About Me - My Biography
I am the founder of Metisan. We are Sales Solution Architects.
We help growth orientated Professional Service Teams to consistently win clients they love by helping their partners and frontline people craft and embed a client connection framework and playbook through our Metisan Client Delivery Blueprint Program delivered onsite and online.
We bring together a unique blend of skills in Change Management, Sales, Buying Behaviour and Adult Engagement and Learning to convert sales sceptics into people who deeply understand their customers and how to engage successfully to deliver your most loved type of clients to the business.
The experience is about changing minds, hearts and actions in a truly experiential program that delivers real change.
I also support women founders who hate the idea of selling to unearth their own confident sales style, system and tools in my 12 week 1:1 sales training and coaching program via Zoom.
I live with my husband and two young kids (Iris – 10 and Freddie – 8) along with three older bonus kids who are often around our house and lives. This makes me highly aware of the need to balance work and life.
One thing I’ve learned from being a Mum is that there is nothing quite as educational as learning negotiation techniques from children … they are after all the masters!
I look forward to sharing my insights and ideas with you.
My Expertise
We work with Partners of Professional Service business and their teams to create and engage in sales conversations that deliver new clients through our Metisan Client Delivery Blueprint Workshops & Coaching Program delivered online or face to face.
In addition to my sales coaching and consulting I have completed a Graduate Certificate in Change Management and an MBA from the Melbourne Business School. Coupled with my hands on sales experience, I have a toolbox of techniques I draw on to help businesses to understand themselves and their customers.
As a business owner I understand the pressures of juggling cash flow, staffing and business administration, and sometimes you are the only person making it all work. Juggling and managing to keep all the hoops in the air.
I have consulted to start-ups, small and large businesses. They have one thing in common: they don’t really understand the process of who their clients are and WHY they buy from them. Unlocking this enables them to deliver more clients more easily … and that’s where I help.
My Passions
I love selling … it’s true! I know that makes me unusual. My passion is seeing professionals who ‘hate’ selling learn to LOVE it! That light in their eye when they learn that great selling isn’t about a tricky, manipulative experience, is both freeing and empowering.
My Interests
I love playing with my kids.
I love food with friends (combined is more fun).
I love learning new things about life and about myself.
