Cannot find any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:BIO. Run-of-the-mill businessman. Promotional article. I have checked out the references, and they are mentions in passing or press releases at best. Nothing found elsewhere. Edwardx ( talk) 20:39, 14 February 2018 (UTC) reply

Lorenzo is the author of three books. His latest book is titled The 60 Second Sale and will be published by John Wiley & Sons - a worldwide publisher of business books. The book's ISBN is 9781119499763. [1]

Argument against deletion: Lorenzo is an expert on sales. He is the published author of three books the most recent due out in July 2018 and published by large United States publishing house. I have edited the page to reflect this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lawrencedaniel1999 ( talkcontribs) 18:19, 17 February 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - borderline spam, heavily promotional article about person who does not meet WP:NAUTHOR nor WP:GNG. Maybe he is an expert on sales, but that's not part of any of Wikipedia's notability criteria. Most published authors are not notable according to Wikipedia's definition. -- bonadea contributions talk 18:50, 17 February 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Comment the article stinks of promotional editing. I don't see any good references that support a keep, apart from the 40 under 40, it's press releases, Youtube videos, blog posts by him, etc. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 00:29, 22 February 2018 (UTC) reply
