An engineering apprentice at the age of 20, Mike Tobin OBE fell into sales by accident, an accident that led to an amazing career and life. He was MD of the French computer company, Goupil, by 22 and later became CEO of Telecity, taking them from a market cap of £6m to almost £3bn. He was made an OBE in 2014 for his services to the digital economy. Mike’s story is fascinating, not just for what he’s achieved in his career but for how he regards sales as a key skill for life, not just for business. And then there’s the sharks!.... *Series 1 of our podcast - Episodes 1-24 - was branded differently and so might initially confuse you if you start listening anytime from March 2021. A quick explanation for you: the first series was based on the bestselling book of our company founder, Paul Owen: SECRET SKILL. HIDDEN CAREER. The premise of the book and podcast series 1 is this: 3.5 million Brits work in sales and almost every job requires sales skills at times, yet we don’t teach people how to sell. Not only do we fail to teach it but we fail to introduce it as a business skill, a life skill or a career because our culture considers sales a dirty word. Based on a bestselling book, this podcast shatters the myths around sales and introduces everyone to sales as a skill to use in business and in life, and to consider it as a potential career. For series 2, the podcast was re-branded to better reflect future content around sales leadership and how it enables you to grow your business.*Thanks for listening!
