Why 95% of Entrepreneurs FAIL at Sales (And Don’t Even Realise It)
This podcast episode of Keys to the Queendom is a must-listen for anyone passionate about authentic communication, ethical sales, and leadership that truly impacts lives. Join host Tamara Meyer in a candid, insightful conversation with Ryan Tuckwood, the visionary behind the Swish Sales Method (Selling With Integrity, Selling Honestly), as they dive deep into the psychology of sales and what it takes to connect, convert, and lead with truth.
Ryan shares his journey from mechanical engineering to co-founding one of Australia's most respected ethical sales education companies. You’ll hear how he transformed rejection into resilience, how Shark Tank changed the game, and why understanding human behaviour is the key to high-integrity sales.
Whether you’re a coach, entrepreneur, fitness professional, or someone who's simply passionate about growth and service — this episode will challenge your perceptions and equip you with practical tools to sell with confidence and heart.
