Han Leenhouts, Founder, Sales & Pepper 

Han Leenhouts is the founder of Sales & Pepper, the global go-to training firm for trade show performance and sales impact. With over 20 years of experience and more than 1,000 companies trained across 37 countries, Han’s specialty is simple: turning exhibitors into performers. 

Formerly a stand builder himself, Han knows what works — and what doesn’t — on the show floor. His unique approach blends behavioral psychology, bold storytelling, and a no-BS sales mindset to help teams move from just being there to dominating the room. 

Han is also the author of the bestsellers Peppertalk and Peppertalk 2.0 (over 24,000 copies sold combined), a sought-after speaker for global industry leaders like UFI, IFES, EDPA, AOE, and a virtual training expert since 2020. Authentic, high-energy, and deeply human, Han doesn’t just train, he activates. “You don’t have to be amazing to start. But you do have to start to become amazing.”
