Do you hesitate to make sales calls? 

Avoid following up or asking for new business?

Feel drained by rejection, ghosting or silence?

Catch yourself saying “selling isn't my thing”?


It’s not the script that stops most professionals from selling - it’s the setback.  The rejection, the silence, the “no thanks”, the need to avoid looking ‘salesy’ or ‘needy’ that makes you hesitate the next time.

Techniques alone don’t help when you’ve been knocked back three times in a row, or when your last five emails went unanswered, or when self-doubt starts to creep in. 

When the pressure of selling drives your behaviours, consistency drops. Follow-ups get delayed, opportunities slip through the cracks, and potential clients drift away because they haven’t heard from you.  

Rejection isn't personal - it's part of the process

The stats make it clear:

  • 75% of sales need at least five follow-ups, but almost half of people stop after one.
  • 80% of prospects say “no” four times before they say “yes.”
  • 83% of clients are happy to refer, yet only 29% are ever asked.



The cost of hesitation isn’t just lost sales...it’s the lost momentum, lost confidence, and lost earning potential.  


Build Your Sales Resilience

Turn Resistance Into Results

What most professionals truly need is the ability to reset quickly, steady themselves emotionally, and keep moving forward with confidence even when the pressure is high.

Your capacity to stay composed, consistent, and capable under pressure, regardless of what the market throws at you, is your currency of success.

Building Sales Resilience helps you to recognise and shift the unhelpful patterns that cause hesitation, manage the emotional load of selling, and respond to setbacks in a way that strengthens rather than weakens your confidence.

When you can bounce instead of break, you become unstoppable

Instead of being derailed by silence, pushback, or uncertainty, you’ll be equipped with the tools to stay proactive, energised, and motivated. You’ll discover how to make selling feel natural and genuine rather than forced or “salesy,” and how to take purposeful action even when circumstances are challenging or unpredictable.

When pressure no longer stops you, your sales results accelerate faster than you ever thought possible.  

With stronger Sales Resilience, you will be able to:

  • Build unshakeable confidence in your selling ability and mindset
  • Overcome hesitation, self-doubt, and fear of rejection
  • Set clear sales goals that keep your pipeline full and predictable
  • Recover fast from setbacks, pushbacks and challenges
  • Reignite your drive and momentum so outreach becomes consistent
  • Make selling feel effortless, authentic, and pressure-free
  • Dissolve reluctance fast so you can reach out again and again with confidence
  • Stay focused, dollar-productive, and emotionally steady under pressure
  • Lift your conversion rate through conversations that build trust and traction
  • Present, pitch, and engage clients with greater optimism and authenticity
  • Become the go-to professional that clients refer, trust, and remember

Client Feedback

Joe Sirianni

Director of Smartline Personal Mortgage Advisors

“We chose to work with Michael because a lot of our Franchisees are self employed business people and it can be tough running a business on your own, whilst looking for new clients, and we wanted to help our people become more resilient, stay positive, and proactive in their prospecting. Michael's program not only inspired our group to stretch their comfort zones, but also showed us how to do it in in their sales and business activity.”

Drew Cahill

Director of Dungey, Carter Ketterer Real Estate

“As a result of the Michael's program we have identified and acknowledged that increasing the weekly activities in particular, property inspections and open houses, we have created an increase in our sales activity and subsequently higher commissions. This has been very evident with our lower income producers who we have worked extensively with Michael's training model and it has been successful.”

Clive Kirkpatrick


General Manager Mortgage Broking, St George Banking Group

"Michael Licenblat’s program has helped to increase the business results of our Victoria team on several fronts. His coaching process and matrix methodology has helped our State manager and BDMs to increase their client base, secure market share, and surpass their 90-day targets. Michael’s focus on measuring and implementing dollar productive activity has resulted in many thousands of dollars of extra business for our organisation."


Peter Lane

National Operations Manager, Chemmart® Pharmacy – Vic Office

“I highly recommend the Business Rainmakers program as an effective tool for managers to drive team performance. The tools are very user friendly and the program itself has become a real part of our operational culture.”
