For Season 8 of the podcast,  I'm focusing on one of my greatest passions: business!  

I've had my own business since 2012 and entrepreneurship is a pursuit I devote a tonne of time, energy and focus to - whether it's growing my own business, or mentoring others in theirs.  In this season, I'll be taking you behind the scenes in my business - as well as interviewing business owners I respect enormously.

I’m very excited to share this week’s episode, as in it I share the biggest lessons I’ve had when it comes to THE most important function of any business… Sales!

Sales are the lifeblood of any business - there is no business problem that making more money won’t make go away.  But it’s also the area that holds the most fear for most entrepreneurs.  

When I started my first business in 2012, I had zero sales experience - so had to put myself on a rapid learning curve if I was to make it a success.  Thankfully, the learning and practising paid off and the business ended up turning over multi-millions of dollars a year.  

Sales is one of the areas I coach my mentees most on, and in this episode I share:

• Why you must educate yourself on how to sell
• The book that totally changed the game for me when it came to revenue generation
• Why educating your customers is critical… and when to know not to bother
• The Hunter, The Farmer and The Hunter/Farmer (this is something I always teach my mentees!)
• How a blend of flexibility and persistence resulted in $100k of new revenue for me
• The biggest mistake I see entrepreneurs making when it comes to sales
• The simply weekly ritual that can boost your revenue - with minimal effort from you
• Why reviewing your pricing can be better than finding new customers

I also do a call-out this week for interest in a business accelerator I’m exploring.  Hit this link to be on the list to hear about it: https://lorrainemurphy.com.au/business-accelerators-roi/
