William J. Truax

Bill’s focus is on Goal Achievement since setting Goals is relatively easy, Achieving them is not!
Bill helps people achieve their Goals whether they are seeking more customers, a personal passion, or goals as a member of a Project, Sales, or Management team. He has developed a 5-step program for Goal Achievement called It's Just a Skill®.
Bill is President of TRUFIELD ENTERPRISES, Inc. a firm specializing in Goal Achievement programs for Project, Sales, and Management teams as well as individuals. Along with meeting presentations and workshop facilitation, Bill is involved in Consulting and Field Implementation.

In early 1972 Bill moved to Cleveland as a salesman with the H.J. Heinz Co. and was selected by Heinz to be a member of their National Sales Training team.

Bill authored the book, The BLITZ CALL®, A System for Fear Free Prospecting and Making Cold Calls. He developed and conducts Goal Achievement Workshops, Seminars, and provides individual training and consulting via Skype and Facetime.
Bill has spent literally thousands of hours in the field making cold calls with sales professionals to teach his BLITZ CALL System. When Bill is in the field he actually makes most of the BLITZ CALLs himself regardless of the industry. This is to show that anyone can prospect; you just need to know how.
