I help consultants get clients on LinkedIn, using sales and content 🚀 Follow #RichTips for content

At some point it becomes obvious: your expertise isn’t the problem.
The real challenge is turning that expertise into consistent, high-value revenue.

Whether you lead a commercial team or run your own consultancy, gaining traction with potential clients on LinkedIn often feels harder than it should.

That’s where I come in.

I train leaders, consultants, and founders in the psychology of high-trust deal-making and sales. This helps individuals and teams move from interest to commitment without pressure or scripts.

My work blends behavioural psychology, strategic communication, and modern sales design.
More importantly, it comes from doing it:
22+ years of being a sales practitioner and $millions in converted deals.

Because theory is powerful
But you can't beat having done it too

Crucially, the help I give is for those who want to sell with nuance, credibility and long-term results.

Here’s what we focus on:
Strategic positioning: shaping how your expertise is perceived by buyers and decision-makers

Authority content: creating trust through clarity, not noise

Conversation design: turning dialogue into opportunity with structure and intent

Deal-flow mastery: applying timing, buyer psychology, and decision dynamics to close complex deals

I’ve worked with organisations from Microsoft and LinkedIn, to JP Morgan and Deloitte
Beyond this I've also coached thousands of consultants, coaches and founders

All of them have had the focus on refining how they sell and how they communicate

As a 2x LinkedIn Top Voice and LinkedIn Learning Instructor with five courses on sales and communication, studied by tens of thousands of professionals worldwide, I'm asked to work with professionals on their delivery, awareness of buyer state and the words that move a buyer to step forward. 

My communities, the LinkedIn Client Accelerator and Art of Sell, bring together over 500 members focused on mastering client acquisition and high-trust sales.

In the offline world I founded Entrepreneur Business Live, a global event series connecting business leaders to support local causes and I’ve delivered keynotes and lectures at Oxford University, Warwick Business School, University of Edinburgh, Nottingham, Pearson Business School and many more.

If you want to elevate how you or your team win clients, with more trust, depth, and commercial precision, this is where we start.

Founder - LinkedIn Client Accelerator

You know that saying "people buy from people"?
Well that's only partly true...

You also need to present your offering in a very particular way.

You see, only around 10% of purchases are for the product itself:
The "how"
The fine detail, under the hood

So approaching a prospect and over-focusing on specs, how well written the code is or how much work went into making it is typically going to fall on deaf ears.

Good for you if you love the product. 
You should. 
And you should keep striving to make it best in class.

But until it's been established that the person you're speaking with also cares about all this, hold that part back.

Instead, focus on the "outcomes" for them of using your offering.

Because people are interested in outcomes. Another word for this is the 'wins' for them. 

For them. 

They need to feel:
↳ does it make me look good / more successful?
↳ does it save me time / is it a convenience hack?
↳ does it save me money?
↳ does it make me money?

Why is this the case? 
Because you're supposed to be a solution, not another 'thing' they have to work out how to operate or another person to manage.

Be and present the solution.

Don't just indulge in over-explanation.

What's the #1 'outcome' for your offering?

How to Pitch your Service

"$36k was giving me the panics. Then I quoted $66k"

One of the members (let's call him Jake) in the Art of Sell community almost doubled his price mid-call

and he still closed the deal.

What you don't know is, I've watched Jake's mindset level up in the last year

The panic Jake said he was feeling is never about whether they can afford it, and always about saying the number out loud to another human.

Yes, the same "am I worth it" feeling you battle.

There's value in saying a higher price out loud

Even if they don't buy
Because the moment you do it, your baseline shifts

↳ Once you say it and someone says yes, everything changes
↳ Going back to lower prices starts to "feel weird"

There's a guy who runs a $300M company who got 20 minutes with Elon Musk

You know what he learned?
"I am playing so small"

Every time you go up, you realise it wasn't hard

You just had to do it

That perspective shift is EARNED

- Through reps of saying the number
- By you closing at that level
- Until it becomes your new normal

So what's the price you're too scared to say out loud?
That's probably where you need to start.

Richard Moore seated, hosting his Entrepreneur Business Live Barcelona charity networking event.

If your calls 'go well' but don't convert, this is why:

You're treating the call as a persuasion event.

It's not.

The decision was already made before you ever spoke. The call simply confirms or undermines what they already believed about you.

Here's what actually happens:

They came to you positioned as the prize. You showed up like a service provider hoping to be chosen.

I've watched this pattern across thousands of conversations over 22 years.

The call starts well.
They're engaged.
Everything feels positive.

Then comes the shift.

↳ You ask vague questions.
↳ You over-explain your process.
↳ You serve and coach instead of diagnosing and prescribing.

The version of you they met doesn't match the authority they expected.

They're looking for certainty.
What they experience is uncertainty.

You see, objections don't happen at the conversion. They're just the buyer naming the uncertainty you introduced earlier, usually when you switched into 'nice person' mode.

Here’s how to change it:

↳ Stop asking "would you be open to..." and start saying "the next step is..."
↳ Stop offering options for them to choose and start prescribing the solution they need

Authority established through content must be maintained through behaviour.

When those two things don't align, buyers feel it immediately.

They ghost.
They go cold.
They "need to think about it."

