Dr. Alison Edgar MBE is one of the UK’s most recognised sales experts, a keynote speaker, TV business expert, and the woman known as the Entrepreneur’s Godmother.But her approach to sales is NOT about being pushy, manipulative or having the perfect script.It’s about understanding people.And if you think you’re “just not a salesperson”, Alison wants to change your mind.In this conversation, Alison reveals:- Why people who think they’re BAD at sales probably aren’t - and what they’re missing 👀- The sales framework she created that ended up in Ireland’s national apprenticeship programme 💪- Why understanding different personality types can COMPLETELY change the way you sell 🧠- The BIGGEST mistakes business owners make when trying to close a sale - How to know when it’s actually time to ASK 💰- Why networking ISN’T about selling to the people you meet 🤝- How to become more confident in selling, even if you don't currently like salesPlus, the incredible story of how she received an MBE for entrepreneurship, why she got into Daniel Priestley’s taxi (?!), and the business lesson she believes matters more than simply working harder.Alison doesn’t believe great salespeople are born.Sales is a skill. And like any skill, it can be learned.Because once you understand the process, understand the person in front of you, and have the confidence to actually ask for the sale - selling starts to feel VERY different.------This episode is brought to you by our sponsors: Mavericks Founders Network.If you’re an ambitious founder who’s ready to grow faster and think bigger, Mavericks is the network built to help you do exactly that.Your annual membership gives you access to four incredible in-person events each year, where you’ll connect with world-class entrepreneurs, potential clients, investors and collaborators.If you’re serious about scaling your business and surrounding yourself with people who’ll challenge, support and accelerate your journey, Mavericks Founders Network is for you.Our next event is An Evening with Carrie Green in London on 17th September... and tickets are included in your Mavericks membership!Sign up here: https://atomic.site/mavericks------Dr Alison's LinksAlison’s website https://www.alisonedgar.comAlison’s LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/alison-edgar/Alison’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thealisonedgarmbe/?hl=en-gbThe Intrapreneur Mindset Scorecard www.alisonedgar.com/the-intrapreneur-mindset-scorecard------#DontWorkHarder #BusinessGrowth #SalesandMarketing

Andrew Hulbert started his business in his bedroom with no clients, no processes, and no team.Within 18 months he hit £1.5M turnover. Within 10 years he had 500 staff, £50M turnover, and at age 37 he exited his business for £100M.Andrew grew up on a council estate in Oxford watching his parents work multiple jobs to keep the lights on. He started Pareto at 27, won Bulgari Hotel as his first client, scaled to £50M revenue, built a senior team of 15 with 100% retention over 10 years. Andrew gave his Senior Leadership Team 20% equity worth over £10M between them, and exited for nine figures, all before he turned 38.But the hard part nobody talks about - Andrew WAS the business. Every client meeting, every promise, every relationship was tied to him showing up. And that's exactly what would stop him from scaling and selling. He had to make himself irrelevant in the company he'd built on his back.In this brutally honest conversation, Andrew reveals:- How he went from bedroom to £1.5M in 12 months with nothing but a laptop and six years of networking relationships- The exact moment he realised HE was the blocker in his business' growth- His team management strategy - why he ""overpromoted"" people who wouldn't get as high level roles anywhere else - The £1M overhead investment that tanked his profit but doubled it the year after 💰- How he felt the day after his exit money hit - and how he figured out who he was WITHOUT the businessAndrew names the unbalanced years, the WhatsApp rants at 11pm, the kids born during the biggest growth phase when he wasn't around enough. And the fact that even at £4M revenue, if you're the only one who can do the thing, you haven't built a business. He also names what came after - the team watching money hit their accounts, buying his parents houses, and now doing the school run every day.For anyone building something they hope to sell, who wonders if the grind is worth it, or who's realised they've become the bottleneck - this is the blueprint 🚀--------This episode is brought to you by our Sponsors:Mavericks Growth Club.

