"Businesses make money when they make the first sale, but where businesses make a lot of money is where they make the second and third sale."

Charlie Johnson took his business from $10M to $30M in revenue in about two and a half years, mostly on paid traffic. He runs two big fitness offers and a software business, Lead Wizard. At the start of this year he fi...

"My mentor gave me four of his calls, the recordings, and I listened to them 500 times over the course of the first six months."

Josh Lyons never learned sales from a script. No course, no manual, no book of questions. He's since taken four other closers to $100K a month in commissions the same way, two of them brand new to high-ticket sales, and three of hi...

"Anyone can build a tool. Not anyone can build a company."

Darren Lee opens the spreadsheet on his software company and reads a full year of costs line by line. No revenue, no MRR, just where $565,000 actually went: $280K on engineers, $71K on ads, $100K on sales commissions, $50K on events, all self-funded, no VC.

He splits it into building the thing...

Full Framework: https://events.voics.co/selling-at-scale

I've sold over a quarter of a million dollars on a single sales call, and I've done it more than once. Not because I'm a natural closer. Because the call was won before it started.

This is the full system we use to sell high ticket offers at scale, end to end: the application form, the three days before the call, the call itself gate by gate, the price, and the ...

"Pushing through is driving the car with a handbrake on."

Bogdan Micov rebuilds the psychology underneath high-ticket closers. In this episode he doesn't tell war stories — he draws the whole model on paper and shows why every sales trainer you've ever hired has been working on the wrong step.

We map conditioning, state, behaviour and results. H...

"I've never read a single sales book. Never."

Temple Naylor sold Cole Gordon's $24K offer and ran a portfolio of 65 client accounts, most of them doing $100K to $300K a month. He coaches 63 business owners now. He's 28, he grew up in a mobile home, and he dropped out of high school and taught himself to code because there was nothing else within walking di...

“You’re solving the right problem — but in the wrong order.”

Christian Schütte advises 7 and 8-figure founders, including Will Brown. In this episode he doesn’t get interviewed — he runs a live advisory session on me and finds the constraint I’d been ignoring for months.

We map every role I play. He pressure-t...

Most coaches never scale. Not because their offer is bad — because they never stop being the product.

Özkan Akkilic has a view of this that almost nobody has. He's the co-founder and CEO of Ablefy (formerly Elopage), the platform running over 75,000 online businesses — which means he can see, in real numbers, exactly who breaks through and who st...

A year ago I moved from consulting into software. This is what actually happened — the numbers, the mistakes, and the things I'd do completely differently.

No highlight reel. Six figures in ARR, pushing seven, with the goal of eight — and every expensive lesson it took to get here.

At 20, Cameron England built his agency entirely on paid ads. No organic, no posting. $50–100 a day in, clients at around $400, $1,000 up front and $1,000 every month after that.

"I don't want to be right, I just want to make money."

He started posting at 15 documenting a business he hadn't built yet, spent four years in the trenches running a marketing age...

Most people build a business anyone can copy. This 22-year-old built the opposite.

James Galligan runs A Players Club, a European members club he's taken city to city across the continent, on a tour he openly expects to lose six figures on this year. On purpose. Because the trust it builds in person is something no funnel, no ad, and no competitor can replicate.

I sat down with one of our clients — a podcast agency owner stuck at £6K/month — and built the exact roadmap to scale her to £30K/month without working more hours.

We cover the real reason done-for-you agencies hit a ceiling, how to build a hiring engine that never stops, why retainer + rev share changes everything, and the reoffer strategy that closes leads everyone else gives up on.

If you run an agency,...
