    270 - How to Build a Repeatable Process for Making High-Converting Offers

    Systemising your sales isn’t about getting fancy — it’s about getting consistent. If you’re doing sales in fits and starts, making things up as you go, or relying on last-minute hustle, you’re leaving money (and sanity) on the table. In this episode, your hosts Suzi Dafnis and Michelle Falzon unpack the first half of a 9-part Sales System Self-Check — the practical way to find the gaps in your sales systems that are slowing your growth and start building a sales engine that reliably produces results for you. The first five of the 9-part Sales System Self-Check are: Sales Goals, Ideal Client, High-Converting Offers, Sales Funnel, and your Marketing Calendar. Expect clear examples, smart frameworks, and next steps you can actually do this week — so your next offer isn’t a scramble, it’s a system. Listen to This Episode to Hear More About: The real reason sales feel “hard.” Why reactive, ad-hoc selling keeps you stuck — and how simple systems flip the script. How to set Sales Goals that drive action. Reverse-engineer revenue into leads, conversations, and conversions you can track. What to do when your “Ideal Client” is too broad. The surprising truth about avatars — and the ongoing system to keep yours accurate. The 7-Element Offer Checklist. Price, Inclusions, Name, Branding, Bonuses, Risk Reversal, Reason to Buy Now — and why documenting them boosts conversions. Map the journey, don’t wing it. How to design Awareness → Consideration → Conversion (plus Loyalty & Advocacy) so buyers say “yes” sooner. Make your calendar a sales tool. How to plan runway, offer windows, and fulfilment without burning out your team or audience. Red / Orange / Green self-ratings. Quick diagnostics to see exactly where your systems need work — and what to do first. From “nice idea” to “scheduled reality”. What to do this week if you’re in Red or Orange on goals, avatar, offers, funnel, or calendar. The Marketing Mountain model. Why your funnel is really an ascent — and how “ski lifts” move clients to the next offer. Real-world examples. How a single “Big Kahuna” goal (like adding an extra van) clarifies targets, timelines, and team focus.

    What if the one thing that could transform your marketing… is the thing you’ve been too afraid to say? In this episode, Suzi Dafnis and Michelle Falzon explore “The Unspoken Truth Effect” — that powerful shift that happens when you stop filtering and start speaking your truth in your marketing.

    265 - Are You Attracting the Right Leads? (And What To Do If You’re Not)

    If you’ve ever felt like your marketing is almost working — but not quite clicking — it might not be your funnel, your content, or your offer that’s the problem. In this episode, your hosts, Suzi Dafnis and Michelle Falzon explore a different perspective: What if you’re attracting the wrong leads? Because when the wrong people are entering your marketing ecosystem, it doesn’t matter how well-designed your strategy is — your content won’t convert, your sales conversations will feel heavy, and your offers won’t land. Listen to This Episode to Hear More About: -> The 3-part fix for getting leads who actually want to buy from you—starting now. -> The unspoken cost of wrong-fit leads: It’s not just wasted ad spend—it’s the silent killer of momentum and confidence. -> 7 powerful themes that reveal whether your current leads are a poor fit. -> The important question you need to ask as soon as you get invited to speak at an event, conference or on a podcast (and why ignoring this could fill your list with leads that will NEVER buy from you). -> Is your “freebie” secretly repelling buyers? The counterintuitive reason some lead magnets are working against you. -> Feeling exhausted by your clients? This quiet signal says you’re marketing to the wrong people. -> The “chaotic list” effect that makes it almost impossible for your offers to convert. -> The real reason you’re second-guessing everything. -> The marketing shift that filters out tyre-kickers—without sounding salesy or pushy. -> What if you’ve outgrown your audience? Here’s what to do when the clients you’re attracting don’t match who you are now. -> The telltale signs your audience is too scattered—and why it’s sabotaging your content (and your confidence). -> Is your content attracting... or qualifying? The subtle shift that makes marketing easier—and more effective. -> And so much more… Also Mentioned in This Episode: Apply For Mastermind Ready to scale your business?