Ama Hill bootstrapped a wellness brand from £100 to £13 million in revenue in just over 4 years. Then she lost it all.She was 23, had just been fired from her recruitment job, and her hair was falling out from stress. She made a product for herself in her bedroom, posted it on Instagram to less than 1,000 followers, and hit £1,000 in sales in 10 days. By the end of year one, she'd done £1 million in revenue. She never took any investment. She manufactured in the UK so she could move fast and test products with customers in real time. The business was even listed in the Sunday Times 100 fastest growing businesses in the UK. Yet a cease and desist nearly killed the business 9 months in. The BBC even filmed a documentary about her comeback.Then in 2025, after transferring ownership, she was exited from the business she'd built.Now Ama is rebuilding. She's advising seven and eight-figure founders on marketing, product strategy, and building in public. She's planning her next product. And she's applying every lesson she learned the hard way.In this conversation, Ama reveals:- How she hit £1M in revenue in year one bootstrapping from £100💎- What happened 9 months in when a cease and desist forced them to shut down for 3 months, recall all inventory, and rebrand (they'd just signed a 3-year warehouse lease)- Why a rebrand KILLED their momentum- The pricing mistake that she didn't catch until year two - that you might be making - How she became a ""media machine"" and how that became her advantage- All of the other ""unfair advantages"" that let her move faster than competitors- What she learned too late about delegation - and how she created her own prison by working in the business instead of on it- Why hard work only gets you so far- How she's structuring her days now - for freedom and success, not to create a prison for herselfFor anyone bootstrapping a product business, scaling fast while learning on the go, or wondering what happens when you lose it all and have to start over - this is the blueprint from someone who's lived it. Ama didn't just build to £13M. She knows how to get back up and knows what to do when things fall apart. That's what makes her expertise so valuable. 🚀--------This episode is brought to you by our Sponsors:Mavericks Growth Club.This is for you if you’re ready to scale and want access to epic in-person and online events with world-class entrepreneurs who can show you the way.You’ll unlock powerful strategies on our exclusive Mavericks-only Strategy Days, where you get dedicated time to work on your business - plus access to weekly coaching calls.Sign up here: https://www.atomic.site/mavericks ------Ama's Links:Stan: https://stan.store/amaa__official------Steal our Sales Call Success Template and convert more of the right people on calls and get more ‘YESES’ than ever before without feeling salesyAccess our FREE Sales Call Success Template, to help double your conversation rate call, forevermore.https://atomic.site/sales-script/------#DontWorkHarder #BusinessGrowth #SalesandMarketing

Fifth video call of the day. On her birthday. On a family holiday, watching her dad play with her daughter in the pool, whilst dealing with a crisis back at the office that only she could handle.In that moment Amelia Sordell realised she'd built a prison, not a business - and spent the next 18 months deliberately ""unscaling"" the UK's leading personal branding agency to rebuild something aligned 💡Now she's building Mother - a media company for women, by women - and teaching female founders to use their voice to gain competitive advantage in a space dominated by men.Amelia is a personal branding consultant, best-selling author, and keynote speaker with over 250,000 LinkedIn followers and 70,000 on Instagram.

What happens when you love what you do but can't sustain how hard you're working? 🙏Frankie James built Ideas Forum into one of the UK's most respected entrepreneurship platforms: the Great British Entrepreneur Awards - with 5,500+ entries at its peak!Plus... she built Ideasfest - the 4,000-person business festival that Steven Bartlett called ""Glastonbury for business."" Frankie has an incredible mindset when it comes to building a long term brand - she's turned down major sponsorship deals that didn't feel aligned with her values, and made the terrifying decision to cancel Ideasfest after selling 1,200 tickets - because she knew she couldn't deliver her best work. Her approach challenges big assumptions that the entrepreneurship space makes about hustle culture, operating with strong values, and enjoying your work.In this value-packed conversation, Frankie reveals:- The one question that made her CANCEL a sold-out event - and why sometimes stopping is braver than pushing through 👀- Why loving what you do makes knowing your limits harder - and the warning signs she watches for now 🙏- The powerful sales skill that she learned from going door-to-door, that has become her secret weapon for landing big partnerships 💰- How she gets 5,500 people to enter her awards for FREE - and still builds a profitable business model 📈- Her exact advice for getting the attention of successful people when you don't have a big audience - How she built a group of friends that TRULY understands and supports her through her struggles in business ❤️- The reality of running huge events on tiny margins - and why her venue costs mean tickets barely break evenAnd so much more. Frankie's built something massive with eight people because she's protected what matters for 12+ years - even when it meant walking away from money or pausing momentum.For entrepreneurs who genuinely love their work but wonder how they can keep pushing without burning out... this episode shows what sustainable really looks like 🙌--------This episode is brought to you by our Sponsors:Vidonary – the video tool making business videos simple and confident.
