Trust Me, I'm a Salesperson | Sales Trainer, Keynote Speaker, Author, and Pisstaker | Fluent in English, Memes, & Sarcasm 🇬🇧🇨🇦

Just another LinkedIn sales influencer... but funnier and better looking than most.

Born in 1994 in the roundabout filled town of Milton Keynes I was always the odd child at school. 

After getting the worlds most pointless degree at University of Brighton I decided to go “find myself” by working in a French Ski Resort, backpacking through south-east Asia, before temporarily settling down in Sydney Australia where I got work as a recruiter and then moving to Canada. 

Now in North America I was determined to work in SaaS sales because I saw on Reddit that you can make BANK selling software.

Just a couple of years later after trying to find my footing I was the top rep on my team.

This gave me time to open up TikTok and on April of 2021 I made my first video, then I made one everyday for 6-months. 

This opened up my love for content creation and led me to my current career in marketing, keynotes, book writing, and sales training. 

Expertise include: New Business Development, Account Management, Cold Calling, Sales Proposals/Presentations, Marketing Product Knowledge (SEO, EDM, Retargeting), Recruitment Services, Headhunting, Email Prospecting, Vice President (SEO purposes), VP, CEO, LinkedIn Recruiter/Sales Navigator, Boolean Blackbelt, Training, Sales Kick Offs, Speaker, Speech, Sales Management, and Fixing Up to Look Sharp.

🔥 ROAST my Discovery Call 🔥 

I judged a "Discovery Competition" at Salman Mohiuddin's Sales Sprint event this week

6 Sellers had 7-minutes to complete a discovery call with the bot that the team at Hyperbound uses as part of their Account Executive hiring process

Myself, Jen Allen-Knuth, and Eddy Bahnam then gave each seller feedback on what they did well with and how they could improve

I HATE giving feedback to strangers 😂

Coaching is intimate, and without knowing someone, their style, and how they like to be coached, you can end up sounding like a critical w@nker

As Babe Ruth said “The loudest boos always come from the cheapest seats.”

So I thought it'd only be fair if I also gave the challenge a spin and let strangers (that's you folks on LinkedIn) judge my performance

Naturally, I'm using GAP Selling so Keenan can judge me hardest 😉 

*note I went over the 7-minute time limit*

5 ideas to help you sell on LinkedIn (without paying for Sales Nav)

Sat in on a workshop presented by Eddy Bahnam at Salman Mohiuddin's Sales Sprint event earlier this month

(Follow Eddy for LinkedIn tips, he's the GOAT)

In that talk, Eddy shared a few creative ways to make use of LinkedIn's main site to find new leads

Including a few things I didn't know, like the job ad URL second timer 🤯 I wish i'd known that one when I was an agency recruiter

What creative ways have you found to find leads on LinkedIn?

Drop 'em below as this one will likely need a part 2

Hey there! 👋🏻

Thanks for stopping by! 

If you are in customer marketing/advocacy or sales, there's a good chance you are looking for more customer content or references, right?

If you don't want to leverage your customers, all good, I'm most likely not your guy.

If you do, I'm guessing you're manually matching prospects with customers and manually generating content like testimonials, quotes and case studies.

When you use a manual process to accomplish these tasks, oftentimes it will be time consuming, and you'll rely on a small pool of happy customers, running the risk of leaning on them a little too heavily.

Deeto helps B2B sales teams leverage their satisfied customers to close more deals, faster.

18% of prospects trust salespeople during sales processes, while 92% trust what they hear from a customer (Harvard Business Review), References have a 80-85% likelihood of influencing a B2B purchasing decision (Gartner), 92% of B2B buyers say they are more likely to purchase after reading a trustworthy review and Executive buyers consider only 19% of the meetings they have with salespeople to be valuable.

If that sounds like it could be beneficial to you, let's chat! 

If that sounds boring as hell, it was nice to meet you! I'll see you around the battlefield of LinkedIn!
