn repeated weekly tasks into reusable prompts and templates that anyone on the team can run.
2
Lightweight Automation
An introduction to agent and workflow automation tools — approachable for managers who aren't technical, powerful for those who are.
3
Managing Information Overload
Email, Slack, meeting notes, reporting — how to use AI to cut through the noise and surface what actually matters.
What You'll Walk Away With
  • One automation built and in production by the end of the session — not a prototype, a working system
  • A repeatable process for identifying what to automate next
  • A personal AI system that gets more valuable every week you use it

By the end of this session, managers have already recouped hours. The rest of the program is compounding returns.
Manager Track · Week 4
Coaching Your Team & Scaling AI Adoption
How to Lead an AI-Fluent Sales Org
The final session focuses on the part of the job only managers can do: setting the tone for how their teams adopt AI. A manager who uses AI well but doesn't coach their team to do the same leaves half the value on the table. This session closes that gap.
Spot & Coach AI Fluency
Learn to identify where team members are — and aren't — using AI effectively, and how to coach them forward without creating anxiety.
Run Better 1:1s & Team Meetings
Use AI to prep for performance conversations, synthesize team feedback, and run more focused, high-impact meetings.
Measure Adoption Without Tracking Tools
Qualitative signals — output quality, meeting confidence, proposal speed — tell you what adoption looks like before you ever need token-level data.
Build a Culture of AI Fluency
Create an environment where AI use is expected, modeled from the top, and continuously improved — not optional or occasional.

Walk Away With: A coaching framework for AI fluency · Qualitative adoption metrics · A clear reinforcement plan to sustain momentum after week four ends
What's Included
Everything Across Both Tracks
This isn't a workshop you attend and forget. Every element of the program is designed to create lasting behavior change — through repetition, accountability, real artifacts, and ongoing access that doesn't have an expiration date.
Custom Intake & Agenda
Pre-training survey for the Manager track shapes the curriculum. IC track content is tailored to the media & tech sales context throughout.
All Sessions Recorded
Every session is recorded and shared with participants — so the learning is accessible long after the program ends and easy to share with new team members.
Weekly Homework with Feedback
Applied exercises between every session — worked on real accounts, real deals, and real leadership challenges. Individualized feedback included.
Direct Access — Always
Every participant gets direct cell phone and calendar access throughout the program and after it ends. The relationship doesn't close at week four.
The goal: this becomes the best training investment VIZIO has made — because it builds muscle memory that sticks, not just concepts that fade.
Why It Works
Training That Builds Habits, Not Just Awareness
Training that happens once and ends is wasted money. People leave energized, forget 80% within two weeks, and return to their old habits by month two. This program is built on the same principles that turn any new skill into lasting behavior: repetition, application, and ongoing access.
What Makes This Different
Real Artifacts, Not Slides
Participants build actual prompts, templates, and workflows during the program — things they use the next Monday morning, not slides they'll never open again.
Systems, Not Tips
Every session builds toward a reusable system — not a list of AI tricks that requires effort to remember and apply.
Ongoing Access
A direct line to support when they hit the next wall — because the next wall always comes, and having someone to call makes the difference between adoption and abandonment.
