Ricky McKenna enthusiastically inhales the dust of sales, whether it’s the scent of street sales or the fragrance of leadership development.

With his extensive sales experience, he knows what makes a successful salesperson and, most importantly, how to activate untapped potentials.

For over 25 years, he has focused his professional career in leadership positions within the media industry.

Since 2019, he has been offering customer acquisition programmes through his company, McKENNA’S SALESFARM, complemented by precise and modern training offerings for salespeople and executives as a partner of the INtem® group.

His credo: „In my trainings and coaching sessions, salespeople learn to turn sales processes into a shopping experience for customers. The focus is not on wanting to sell, but rather on understanding what the customer wants and making it the central point of the perfect sales conversation.“

His sales book, „The Sales Sat Nav for Media Consultants, published in 2023 by SpringerGabler, is one of the few sales books that exclusively deals with sales practices in the media business.

This book serves as a blueprint that maps and explains individual sales processes, guiding salespeople step by step towards sustainable revenue growth.

As a hobby musician, Ricky has been playing the violin passionately since the age of 9 and performs with several country bands in northern Germany. He lives in the German fairy tale town Buxtehude with his wife, Alex, and their two children, Sean and Lara.

What the participants say about my trainings

Discover how our participants have benefited from the offered trainings and revenue programs.

„I have known Ricky McKenna since 2019 and have had the opportunity to attend several of his trainings.
He is a professional in acquiring new customers, and I have learned a lot from his years of practical experience.
Whether it’s dealing with customer objections or closing sales, I have been able to take away valuable insights for the long term.
One thing worth highlighting is that he explains everything in a simple manner, making it immediately and easily implementable for everyone. And yes, my sales have improved significantly since then.
Thank you so much for everything, dear Ricky.“
Sandra Melin(Kleine Zeitung) Regional sales and communication solutions
„When I first heard about the upcoming training, I was initially skeptical due to my rather negative experiences with sales trainers. However, Ricky is down-to-earth, practical, and has developed a realistic guide that truly helps me with the daunting task of ‚cold calling‘.
The Sales Sat Nav training is structured, logical, and best of all, it works.
Thank you so much, Ricky.“
Mara Alten(Regio TV) Account Manager TV & Online
„Ricky McKenna is the best sales trainer I have ever encountered. With the Sales Sat Nav, I have finally learned efficient and structured sales methods that actually work in sales.“
Violeta JaicMedia Consultant Regio TV
„We have had very positive experiences with the Sales Sat Nav in recent years. With its simple and clear structure, it supports our sales staff in their daily work. It emphasises the importance of preparation and research, and provides valuable tips on how to use the gathered information to close deals faster and more effectively.“

„What are the paths to success? Which sales strategy should I apply? And most importantly, how can I psychologically interpret my customers‘ statements to turn initial resistance into success? Ricky McKenna is passionate about sales and manages to ignite this fire in his trainings. He always takes into account the personal needs and characteristics of his participants. Every course attendee, who may have previously believed they couldn’t sell, is proven wrong by Ricky McKenna. If you want to succeed in sales, you can’t overlook McKenna’s SALES FARM. Personally, I have been very successful to this day with the tools for a successful sale that I learned from Ricky McKenna, from A for acquisition to W for warm calling.“
