Doug C. Brown: Follow-Up, Trust, and Sales That Scale


Listen Later

Doug C. Brown is the CEO of CEO Sales Strategies and a Sales, Revenue, and Profit Growth Expert. As the creator of the Double Your Sales Methodology, Doug helps businesses and independent sellers dramatically increase sales through a reliable, predictable, math-based system. He has raised close rates by 157% and boosted sales by 4,150% for clients including Tony Robbins and Chet Holmes. Over his career, Doug has founded more than 35 businesses and generated over $900 million in sales. His latest venture, Vibitno, enhances follow-up efficiency and client retention to help sellers double their sales.


In this episode, Leonard and Doug discuss:

  • The ethical foundation of high-performance sales strategies
  • Why most entrepreneurs don’t know their business numbers—and why it matters
  • How Doug’s $125,000 loss led to the creation of Vibitno, a follow-up automation platform
  • The importance of identifying your true goal in business growth
  • How client acquisition and communication are often the biggest gaps for growing companies


Key Takeaways:

  • Ethical, client-focused sales strategies aren't just feel-good ideas—they offer a powerful, repeatable framework for scaling your business with integrity. Long-term success thrives on trust and value delivery.
  • Entrepreneurs often excel at creating products but hit a ceiling when it comes to scaling. What’s missing isn’t passion—it’s operational clarity and financial discipline.
  • Vibitno was born from a painful $125K loss due to a missed follow-up, proving how critical consistent, personalized communication is to closing deals. The platform now automates this process to eliminate lost opportunities.
  • If your business earns under $1M annually, your number one priority should be acquiring clients—relentlessly and strategically. Most growth issues stem from a lack of consistent lead flow, not service quality.
  • Before scaling, ask yourself what you truly want. Success can turn into a trap if the business you're building doesn’t align with your life goals.


"Every business, no matter the industry, is in the business of client acquisition. If you're under a million dollars in revenue, that should be your sole obsession—acquire, serve, deepen the relationship, and repeat.
