In this episode of Don’t Shoot the Messenger, Chris Ball and Sam Oakes dive into the REAL truth about sales, especially in financial services.
Chris Ball shares his personal sales journey, from being terrible at selling to building a £250 million+ business through relentless prospecting, learning from mistakes, and developing a simple, repeatable sales process.
We cover:
- Why sales isn’t a “dirty word” (especially in financial advice)
- Common mistakes new advisors make with selling
- The art of building trust without being pushy
- How to handle objections (before they even come up!)
- Prospecting, follow-ups, and booking more meetings
- The power of process and why structure beats winging it
- Why some people are naturals at selling, and why it doesn’t matter if you’re not
- Whether you’re a financial advisor, entrepreneur, or just someone who wants to improve their sales skills, this episode is packed with practical insights, funny stories, and brutally honest lessons.
