Unless your sales are perfect — you’ve got a problem.
And that’s brilliant.
Because every problem points to an opportunity.
What 3 Out of 10 Sales Really Tells You
If 3 out of 10 clients say “yes” — great.
That means 7 didn’t.
(OK, they said “we’ll think about it”, but let’s be honest — that’s a no.)
Now you’ve got 7 chances to work out:
- Did we overcomplicate it?
- Did they not see the value?
- Did we recommend the wrong thing?
Fix just one of those and suddenly you’re at 5 out of 10.
Then 6. Maybe more.
What If You Think You Don’t Have a Sales Problem?
“But Ian, I don’t have a problem!”
✅ I’ve got too many leads
✅ They’re all my dream clients
✅ Every single one converts
✅ They take everything I recommend
✅ I always charge full price with zero pushback
Sounds perfect. Which probably means one of three things:
- You’re lying to yourself
- You’re delusional
- You’ve stopped aiming higher
You do have a problem. Just not one I can help you with.
Straight-jacket for Mr Jones please, nurse!
The Sales Problems I Help Fix
I love sales problems.
And ambitious business owners and MDs come to me with things like:
1. Conversations Without Conversions
The chats are happening. Sales aren’t.
2. Clients Buying Less Than They Need
They’re short-changing themselves. And you.
3. Discounting or Undercharging
You’re not charging what it’s worth. Or they’re pushing back hard.
