5steps in the SOLVE method
3levels to get certified
Not Comfortable Role-Playing Out Loud? Good. You Don't Have To.
Finally: a fun, effective way to train that doesn't put anyone on the spot.
If your team dreads daily role-play in front of each other, this is the fix. Train in text mode, quiet, private, just like real internet sales conversations, or switch to voice mode for a real spoken conversation, just like a real phone call or an in-person meeting. Same SOLVE Framework, two ways to practice it, zero pressure.
💬
Text Mode
Practice quietly, at your own pace. Type your discovery questions and responses just like you would in a real chat-based sales conversation, no one watching, no pressure to perform out loud.
🎙️
Voice Mode
Ready for the real thing? Switch to a live spoken conversation with the AI customer, just like an actual phone call or sitting across the table in person.
📍
Train Anywhere, Anytime
In the car on the way to work. At your desk between calls. At home after dinner. Practice during slow times instead of scrambling during busy ones - the SOLVE Framework trains around your schedule, not the other way around.
This is the SOLVE Framework, the new, genuinely fun and effective way to train and become a top-level consultant in any field. Pass the certification exam and earn your official SOLVE Framework Certification and certificate, ready to frame on your wall or add straight to your resume.

The Method
The SOLVE Framework™
A five-step, consultative approach to sales and leadership that replaces pressure with trust - the foundation for every scenario inside the training platform, and for both books.
S
Situation
Understand the situation before you say a word. Who is this person, why are they here, and what is really going on beneath the request?
O
Open with Questions
Lead with curiosity, not a pitch. The first move is a question, not a presentation.
L
Listen for the Outcome
Hear the future they are actually trying to reach. The product is never the point; the outcome is.
V
Visualize Success
Help them picture what "solved" looks like, turning it into a shared goal that prioritizes their needs and wants, so the decision feels clear instead of risky.
E
Engineer the Solution
Build the answer around them, even when the honest answer isn't you. That is what earns trust for life.
The Best Discovery Training on the Market
Practice the Framework. Get Certified.
The SOLVE Framework training platform puts you inside realistic, AI-powered discovery conversations across dozens of real-world scenarios, with instant, rubric-based feedback so every rep gets sharper every time. Master three levels of difficulty and you earn SOLVE Framework Certification.
Certified reps don't have to ask for referrals. Clients just give them.
Every manager reminds their team to ask for referrals, because most reps never earned the right to skip the ask. SOLVE Framework Certification is proof your consultant can qualify and solve nearly every customer's real need, not just close the deal in front of them. When someone genuinely feels solved for, they don't wait to be asked. They refer people on their own.
Get your whole team certified and you're not managing a group of closers anymore - you're running a team clients actively recommend.
Role-play live discovery conversations with an AI customer
Get scored against the same five-step SOLVE rubric from the books
Built to scale from a single team to 1,000+ trained professionals
Pick your track, run a real discovery conversation, and get scored, this is exactly what your team sees once they log in.
Choose Consulting or Leadership, then pick an industry vertical and difficulty level.Run a live, scored discovery conversation with an AI customer, in text or voice mode.Get an instant score plus specific coaching feedback on what to try next time.
Every business eventually has an upset customer, a frustrated client, or a conflict between two people on the same team. SOLVE Leadership takes the exact same five-step method (listen with empathy, open with questions, visualize what success looks like, and engineer a solution that doesn't blame anyone) and applies it to the conversations no one wants to have. Same platform, same scoring, same certification path. A second option right alongside Consulting.
🤝
Consulting
Every existing sales-discovery vertical: manufactured housing, real estate, auto, HVAC, plumbing, financial, insurance, and more.
New🧭
Leadership / Conflict Management
Upset customer & client service, employee grievances, and peer-to-peer team conflict, practiced the same way, scored the same way.
Upset Customer & Client Service
The most universal scenario in business: a customer or client who is unhappy, upset, or considering walking away. Practice de-escalating before it ever reaches a manager or a bad review.
Employee Grievances
Manager-to-employee disputes, complaints, and performance pushback, practiced with the same empathy-first method, so leadership handles internal conflict as well as they handle external conflict.
Peer-to-Peer Team Conflict
Coworkers and departments don't always agree. Train managers and team leads to mediate without picking a side or letting it fester.
Pass all three levels and earn SOLVE Conflict Management Certified, a distinct, resume-ready credential from your SOLVE Framework Certification, proving you can walk into any difficult conversation and leave it solved instead of escalated.
Included with every consultant seat, no separate purchase required. Switch between Consulting and Leadership scenarios anytime.
