Vicky O’Farrell & Anthony Stears – Stop Knocking & Start Selling

Most reps still treat outreach like a numbers game. They knock, they pitch, they push… and then wonder why meetings don’t stick and deals stall. The truth? It isn’t just the script — it’s the timing, tone, and how you set up the room before you ever walk in.

In this session, Vicky & Anthony show you how to book better meetings and convert more of them, without sounding desperate, over-talking, or getting lost in “send me an email”.

They split the masterclass into two parts:
1. Winning the meeting (reading the room and closing cleanly)
2. Setting the meeting (getting your foot in the door)

Key Takeaways from Vicky & Anthony:

  • Use PTS (Permission To Speak): open calls by assuming it might be a bad time and ask for a better one, you’ll get attention without triggering resistance.
  • Pause on purpose: silence (used well) shows confidence; paraphrase back to prove you’ve listened and to confirm decisions/timelines.
  • Research like a pro: find the right name, role and context (start with LinkedIn); never ask gatekeepers to do your homework.
