Short Answer

OutBound 2026 runs November 9-12 at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas. The two-day Main Event covers buyer resistance, AI-era prospecting, and closing skills, with an optional Leadership Summit for your managers. Every ticket includes a workbook and 12 months of replay access, so the training keeps working long after your team flies home.

Key Takeaways

  • OutBound caps attendance at 400 tickets so speakers can actually coach attendees instead of just presenting to a crowd.
  • Confirmed speakers include Jeb Blount, Anthony Iannarino, Mark Hunter, Colleen Stanley, Daniel Disney, and many more. 
  • The Main Event is two full days built around breaking through buyer resistance and prospecting in an AI-driven market
  • Sales leaders can add the Leadership Summit for management-specific training beyond the two-day Main Event
  • Every ticket includes a session workbook and 12 months of replay access
  • Group discounts are available for companies sending more than one team member

Who’s Already Bringing Their Team?

You’re not the first sales leader to weigh this decision, and past years make the case better than we can. Companies across waste management, homebuilding, healthcare, insurance, industrial distribution, staffing, SaaS, and more have sent teams of five, ten, twenty, and even more people to OutBound together, from brand-new hires to CEOs.

Leadership shows up alongside the reps, not just in the audience. Presidents, COOs, Chief Revenue Officers, SVPs, and EVPs have bought tickets themselves, many at VIP or Elite tiers, sitting in the same sessions as their teams.

The pattern holds across industries because buyer resistance doesn’t care what you sell. That’s the whole reason this works for teams as different as yours.

Why Is OutBound Different Than Other Sales Conferences?

We cap OutBound tickets at 400, on purpose. A smaller room means your team gets real access to speakers like Jeb Blount, Anthony Iannarino, Mark Hunter, Colleen Stanley, and Daniel Disney.

The sessions run like workshops, not lectures, with workbooks built for discussion and questions.

It all happens at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas, a 5-star property where your team can train hard all day and still unwind at night. There’s a reason OutBound remains the top sales conference to attend, and this year, we made it better.

What Is the OutBound Theme This Year?

The main event covers the one thing every seller faces: buyer resistance. Buyer resistance is at an all-time high. Buyers are increasingly hard to reach. They are skeptical or just plain ignoring your outreach. They are screening your calls and ghosting your emails, and when they do respond, it’s the single word you dread the most: “No.”

OutBound tackles the biggest questions your reps have that you can’t answer. 

What are the biggest changes in sales this year? What are the hardest challenges that sales reps face? How can we anticipate the future of sales in a market that fluctuates by the day? How do we keep the human experience in an increasingly AI-dependent world? 

You and your team are facing AI disruptions, from automating conversations to artificial intelligence screening your calls before you can even get a human on the phone. At OutBound, you’ll learn how to work around AI disrupters and make more genuine connections when prospecting. Your reps get leadership from experts who have been steadily revamping their own sales tactics in an AI-dominated environment.

They’ll learn how to prospect and sell meaningfully and leave with a playbook to run as soon as they get home. 

Why Does Sending Your Whole Team Make A Difference?

Your reps work on the same floor, prospect together, learn from your coaching, celebrate big wins, and rely on one another for support. These are the people you trust to sell for you, who represent your business. What you invest in them is what you get out of them, and the elite sales training OutBound offers is the kind they can’t get anywhere else. 

When your team shows up to OutBound, they learn the same framework from the sessions. Their learning and growth come from the shared experience and workshops. Then, they bring all of that knowledge back to work and put it into action the same way: together. 

OutBound is the best coaching you can offer your sellers to build a stronger, more confident, and talented team. 

How Soon Do You See Return on Investment?

The investment yields results as soon as your reps land in Las Vegas, and they never stop once they get home. If your budget lets you send your team to one conference this year, let it be OutBound. Sessions include a workbook to use while engaging in the discussions and listening to the keynotes. That workbook becomes a resource that goes home with your sellers and earns a permanent spot in their workspace.

Every ticket also comes with 12 months of replay access. Forgot to write something down while you were listening? Want to watch a particular session back again after some time has passed? You can, for the entire year after OutBound. 

Your team is coming to the biggest sales conference of the year, hosted by the most influential sales leaders in the business. Take this chance on them and yourself.

When Should You Start Planning? 

Now. 

November is inching closer by the day, but you still have time to prepare. Now is when you should be:

  • Selecting the ticket options for each of your team members. Reps would benefit most from the two main days. Consider the Leadership Summit for your sales leaders. For yourself? All four days. Don’t shortchange yourself. 
  • Buy the tickets before they run out. You can buy them online or reach out to us. (Hint: ask about group discounts).
  • Book your room at Red Rock Resort. Early booking is still an option, and so are the discounted rates, but they are selling fast.
  • Make your travel plans. Get your flights locked in or secure your rental car now. 

And finally, the most important action item: set your goals.

You know what OutBound is about. You know the theme and speakers that await you and your team at OutBound. Determine what you want your team to get out of this conference so they come home with action plans, ready to be the high performers they’re meant to be. 

Commonly Asked Questions about OutBound

How many people attend OutBound?

OutBound caps attendance at 400 tickets. That keeps the room small enough for real access to speakers instead of watching from a distance in a crowd of thousands.

What’s included with an OutBound ticket?

Every ticket includes access to Main Stage sessions, a workbook for each session, and 12 months of replay access so you can revisit any session after the conference ends.

Should I send my whole sales team or just my sales leaders?

The whole team if you have the budget for it. Reps get the most value from the two-day Main Event, where the training focuses on buyer resistance and prospecting. Sales leaders and managers should also consider the Leadership Summit, built specifically for management-level challenges.

Does OutBound offer group discounts?

Yes. If you’re sending more than one person from your team, ask about group discounts when you buy tickets or reach out directly to speak with a sales trainer.

Where is OutBound 2026 being held?

OutBound 2026 takes place November 9-12 at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas.

What happens if I miss a session or want to watch it again? 

Every ticket includes 12 months of replay access, so you can rewatch any session as many times as you want for a full year after the conference.
