319) 12 Lessons from £1.7M in Sales

Today’s conversation is a solo episode, but it’s not a Q&A.

It’s a special episode reflecting on the biggest lessons and insights from making over £1.7M ex VAT of sales during the last financial year between April 2024 and April 2025.

I’ve worked full time in sales now for over a decade after graduating from University in June 2014. Along the way I’ve worked in B2B and B2C sales as well as building my personal brand, social media channels, and this wonderful podcast.

This episode has 12 of the lessons I’ve learnt on how to successfully make sales and many of these will be immediately actionable for you to implement whether you run your own business, work in sales role in an organisation, or just know sales matters to your success and you want to work on it.

I have many other big lessons, insights and templates I’ve saved and written into my presentations and trainings I’ve delivered to individuals and sales teams over the last 18 months as an adhoc sales consultant.

However I am now going to offer this far more broadly and am building out the best video content for my sales masterclass. If you want to learn more on how we can work together to improve your sales skills and results then DM me ’SALES MASTERCLASS’ on LinkedIn or Instagram.

If you want more lessons like this Episode 257 recaps my 13 lessons from £1.1M ex VAT last year.
