I'm Leisa

I teach how storytelling, empathy and data-driven strategy come together to transform the way you sell.

Sales that feels natural, honest and human, for business owners and sales teams.

Via my Online Course, Online Consulting or in person.

I've sat on both sides of the sale.

As a Queensland Sales Manager, I led a team that sold millions of dollars’ worth of product,  both within the Travel and Pharmaceutical Industry.  As the link between the customer and the salesperson, my role was to make sure each salesperson was prepared to pitch my product I trained teams that customers buy when they trust that you genuinely want to help them, not when you’re just trying to hit a target.

Later, I built and sold my own online retail business with over 350 kids brands drop shipping through my platform  For this reason,  I understand the many pressures that  business owners face.

Today, I  Coach Small Business owners and train using my P.A.P.A Sales Call and Likability Frameworks.  I focus staff by using simple skills you can use again and again in real conversations.
