I'm Chris Berry — a sales leader and bid strategist based in the UK. I work at IEG Group leading bid and sales operations, helping organisations navigate complex procurement and win in competitive environments.
My work sits at the intersection of strategy, process, and people. I believe most sales failures aren't about product — they're about insight, qualification, and organisational alignment. That belief is what drove me to build the CHRIS Framework and the Multi-Thread Sales methodology.
I'm equally fascinated by how AI is reshaping sales — not replacing the human relationship at the heart of complex deals, but dramatically changing how we research, qualify, and engage. The AI Sales Playbook is my attempt to give practitioners a clear, practical map.
Away from work, I'm a passionate — if imperfect — golfer. The parallels between golf and sales are endless: preparation, course management, composure under pressure, and the humbling knowledge that there's always more to learn.
This site is the hub for everything I write, build, and think about. Welcome to it.

Coming soon →The AI Sales Playbook exists because AI is the biggest shift in sales productivity in a generation — and most teams are barely using it.

Preparation beats talent on a bad day. Course management beats aggression over 18 holes. And the ability to recover from a bad shot — without losing your composure — is the same skill that wins a deal you thought you'd lost.
I write about golf honestly: the good rounds, the frustrating ones, and what the sport keeps teaching me about patience, process, and perspective.
