Why You're Losing Deals You Should Have Won (And How to Fix It)

Lost deals teach more than wins ever will, but only if you're willing to dig into what went wrong.

🧠 What You'll Learn

Why most lost deals trace back to poor qualification and discovery, not pricing or competition

How to use the iceberg framework to uncover client needs beneath the surface level

Questions that build the full picture: risk factors, timelines, internal workflows and decision-making structure

Speed wins deals — but only if you do it right.


If leads are slipping through the cracks, it's probably not your pitch — it’s your response time.


In this episode of Sell Like You, I’m diving into one of the simplest but most deadly advantages in sales: responsiveness.


Not “get-it-done-in-5-minutes” fast, but intentional speed — the kind that builds trust, manages expectations, and positions you as someone who gets sh*t done.


You’ll learn:

  1. Why fast follow-up doesn’t mean sloppy follow-up

  2. How to write quick, personalised responses that don’t feel rushed

  3. The psychology of silence — and how it erodes trust even when you’re doing great work

  4. The exact phrases I use when I need more time — without losing momentum

  5. The free AI tool that saves me hours a week and keeps leads warm

  6. What to automate, what to personalise, and how to tell the difference

  7. Why quiet clients may actually be at risk of churn


This isn’t about being first to reply — it’s about showing up with substance, fast.


If your pipeline’s leaking, this episode will show you where speed is your sales superpower — and how to use it to close more, churn less, and build trust from the first touch.

Lead Generation with a Guarantee: How We Built a Scalable Client Engine

From Clicks to Clients: The Full Funnel Formula That Guarantees Leads


We’ve been running this behind the scenes for a while — but now, we’re breaking it down.


In this episode of Sell Like You, Jordan’s back, and we’re pulling back the curtain on our Sales & Marketing as a Service model, aka the Full Funnel Formula.


It started as a workshop.


Now it’s a done for you, repeatable, scalable system that’s generating real leads, real conversations, and real results for our clients.


We dive into:

  1. How the Full Funnel Formula was born from our Clicks to Clients workshop

  2. Why we guarantee leads (and why almost no one else does)

  3. The real cost of a lead — and what makes someone actually give you their data

  4. Why sales and marketing must stop working in silos

  5. What makes a lead magnet work in the ChatGPT era

  6. Our follow-up strategy (hint: it’s more than just one email)

  7. Why it’s not about collecting data — it’s about creating conversations


If you’re trying to scale, simplify, or just stop throwing budget into funnels that don’t convert — this episode gives you the blueprint.


No fluff. No theory. Just the system.

Is It Micromanagement or Just Good Sales Leadership?

Missed the target? It's already too late.


If you're only tracking revenue and pipeline, you're managing from behind. Sales isn’t just about the outcomes — it’s about what leads to them. And if you're not tracking activity from day one, you're missing the real indicators of success (or failure).


In this episode of Sell Like You, I’m diving into why activity-based KPIs matter more than most people realise — and how to build a system that helps you course correct before the results fall short.


You’ll learn:

🔥 Why tracking only revenue is a lagging strategy

🔥 How to build weekly activity KPIs that actually drive results

🔥 The balance between autonomy and accountability in sales teams

🔥 What to track: calls, conversations, meetings, opportunities and more

🔥 The difference between micromanagement and structure (and how to avoid both)

🔥 Why leading indicators predict future revenue better than your pipeline

🔥 How to avoid losing a team member six months in — with nothing to show for it


Whether you're leading a team or selling solo, this episode will help you build consistency, avoid last-minute panic, and start hitting targets with intention — not luck.
