Property management businesses are leaving serious money and loyalty on the table by being reactive instead of proactive. Hermione Gardner explains exactly how to fix it. Hermione is the no-fluff business and mindset coach behind Sidekick, a growth partner built specifically for property management entrepreneurs. With 20-plus years in real estate, she’s seen the stress, the overload, and the missed opportunities up close, then turned that experience into practical coaching, training, and a mastermind community for PM business owners.

Hermione breaks down how to grow a rent roll with consultative conversations, consistent lead generation, and systems that stop teams burning out. She outlines why great property managers aren’t automatically great business owners, and what skills need to level up fast: sales confidence, financials, leadership, and scalable processes.

What if growing your business didn’t require hiring a full-time executive — but still gave you access to world-class leadership when it matters most? Colin Mills discusses how businesses are rethinking leadership, work, and growth — and why outcome-driven executive support is transforming both companies and careers.

Colin is the founder of The CFO Centre and Liberty Group, global leaders in fractional C-suite services. A former corporate CFO, Colin left the traditional track in 2001 to build what he now calls a movement — around 1,000 CFOs delivering expertise to thousands of clients worldwide.

Colin explores the evolution of fractional work post-COVID, why “fractional” may be the wrong word, and what it really takes to deliver freedom, clarity, and profitable growth for business owners.

Ingrid interviewed Colin’s son – and former professional footballer – JP Mills in episode 71 of The Sales Revolution (hear here: https://omny.fm/shows/the-sales-revolution/achieving-freedom-growth-and-legacy)

Professional services firms are facing a wake-up call. For years, many have tried squeezing a traditional B2B sales process into a consulting or accounting or engineering practice. It just doesn’t work. Professional services don’t sell in straight lines; they sell in circles. Winning work, delivering work, deepening trust, and uncovering the next opportunity all happen at once.

Ingrid breaks down why business development is now essential for consultants and practice leads, why “sales” isn’t a dirty word, and how the BD game in professional services is completely different from B2B. Get this right, and growth becomes inevitable.

Pricing is one of the most critical levers in any business, yet so often misunderstood or left to gut instinct. Today’s guest knows exactly how to turn pricing into profit.

He’s trained over 5,000 executives in 15 countries on how to make better pricing decisions.

Something’s shifting in the air. You can feel it. Conversations with business leaders sound eerily similar: layoffs in construction, slower markets, and salespeople who usually thrive now finding things tougher. When unrelated industries start echoing the same story, it’s a signal that the Australian economy may be tightening.

And when that happens, sales teams feel it first. So how do you prepare? Not by piling on more sales training, but by strengthening your leaders — the people holding it all together under pressure from every direction. Next year will test even the best. The smartest move isn’t more hustle or more noise; it’s investing in the capability of your sales leaders to lead, coach, and manage through what’s coming.
