  • Summary:

    In this episode of Leading Your Best Life, Leigh Farnell dives into the world of sales and why it’s crucial to invest in yourself to become a better salesperson.

    He presents compelling statistics showing the scale and value of the sales industry in both the US and Australia, emphasizing that billions are spent on sales training and kickoffs.

    Leigh outlines what it takes to thrive in sales—communication, emotional intelligence, persistence, and structured skill-building.

    He introduces the CZ6 Colour Zone Sales System as a practical, results-driven methodology to help individuals not only close more deals but also build long-term success.

    Whether you're a salesperson, sales coach, or aspiring sales leader, Leigh offers multiple avenues for personal development through online and face-to-face coaching, real-time deal support, and business licensing opportunities.

    Action Points:

    Invest in Yourself: Allocate at least $1,400 annually to personal sales training and development—just like top-performing companies do.

    Master Core Sales Skills: Focus on learning emotional intelligence, persuasion, negotiation, presentation, and objection handling.

    Practice Resilience: Build the mindset and techniques to handle rejection and delayed sales.

    Use a Proven System: Implement a structured framework like the CZ6 Colour Zone system to guide your sales process from prospecting to closing.

    Get Real-Time Coaching: Work with a coach on live deals for tailored feedback and accelerated results.

    Consider Coaching or Licensing: If you're experienced, explore becoming a licensed CZ6 coach or launching your own academy.

    Takeaway Points:

    Sales is a massive, competitive, and rewarding industry, with billions invested annually in training.

    Top earners in sales continually invest in their development—you should too if you want long-term success.

    A structured system (like CZ6) can drastically improve performance and confidence.

    Real-time support on live deals offers measurable and immediate impact.

    You can grow beyond just selling into coaching, leadership, and licensing opportunities that multiply your influence and income.

  • Over $1.5 billion is spent on Sales Kickoff and Launch events in Australia each year. (Australian Census and ATD State of Sales data)

    Your annual sales kickoff is more than just a high-energy get-together — it's a strategic opportunity to align, motivate, and launch your team toward breakout performance. But too often, kickoffs generate short-term excitement with little long-term impact.

    Here are five proven ways to make sure your sales kickoff delivers lasting value:

    👏 1. Start with Strategy, Not Just Hype

    While music, lights, and swag get attention, what your team really needs is clarity. Tie your kickoff directly to your company’s strategic goals and sales priorities for the year ahead.

    Pro Tip: Anchor the event around a central theme that reflects your growth plan — whether that’s market expansion, customer retention, or margin improvement.

    👏 2. Make It About Them, Not Just the Leaders

    Nothing kills engagement like endless executive monologues. Instead, create space for frontline voices.

    Involve top-performing reps, bring in customer testimonials, and design interactive sessions tailored to their daily challenges.

    Pro Tip: Let your people hear from peers who’ve walked the talk — and succeeded.

    👏 3. Launch a Cadence, Not Just an Event

    The biggest mistake? Treating kickoff as a one-day spectacle with no follow-up.

    The best kickoffs serve as the first chapter in a longer journey of training, coaching, and execution.

    Pro Tip: Introduce ongoing initiatives — like monthly team challenges, follow-up workshops, or manager-led reinforcement huddles — to keep momentum alive.

    👏 4. Activate Managers as Force Multipliers

    Sales managers are the make-or-break link between kickoff inspiration and daily action. Don’t just invite them — equip them.

    Pro Tip: Give managers playbooks, discussion guides, and coaching frameworks that help embed kickoff content into their weekly routines.

    👏 5. Measure What Matters — Then Celebrate It

    Without clear metrics, kickoff outcomes are impossible to track.

    Define what success looks like — activity levels, new pipeline, conversion rates — and make progress visible across the organization.

    Pro Tip: Build in public recognition and rewards for teams who execute — and let everyone see the impact of what started at kickoff.

    👏 Final Thought

    When done right, a sales kickoff doesn’t just pump up the team — it sets the tone, tools, and tempo for the entire year.

    Make it strategic. Make it stick. And make sure it pays big dividends.

  • Why would you bother with a Sales System Audit?

    What happens if you do not bother with a Sales System Audit?

    When companies do not audit their sales system, they risk missing out on:

    What They Miss Out On:

    Hidden Revenue Opportunities – Untapped potential in existing leads, clients, or cross-sell/upsell paths.

    Clarity on Sales Bottlenecks – Missed insights on where deals are stalling or why they’re being lost.

