Robbins Research International and Baker Communications Unveil CloudCoaching International

Robbins Research International (RRI) and Baker Communications have announced a joint venture focused on driving peak performance through salesforce.com

Robbins Research International (RRI), the world's leading peak performance coaching organization, founded by entrepreneur, author and peak performance strategist Tony Robbins, and Baker Communications, one of the world's leading sales performance improvement companies, have announced a joint venture focused on driving peak performance for sales organizations and helping them unleash the sales potential of their teams as they deploy salesforce.com. The venture, known as CloudCoaching International (CCI), integrates the unique peak performance strategies developed by Robbins during 30 years of working with the world's top business thought leaders, with the proven best practices and methodologies that have made Baker Communications the world's most respected provider of salesforce.com-enabled sales transformation services.

"After implementing Salesforce.com, we quickly realized that we had to undergo a cultural transformation that started with integrating new selling behaviors. User training was good, but it just wasn't going to get us the results we needed," Robbins said. "To change your culture, you must transform behaviors. We needed a partner who understood our business and would be able to deliver winning behavioral transformations. For more than six years we've had the leaders of Baker Communications attending our seminars and integrating our technology into their award winning Coaching in the Cloud™ behavioral integration system. Baker Communications turned out to be the perfect partner to truly maximize the potential of salesforce.com"

Robbins was so excited about the results his own organization achieved from working with the Baker CloudCoaching team that he and Baker Communications' President and CEO Walter Rogers decided to form a joint venture that would create massive breakthroughs for sales organizations worldwide.

"The results we achieved with Coaching in the Cloud™ were so impressive, and the similarities between Baker Communications' coaching process and my methodologies for creating breakthroughs are so compelling, that creating CloudCoaching International was a natural outcome," explained Robbins. "CloudCoaching International's mission is to help sales organizations break through their limiting beliefs and challenges while tightly integrating and maximizing their salesforce.com investment as a part of an overall sales transformation process for sales leaders, managers and sales representatives."

"Creating CloudCoaching International in partnership with Tony Robbins is a fantastic opportunity to deliver incredible, high-impact sales behavioral change to sales organizations at a time when many of them are struggling with economic headwinds and need breakthrough strategies to compete and win," said Rogers. "Combining the strengths and proven track-records of Tony Robbins and Baker Communications, CloudCoaching International will deliver to sales organizations an unprecedented sales enablement experience that will help them achieve a new level of success."

"We're excited to partner with Cloud Coaching International to help sales organizations sell better, together," said Daniel Debow, VP Salesforce Work.com. We look forward to sharing how Cloud Coaching International is using the power of Salesforce and the Work.com platform to help sales teams dramatically improve their productivity and performance."

The partnership was officially launched in late July at Robbins' Fiji island resort, along with salesforce.com founder, Marc Benioff. It's already delivering services for several of the world's most recognized brands. CloudCoaching International will formally launch during Dreamforce 2012, which will be held September 18-21 in San Francisco. Dreamforce is salesforce.com's global user conference, and this year 80,000 attendees are expected. Tony is delivering the keynote on September 21st, from 10 am to 1 pm.

During Dreamforce 2012, on Sept. 21 from 9 am - 10 am, Rogers will be leading a session titled, "How to Build a Winning Sales Organization." During the session, Rogers will be sharing insights from a new book he co-wrote with Tony Robbins that explores strategies and tactics to massively accelerate sales growth. The session will be held in Room 3009/3011 at the Moscone Center.
