Sarah Jolley-Jarvis

Born and raised in an entrepreneurial family, I’ve been around business for as long as I can remember. I worked in the family business during school holidays, studied business at uni, and then went on to work in various high-profile companies and even started a few of my own! The experience I took from each of my ventures was invaluable and it’s got me to where I am today. You are the sum of your experiences - I truly believe that. In every industry I’ve worked in and across all the businesses I’ve had the privilege to consult with and help, I’ve come to realise that sales is an inevitable reality. You can’t avoid it. This is especially true for businesses built around a personality or specific expertise, like so many small businesses, sole traders and consultants... Business cannot escape sales It doesn’t matter how experienced or niched they are, it doesn’t matter how painful the problem is that they solve… Without mastering sales, these businesses just become an expensive hobby or side hustle, which is NOT what their owners signed up for! I’m a relationship builder, and as such I’ve always had a knack for sales. Noticing the fact that I could help such people, I dived into the online world to serve those who had a great product or offering but didn’t have the sales and marketing know-how to do their offering any justice when selling it. Whether they were attracting the wrong sort of clients, and as a result ended up loathing the very business they set up to love...Or whether they were always in “feast or famine” mode, having to take on whatever they can each month to just scrape by - even if that means discounting themselves again and again… I started Selling Without Sleaze to help these businesses, not just to become confident around selling, but to start loving their businesses and living the life they set out to achieve. Selling Without Sleaze is my way of putting what I know into a format where I can give it to others and support them in their sales journeys - wherever they might be.