    Team Underperformance – Salespeople may be winging it without a consistent process, causing variability in results.

    Poor Forecast Accuracy – Without auditing, forecasts are often guesswork rather than data-driven.

    Loss of Competitive Edge – Competitors with optimized systems gain speed, agility, and customer trust faster.

    Low ROI on Training and Tools – Without a system review, training and tech investments often don't translate to real gains.

  • The Harsh Truth: Most Sales Training Doesn’t Stick

    Businesses invest thousands (Billions) in sales training, yet months later, salespeople fall back into old habits, and results barely improve. Why? Because traditional sales training alone isn’t enough.

    Without ongoing coaching, accountability, and a structured sales system, knowledge fades, motivation wanes, and performance plateaus.

    To achieve real, lasting sales success, you need more than a one-time workshop—you need an integrated approach.

    That’s where Leigh Farnell and the CZ6 Colour Zone Sales Excellence System come in.

    Why You Need Sales Training + Coaching + a High-Performance Sales Ecosystem

    A true transformation in sales performance happens when training is reinforced with coaching and embedded into a structured, high-performance sales ecosystem.

    Here’s why this combination is the key to sustainable success:

  • This podcast is based on two fantastic quotes.

    One from Mahatma Ghandi and the other from Muhummad Ali.

    How and Why Lose Yourself in the Service of Others if you want to Lead Your Best Life.

    Such a profound idea.

    Selfishly Unselfish..

    Here 3 Powerful Reasons to do this:

    1. You Discover a Deeper Purpose

    When you serve others, you connect to something larger than yourself. You move beyond personal gain and tap into meaning, purpose, and contribution. It’s in giving that we often find the deepest sense of fulfillment and identity.

    2. You Grow in Compassion and Perspective

    Helping others expands your empathy. You begin to see the world through different lenses, cultivating humility and wisdom. Serving others shifts your focus from “What do I want?” to “What do others need?”—and that shift often brings clarity and inner peace.

    3. You Become Your Best Self

    Service challenges you to rise—to be more generous, patient, resilient, and courageous. Ironically, the more you give, the more you grow. In losing yourself in service, you often end up becoming the person you were truly meant to be.

  • In this podcast we go into 5 powerful reasons you must KNOW YOUR NUMBERS to GROW A BACKBONE with your Business Sales.

    Discover just how empowering it is to do this simple calculation using the Financial Model Calculator I outline in this podcast.

    We also go back and listen to a key part of the Mark Jackson interview where he outlines how his father was the one to challenge him then change his whole business experience by doing the numbers and knowing the numbers.

    Here are just some of the key points:

    5 Powerful Reasons to Know Your Costs, Charge What You're Worth, and Stop Discounting

    1. Profit Protection – Know if You're Winning or Losing If you don’t know your true costs and minimum charge-out rate, you’re flying blind. Every deal could unknowingly be losing you money. Knowing your margins means you can confidently say yes to profit and no to loss-making work.

    "If you don’t measure it, you can’t manage it."

    2. Strategic Pricing – Charge What You're Worth Understanding your cost structure helps you price intentionally, not emotionally. This allows you to move from being a price-taker to a value-maker. You stop undercharging and start positioning your offer with confidence and credibility.

    "Cheap pricing often signals cheap value."

    3. Discounting Destroys Profit (Fast!) A 10% discount might seem small, but it can wipe out 50% or more of your profit margin. Unless you dramatically increase your sales volume (which often doesn't happen), you’re simply working harder for less. Know your break-even point and protect your profits.

    "Discounting is a silent profit killer."

    4. Smarter Deal Decisions – Say NO When You Must When you know your costs and minimum charge-out rate, you can walk away from bad deals with confidence. Some clients or jobs cost more than they bring in. Your pricing clarity gives you the power to make better decisions and avoid draining your resources.

    "Not all revenue is good revenue."

    5. Build a Sustainable, Scalable Business A business built on random pricing and gut-feel discounts is not scalable. But when you have structured, strategic pricing based on real numbers, you build repeatable, profitable growth. This is the foundation for long-term sustainability and business success.

    "Real businesses run on numbers, not guesswork."

    Take Action:

    Review and calculate your minimum charge-out rate.

    Know your fixed and variable costs.

    Stop discounting—start selling value.

    Train your team to price confidently.

    Build a business that grows with profit, not panic.

  • Qualtrics XM Institute in a study of over 28,000 people across 26 countries concluded that $3.7 Trillion in Global Sales were lost last year due to bad customer experiences.

