Shawna Suckow Biography

Shawna Suckow, CSP is a speaker with some serious knowledge of the customer mindset. She was a corporate buyer for 20 years. In 2008, she founded an association of senior-level buyers which now has 2,500 members across North America.

Along the way, Suckow became intrigued with how customers of all kinds were evolving and responding to different sales & marketing efforts. She began sharing this insider information to audiences to pull back the curtain, so to speak. She realized that when these professionals had the up-to-the-minute understanding of their customers’ mindsets, they could break through the noise more effectively.

Her research and insights have never been more timely or necessary more than today. The pandemic has changed consumers more deeply and quickly than any other time in history.

Suckow has shared her research on 5 continents in 17 countries, using real case studies and data interpreted with candor and humor.

Her fifth book was just published: The Roaring Twenties: Better Sales & Marketing for a Post-Pandemic Marketplace. She’s been tracking the major shifts in consumer behavior that will impact us all as we determine how to market and sell in the Next Normal.

What she’s proud of: Honors include achieving the highest designation a speaker can earn (CSP©) – earned by less than 5% of speakers worldwide, Receiving the Iconic Woman award from the global Women’s Economic Forum in 2020, and managing not to gain weight during quarantine.

Three memorable things about Suckow: she played in the World Series of Poker Main Event in 2015. She’s so good at parallel parking, she should get a trophy. Due to a freak badminton injury, she now wears one contact lens.

  • The Roaring Twenties! How to Market & Sell in the Post-Pandemic Decade

    Welcome to the most disruptive business climate we’ve ever experienced. The pandemic threw the entire world into a tailspin, but we’re emerging now and everything looks different in this new light. There’s a lot of confusion and noise out there about what the marketplace will look like as we continue to move forward. How will you shift your strategy, your tools, and your processes to meet the quickly evolving demands of this accelerated and different marketplace? How will you position yourself for the Roaring Twenties?

    It all requires a keen understanding of your customers and how they’re making purchasing decisions now. Whether it’s B2B, at the local market, or ecommerce, how can you rise above the noise and stand out to them going forward? How can you influence the customer journey in the next normal?

    One thing is certain: new messaging and tools are key.

    Join buyer behavior expert Shawna Suckow, CSP, CVP, CMP, as she shares her latest findings on where we are, and what’s next. It’s not just data though; she’ll share case studies to give you the relevant steps you can take NOW.

    • Learn how your customers have evolved as a result or the pandemic, and what businesses need to do to adapt.
    • Gain up-to-the-minute insight into the best ways to connect with buyers of all kinds.
    • Time is of the essence! Discover what tools are working right now to break through the noise and stand out.

  • CHANGE is not a Four-Letter Word

    Did you ever think you’d be nostalgic for 2019? It’s no wonder we all long for a return to normalcy (whatever that means!) after these past two years of upheaval. There’s never been such a condensed period of change in our lifetime, and it’s been heaped upon us nonstop.

    When we can’t get off the crazy rollercoaster, humans enter the well-known fightor-flight-or-freeze mode. Well, Covid has been a rollercoaster more challenging than most of us have ever experienced, and the outcome is uncertain. What many don’t realize is that humans don’t deal well with constant uncertainty. That means we’re all under more stress than we realize.

    The good news is that change does not have to equal challenge! It can be truly great if we can get into the right headspace, and harness our circumstances.

    In this session, Shawna shares real-life stories of everyday people who have conquered change and come out the other side more resilient and happier. You’ll also do a self-assessment to measure your CTQ© • Change Tolerance Quotient. You can use your CTQ to understand and master your personalized approach to uncertainty.

    PARTICIPANT OUTCOMES

    • Understand what change does to the human mindset
    • Get clarity on your own tolerance for uncertainty through a personalized CTQ assessment
    • Discover how to harness uncertainty for greater resilience and success, both personally and in a team environment where everyone has a different change mindset.
