FOUNDER & CHO 🚀 Global Business Growth Mentor 🌎 Giving VALUE with Professional Tech Support to help drive CLIENT SUCCESS 🚀 TECHNOLOGY LEADER 🚀 BUSINESS CONNECTOR 🚀 CHANGING LIVES one HEART at a time ❤️

I had less than $500 to my name when I emigrated from Sri Lanka to Australia over 25 years ago. Through sheer determination, perseverance and tenacity I worked my way through various organisations and roles to achieve my goal of creating my own business venture.

In 2006 I co-founded a company in Australia and over 10 years took it from zero to a multimillion-dollar and multinational organisation with over 100 employees which was then sold to a public listed company for an 8-figure number. 

Since, I have Co-Founded of BISTEC Global Services, Founded Biz Enable and Make a Day Brighter.

I now dedicate my time and energy leading the new companies and mentoring other businesses to achieve results such as removing pain points, creating awesome culture, maximising profit margins, creating and maintaining a wow customer experience.

As a natural problem solver, I am perfectly placed to enhance your business and deliver guaranteed results through proven principles and the blueprint used to successfully grow and sell my business. 

My Daily Mantras:
- Live every moment like it is your last 
- Minimum of 30mins learning of new things 
- Record or document my ideas and thoughts 
- Reflect or Meditate


My Motto: "Vero Possums" Latin word for "Yes we can" to me this means that everything is possible if you put your mind to it.

My loving family: My beautiful wife and 4 kids keep me inspired and motivated to do everything I do and do it best.

I love meeting new people here and learning about your story, your business and your Interests. I would love to help you resolve any problems or challenges with your resourcing, technology or your business. Please connect with me to request a free consultancy session or book a time here.

We don’t only help your team members and executive team with their sales skills and strategy, but also mindset.  We will spend as long as it takes helping you achieve success, whether it’s through a one-day workshop, or spending a whole month consulting alongside you on the front line.

Employment Services Training

For the last 8 years we have been assisting employment practitioners to place more people into sustainable employment, as well as helping their jobseekers build the skills and confidence to gain employment.

From the employment practitioner’s perspective, we understand that although your job is rewarding, it has it's challenges. We get that it's nerve-racking to pick up the phone and make that cold call to employers. We get that many times your jobseeker would rather be somewhere else than sitting across the desk from you. And, we also get that it's not easy keeping someone in sustainable employment.

From the jobseeker’s perspective, we get that it’s not easy being unemployed. We understand the constant rejection is not helping your self-esteem. And, we also get that you’re probably feeling less than motivated to find a job.

That’s why we have created training and coaching programs that are tailored to both employment practitioners and their jobseekers.

Our workshops, coaching, and consultations have helped thousands of people across Australia with not only their skills, but also mindset.

Each day technically brilliant and smart people are hired to do great things in their jobs. But then comes the dreaded sales part, when they are expected to hit those KPIs and targets, without having been taught how. An IT Consultant at a consulting firm may have all the necessary skills to analyze how computer systems work within a company. But do they have the necessary skills to negotiate a deal once they make it to partner? A recruitment consultant may have the people skills but needs to know how to pick up the phone and market their job seeker. Or an entrepreneur who just quit a secure job and has to go out and hustle.

This is not your typical sales coaching training where it just teaches you sales techniques but digs deeper into the core issue, which all starts with mindset. We teach you psychological and NLP techniques in how to deal with rejection, resilience and develop the mindset to set you up for success. As well as all the sales and communication techniques which will drive growth, whether it's through your own business or KPIs at work.

This 30-day online program was designed specifically for those who are not your typical sales people but may have to sell, build relationships or influence as part of their job.

WHO WE WORK WITH
Management Consultants, Mortgage Brokers, Real Estate Agents, Recruiters, Financial Advisors, Accountants, Entrepreneurs, Case Managers, Consultants, IT Personnel, Engineers, Bankers, Stock Brokers, C-suite execs, Lawyers, Partners, and anyone who needs to sell themselves, idea, people, services, or products to others. 

But most importantly, we don’t believe in knowledge collection, but implementation and results.

Sales Trainer - TEDx Speaker - Founder & Director - Keynote Speaker - Writer - Founder

Although i've has a succesful career in sales, I also had a natural ability for teaching and coaching salespeople and non salespeople into changing their behaviour and taking action. For the past 10 years, I have worked with many sales and non salespeople who either had difficulty hitting their sales quotas, feared sales, were burnt out, or simply did not enjoy it. Through specific tools, I have been able to turn most sales teams around and help individuals fall in love with selling. 

One of my favourite things to hear when coaching individuals, is when they tell me how much they are now enjoying picking up the phone and making cold calls. Yes I've heard this so many times.

I focus on creating learning that sticks. But most importantly, I understand and apply the principles of change management to my training, because without change, the learner will simply walk out of the training not feeling inspired to implement the learning.  
 
What people are saying:

"Due to the advice in this course, we managed to sign a 1.2million$ deal, just by being more confident, by listening to the client's need, let the client express more than us. Some advice given in this course is literally worth gold. A big thanks Rana and Michael for the effort, hope this course will help many more people. Very well recommended!!!" Assaad Moawad - Head of Machine Learning Data Things

"Rana's course has helped me immensely in my career as well as personal life. By using her course and guidance, I was able to hit 103% of my target in my first quarter of my new job. Besides the obvious results, it has also helped me become a more confident person in my sales career and my personal life. I would recommend this course to anyone who is starting out in Sales." Nadun Hettiarachchi - BDR - Oracle

I definitely recommend The Selling Academy for sales training, even if you are not a salesperson, the skills and knowledge you will obtain will be next to none!"
