Victor Antonio

A poor upbringing from one of the roughest areas of Chicago didn’t stop Victor Antonio from earning a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and an MBA, and building a 20-year career as a top sales executive. He eventually became the CEO of a multimillion-dollar high-tech company, and served as President of Global Sales and Marketing for a $420M company.

As Vice President of International Sales in a Fortune 500 $3B corporation at the time, he was selected from over 500 sales managers to join the President’s Advisory Council for excellence in sales and management. His international business experience spans Europe, Asia, Latin America, Australia, South Africa, and the Middle East, having notably increased annual revenue from $14M to $98M in one of his roles.

Antonio has authored 13 books on sales and motivation, including "The Logic of Success" and "Sales Ex Machina: How Artificial Intelligence is Changing the World of Selling". He is also the founder of SALES VELOCITY ACADEMY, a learning platform featuring over 500 videos. He has shared the stage with prominent figures such as Daymond John, Rudy Giuliani, and Paul Otellini. Antonio has spoken in multiple countries over the past 15 years, engaging audiences with his expertise in sales strategies, buyer psychology, and the impact of artificial intelligence on sales. His content, rooted in human behavior and psychology, is universally applicable and tailored to meet the needs of his diverse audience. From stadiums to workshops, Antonio continues to captivate audiences with precise storytelling, engaging content, and actionable insights.
