Michael Krause

Michael Krause has spent over twenty years in sales, consistently achieving the highest levels of success in sales, management, and training. With a career and family history devoted to sales (Michael is a fourth generation sales professional), he is a veteran of driving and achieving results across an array of business models and sizes.

He earned his B.S. in Business Administration from Saint Bonaventure University where he financed his education by establishing, owning, and operating Perfection Lawn & Landscapea company he built from scratch to 130 accounts and 6 employees in 2 years.

After graduating, Michael worked as a Financial Adviser for American Express where he secured enough new clients in his early months to merit the Rookie of the Year Award. He went on to earn his M.S.M. with a concentration in Entrepreneurship from Roberts Wesleyan College.

Michael then focused his talents on Fortune 500 companies such First Data, Lexis-Nexis, Ceridian, and the Bureau of National Affairs. While the company name changed one thing remained consistent: Mike's tenacity and talents to exceed expectations. He was recognized as the top producer in his division for each company as he generated over $100 million in sales.

After spending over 12 years in Corporate America he realized his true passion was helping small and mid-sized businesses achieve their goals. Sales Sense Solutions was born on the premise of delivering Fortune 500 sales experience and success systems to these smaller companies.

Today, clients benefit from Michael's extraordinary energy and razor-sharp focus to sales processes and solutions. They genuinely appreciate his willingness and enthusiasm to spend time in the field with a sales team to really address the specifics of their challenges. Management and their teams are thrilled when they plug in their custom sales solution into their organization and experience the exceptional results.

Michael's hands-on approach carries over into his personal life. He is an active member of the Rochester business community and enjoys traveling, boating, outdoor activities, and reading.

Michael also teaches Sales Management at The College of Brockport State University of New York.

Creativity, knowledge, and innovation don't happen in a vacuum. Professional development allows ideas to cross-pollinate, ingenuity to solidify, and inspiration to build. Give you and your staff the opportunity to learn and develop. Mike educates and engages your staff on the sales dimension of a number of topics relevant to today's business environment.
