About Todd

From Broke to Built

I started my first business at 17 with nothing but a high school diploma and a refusal to accept the life I grew up in. By 22 I was married, a father, broke, and bankrupt. Most people would have stopped there. I was just getting started.

Over the next three decades I built and rebuilt multiple businesses, went through bankruptcy twice, learned the hard way that success is a planned event — and eventually figured out how to teach that to others. Today I serve as District Sales Manager and North American Sales Trainer for Hyundai Material Handling, while building a personal brand platform rooted in the same biblical principles I've lived by for 30 years.

My mentor Bob Proctor — one of the greatest teachers of the universal laws of success who ever lived — shaped the way I think about everything. His influence runs deep in everything I do. I'm the author of God Was Self-Employed, now in its revised and updated 2026 edition, and I'm working on my second book, A Life Worth Living.

I have three self-employed sons — Beaux, Matt, and Jake — and a stepdaughter, Madison — 17, precious, and everything I was completely unprepared for after raising three boys. I'm blessed to do all of it alongside my wife and greatest gift, Sarah.

Principles
Timeless laws that work whether you believe in them or not.
Business
30+ years of real world experience.
Grit
Bankrupt twice. Still standing. Still building.
Service
The greatest leaders are the greatest servants.

"A backup plan is just a polite way of planning to quit."

The Book

God Was Self-Employed

If you're looking for a paint-by-numbers business book, this isn't it. God Was Self-Employed takes timeless principles from the most credible source in human history and lays them out in plain, direct, southern-fried language that anyone can understand and apply — regardless of their background or beliefs.

This book is real. It is the product of a man who has found success in spite of failure — and learned how to teach others to do the same.

Who This Book Is For

Entrepreneurs. Sales professionals. Anyone who knows deep down they were made for more than a 40-year plan that ends with 40% of what they used to make. This book is for people serious about building something that lasts — and who are tired of being told there's only one way to do it.

"God has a plan for you that is bigger than your excuses, bigger than your fears, and bigger than your failures."

— God Was Self-Employed, Todd McBroom

Todd doesn't deliver generic keynotes. He delivers the kind of message that hits you between the eyes, makes you laugh, makes you think, and sends you back to work with a completely different mindset. Whether it's a corporate sales team, an entrepreneurship conference, or a leadership summit — Todd meets the audience where they are and leaves them somewhere better. Fair warning: he calls it like he sees it.

05
You Reap What You Sow

Sales Training

'No' Is Not An Option

Todd's flagship sales training series is built on a simple philosophy: the word "no" is not a rejection — it's a redirect. Built from 30+ years of real-world selling experience and a Bob Proctor-endorsed approach, this training doesn't just teach tactics. It rewires the way your team thinks about selling, serving, and succeeding.

  • Understanding what the customer actually wants — not what you think they want
  • Building credibility and trust before you ever make a pitch
  • Mastering the philosophy before you master the process
  • Turning objections into opportunities
  • Creating long-term loyal customers through servant leadership
  • The difference between motivation and inspiration — and why it matters
