About SharkSale
Built by people who actually sold for a living. Designed so the next rep doesn't have to learn it on a real prospect.

Why we built this
Most sales training teaches you the idea of handling an objection. It doesn't put you in the moment — heart-rate up, mouth dry, half a sentence into a bad pitch — and force you to recover. That's the gap SharkSale was built to close.
We put you in a Discord voice channel, hand you a phone with an AI buyer on the other end, and let you eat the reps until your scorecard climbs out of the red. No human roleplay partner. No scheduled coaching call. Just press call.
What makes it different
- Voice, not chat. Full-duplex audio. You can interrupt the buyer. The buyer can interrupt you. Just like the real thing.
- Dynamic personas. 2,304 buyer combinations — different name, voice, mood, objections, and buying signals every time you call.
- Adaptive difficulty. A 10-level pressure dial that adjusts ±1 mid-call based on how you're handling it.
- Six-dimension scoring. Objection handling, buying signals, discovery, value, closing, and rapport — all scored every round.
- Certificates that mean something. Five tiers from Bronze to Diamond, each signed by a fictional shark coach. Posted in your server's "Wall of Maim."
The team
SharkSale is co-founded by Chad Keith (Founder/CEO) and Joe Swietlik (Founder/COO). Between them: north of a decade of frontline sales experience, retention turnarounds in regulated industries, and the kind of stubborn obsession with product details that only comes from people who've been on the other end of a bad pitch.
Our principles
- Reps over theory. A thousand awkward practice calls beat a thousand pages of sales books.
- Safety to suck. The whole point of practice is that nothing real is on the line.
- Honest feedback. Sugarcoated coaching trains worse sellers. The scorecard tells you what's broken.
- Built where reps live. No new portal. Sales teams already hang out in Discord — meet them there.
