Richard Fenton

Richard Fenton grew up in Chicago, Illinois. After a stint in college, he spent five years in sales and operations at the country’s largest automotive fleet dealer with a true master of selling, his Dad. Eventually, he needed to escape his father's 'sales legend' shadow and was ready to be on his own. Richard moved to LA, where he got into the retail industry selling suits. It was there he'd learn to go for no as well. Richard discovered his true passion was developing others. After over a decade in various training positions, it was finally meeting his current business partner and wife, Andrea, that his secret entrepreneurial dream would become a reality. Together, they launched a speaking business and wrote several books over the years, with Go for No! becoming their most successful, selling well over 500,000 copies to date. Today, they speak and train at corporate meetings and conferences and continue to write and collaborate on books, including the long-awaited sequel to Go for No!