    Qualtrics estimates that $74 billion was lost in Australia due to poor customer service.

    According to Moira Dorsey, Principal XM Catalyst at the Qualtrics XM Institute, "All it takes is one bad experience or wrong move for an organisation to be punished...that's why in 2024 companies need to be more careful than ever not to mistreat customers."

    Graham Harvey is a straight talker who has a passion to stop this.

    This is what he says about himself in his LinkedIn profile.

    'I work with service leaders and their teams, coaching & empowering them to design & develop cultures of service excellence that deliver standout results across their entire business organisation, especially for their customers.

    If you want someone to make you feel warm and fuzzy, to insulate you from the harsh realities of modern business, and let you pretend that ‘business-as-usual’ will get you safely to where it is you wish to go, then there are others you should probably call.

    However, suppose you want someone with the courage and experience to ask the tough questions, to help you identify and confront reality head-on, to provoke and challenge your current thinking, attitude and behaviours, and to leave you with time-proven, research-based strategies to achieve higher levels of performance that will deliver exceptional results and blow your competition out of the water. In that case, you have come to the right place.'

    IN THIS PODCAST, GRAHAM AND I DISCUSS

    His background in business and how he found his passion in coaching customer-facing businesses. How to optimise the human connection in business to grow sales, grow staff and customer engagement and grow customer retention, repeat business and referrals His values and why he uses values as critical business tools in his coaching How and why design and deliver standout customer experiences to delight customers - every time The secret to blowing your competition out of the water How and why culture is the foundation stone to outstanding customer experiences The key milestones and decisions he has made throughout his life and career that have shaped his thinking and his coaching in today's market What to ask your customer to transform your business results The Power of the 7 clients a day Program How he loves the power and impact of his Design - Deliver - Delight Program .. and much more

  • As a parent, teacher, coach, manager, mentor, leader, and human being - you need to know that the words you use and the questions you ask yourself and others makes ALL the difference.

    Here are 10 Disempowering Questions and 10 Empowering Questions you should know about and insert or delete from your communication.

    10 Disempowering Questions (That Weaken Confidence and Engagement) Do you understand? – (Yes/No answer, doesn’t check actual comprehension.) Why don’t you get this? – (Blames the learner instead of guiding them.) What’s wrong with you? – (Shames the person rather than supporting growth.) Haven’t I already explained this? – (Dismisses the need for further clarification.) Why are you struggling so much? – (Focuses on the problem, not the solution.) Do you even care about this? – (Questions motivation instead of inspiring it.) Why can’t you be more like [someone else]? – (This creates comparison and discouragement.) Are you sure you can handle this? – (Implies doubt about their capability.) What made you mess this up? – (Focuses on failure rather than improvement.) Is that really the best you can do? – (Undermines effort instead of encouraging progress.) 10 Empowering Questions (That Inspire Growth and Confidence) What’s one key takeaway from this? – (Encourages reflection and comprehension.) How would you explain this concept in your own words? – (Checks true understanding.) What’s working well for you so far? – (Build confidence by focusing on strengths.) What’s one thing you could do differently next time? – (Encourages learning from experience.) How do you see yourself applying this in real life? – (Connects learning to action.) What support or resources would help you succeed? – (Promotes problem-solving and self-advocacy.) What’s an example from your own experience that relates to this? – (This makes learning personal and relevant.) If there were no limitations, what would you try? – (Encourages creative thinking and risk-taking.) What’s the next step you can take to improve? – (Keeps the focus on progress.) What did you learn about yourself in this process? – (Encourages self-awareness and growth.)

  • In this Communication for Success - Part One, I discuss one of the dumbest questions you can ask as a Coach, Leader, Manager, Teacher or Parent.

    5 Reasons Why Asking 'Do You Understand?' Can Be a Really, Really Dumb Question


    #1 - It Puts People on the Spot – It can make the other person feel uncomfortable or defensive, especially if they don't understand but don't want to admit it. #2 - It’s Too Binary – The question only allows for a yes or no answer, without giving insight into what they actually understand or don't. #3 - It Assumes Clarity Is the Listener's Responsibility – It subtly shifts the blame onto the listener rather than the speaker for any lack of clarity. #4 - It Doesn't Check for Real Understanding – Someone can say "yes" just to move the conversation along, even if they haven't fully grasped the point. #5 - It Misses the Chance to Engage – A better approach is to ask, "What are your thoughts on that?" or "How would you explain that back to me?" which encourages dialogue and checks understanding without judgment.
