How Gian 3x Sales Meetings in 2 Months

Overview

GOALS

OBSTACLES

A lead generation and sales system within his business to remove dependance on the algorithm. A system that someone else could send the DM’s for him removing himself from the lead gen process to be able to focus on taking more meetings and growing the business. To build a group based program that’s not reliant on as much 1:1 taking his time and built in a way that can scale into the future.

Had no prior experience in sales or lead generation so essentially “I don’t know what I don’t know”. Didn’t have a structured system for managing his leads and was posting occasionally and messaging people but without a clear funnel and tracking system he was loosing many potential opportunities. Didn’t understand pre-qualification so was having meetings that were not the right fit technically wasting his time.

RESULTS
“The biggest ROI program I’ve paid for” - and is currently “Having too many sales calls”. Is now doing consistent £15k-£20k months as a solopreneur and booking 15 qualified meetings per week. Now that he has a system he’s looking at how he can scale it even more up to the £1M per year profit mark and working together to implement a sales process without sales meetings to remove his time.

How It Went Down (The Full Story)

I was actually introduced to Gian by Nick Broekema after Nick and I started working together.

Gian and I got on a Zoom call while he was still in Bali and we hit it off straight away

And he also let me know he was about to move to Australia for a bit (he lives the laptop lifestyle haha)

We did actually end up catching up when he was here — but funnily enough it wasn’t in Sydney where I live and where he came

Instead we caught up in Melbourne when we were both there for the Australian Open but separately.

We had a great night out together with myself, Gian, my partner and my brother in law

I distinctly remember everyone looking at Gian and I like we were from another planet when we chatted about LinkedIn haha.

Ok back to the main story lol.

So Gian and I were on this Zoom call and we chatted through everything.

— He had consistent inbound coming in

— He had nearly 20k followers and a blue badge (actually he got the blue badge a bit later I think)

— He was running a program with a good niche (He helps founders raise usually their Series A or PreSeed from investors and is pretty darn good at it)

But he was missing some crucial things to grow — which he was pretty clear about in all honesty what he needed.

— A consistent lead gen system

— To understand how to build it out

— And an optimised sale process

Because he didn’t have these elements he knew he wasn’t driving the revenue he wanted and was leaving A LOT of $ on the table.

There was also another thing we chatted through that kind of surprised him

How to turn his program into more of a group model — but more to come on this at a later date though.

It was pretty clear that I could help

But he was finishing up a cohort and didn’t want to start till the new year (we caught up in November I think)

So I noted it down and then reached back out then and we started working together.

And his results over the next 2 months were next level…

Even though Gian

— Didn’t come to any of the live sessions

— Didn’t have any catch-ups with myself (honestly barely even messaged me at all

— Didn’t do any of the program other than the Conversations Module (DM + sell by chat)

He is still now booking 10-15 qualified meetings per week and he doesn’t even send a single DM

(He uses scripts he built off our program and has trained someone up to do it)

And is doing consistent £15k-£20k months.

Next we will be working on how he can close deals in the DMs with no sales meetings and also build and scale up his program to deliver even more value to his clients.
