Show notes

Helen is a Sales and Strategy Coach who teaches expert coaches exactly how to use clear, profitable messaging and a sophisticated sales strategy to: get daily attention from more of your ideal clients, position you as the leader you are so you can maximise what you charge for your expertise and gently nurture your audience to turn them into all-in, empowered buyers.

“Sales and messaging are the two core skills that all the 7 figure coaches you admire have mastered to get them to where they are and I’m here to help you get there too.”

Helen has been a solo entrepreneur for 19 years, building businesses from scratch (taking two to six-figures) and has now helped hundreds of business owners successfully grow online. Her two decades in a sales career has included financial recruitment and network marketing, where she was both internationally and nationally recognised within her company.

She is the host of the Purpose, Potential & Power podcast and in “real life”, works abroad as much as possible with her husband and two gorgeous boys. Things she's obsessed with include travel, fitness, amazing food, Selling Sunset (and all that Cali-based trash TV!), red wine and living life to the very fullest!

• The motivation behind leaving her corporate job
• Helen is sharing her entrepreneurial journey from the day she started until now
• She is sharing her best advice on how to leave your 9-5

Quotes:

"It's been quite a long journey. Well, Ive been in sales for 21 years, and I started my first solo business, so I became an entrepreneur 19 years ago, and came out of finance. So I was working, as a chartered accountant at PricewaterhouseCoopers, one of the big five accountancy firms. I really hated it. I really was not a great accountant, much more of a people person, but moved sideways into financial recruitment."

"I've got two boys so I've had a few different things going on, but I've always had success. And we talked about this when we were chatting a couple of weeks ago. It's been a fantastic journey, but it's been a long one. And I really, love to talk about this because I think so many people don't really know where they're heading. And perhaps they're feeling some sort of level of impatience."

"To what my clients needed, both the companies that were hiring and also the clients who were really looking for, for a change of career. And I was really good and I thought, well, hang on a second. This kind of logical thing to do is go and do this myself where I'm not employed by someone else and I can actually be in charge and in control of."