When they do align? That’s when the call converts.

Do your calls match how you position yourself?

Richard Moore hosting his Entrepreneur Business Live London charity networking event, 2023

Here's how I closed a deal with Sony
(or, the "competition play"):

Many feel the way to get a sale is to:
↳ Know the benefits
↳ Build up some rapport
↳ Lean into the best features

But everyone does that, so you need more edge.

I remember wanting to work with Sony Professional (their industry arm of the business)

And I knew that just approaching with relevance ("hey, I can help you") wouldn't work. 

That's what everyone does
That's what they expect
And I only get 1 shot

So instead, I used leverage:
In this case it was their competition

At the time, we were working with Samsung's Commercial division so I collected everything I could on their results with us.

When I approached Sony, everything I said to the Product Director was through the lens of their competitor:
• "Here's how we're doing it with Samsung"
• "This is what Samsung said when we got the result"
• "See that there? That's Samsung winning again, because of us"

I'll never forget how she started laughing down the phone at me when I asked for the order.

I started to feel concerned that I may have messed up. 

So I asked "why are you laughing?"

She said "because I have to do it, don't I?!"

The competition play isn't always the most elegant way to sell, 
but with the right people paid to take market share, it works.

And here's the lesson:
You don't have to be mean to do it

Show your results with a similar client.
It's far more compelling than just describing benefits.

Now, they'll believe it truly works

Me in a workshop recently:
"Here's how to find people actively looking"

Everyone else:
"Make lists of CEOs and DM them all"

Here's the thing about prospecting:

Amateur level LinkedIn prospecting is this:
- Make a list of 100 CEOs
- Scrape their emails with a 3rd party app
- Pray you don't get banned
- Send the same DM to them all
- Get 0 replies so think maybe your profile needs optimising
- Buy another course on improving your reach

Legendary level LinkedIn prospecting is this:
- Know where to find active leaders with a need
- Know how to start a conversation that can pivot
- Do 3-5 of these in a day
- Schedule a call a day
- Get a deal a week
- Feel fulfilled

High ticket deals with premium buyers on LinkedIn is a volume game when you haven't got a clue

But with a system and some competency, it becomes a tiny number of interactions with the right people

Easy choice (in my opinion):
Spend 80% of the day mucking around on LinkedIn 
or
Spend 80% of the day with customers

Which one did you start your business to do?

I just learnt founders waste $50k-$100k in year 1
That’s huge. But why?

Because the wrong tools or reworking is needed by early-stage teams

These are invisible costs
And they compound faster than burn rate.

Of course most of that loss doesn’t show up on a P&L, I’ve discovered, too.

Instead, it shows up as delays, rebuilds, context switching and fragmented decision-making.

These infrastructure decisions are strategic though.

And that’s why I partnered with Notion to launch the AI Founder’s Kit
↳ A practical and no-cost stack
↳ Designed to help founders
↳ It moves them from idea to execution and fundraising with far less friction.

What’s included:
- 1 year of Framer to design and ship your product experience
- $60 in v0 by Vercel to accelerate front-end development
- $300 in Supabase to stand up a scalable backend
- Up to 6 months of Notion Business with AI to run your ops and knowledge layer

But here is my favourite part

Beyond these tools, there is:
- A vetted list of 2,000+ early-stage investors, incubators, and accelerators
- 50 real pitch decks from YC, a16z and Sequoia-backed companies
- Tactical guidance on pitching, storytelling and fundraising from operators
- No hypey SaaS that doesn’t really do anything
- And no noise for your team

The stack helps serious founders reduce waste and execute

And that gives me (and I’m sure you, too) confidence!

If this would be useful for you or your team, comment NOTION and I’ll send you access

💕Thanks to the Notion team for partnering with Art of Sell

#RichTips #ad

Richard Moore speaking at an event in London

Most sales training = learn persuasion 
But that misses the point

The real job is transferring risk
Here’s why:

Every buyer will silently ask one question:
“What happens to me if this goes wrong?”

Not:
↳ “Is this good?”
↳ “Is this clever?”
↳ “Is this impressive?”

More:
↳ “Will this make me look less capable?”
↳ “Will this affect my reputation?”
↳ “Will I have to explain it to my boss?”

That’s why ROI slidedecks won’t close your deals
It’s why features don’t move people
And why “trust” isn’t built by being friendly

Trust is built when you show someone you understand the consequences they’re living with.

Again: you show them you understand

Here’s how to actually close:

1. Understand pain before you show upside
ROI only matters once risk is understood
Until then, you’re just waving numbers 
So get context in the conversation first

2. Share stories to help the buyer see themselves
Not case studies with only numbers 
But narratives where they think
“Okay, that’s literally me”

3. Handle their objections as fear, not logic
“I’ll think about it” means
I’m not feeling ready at all 

4. Do the close by making inaction feel heavier than action
No pressure. Ever!
Instead, bring clarity to what happens if nothing changes

If you’re using pressure, you’re doing it wrong.
More, you need to show them standing still is uncomfortable

When have you felt most comfortable buying?

Discussion: You're Thinking Too Small. Go BIG in 2026

Here's how my team and I closed £millions.
(it even worked on cold calls)

In my corporate days, my world was cold outreach.
By phone, by email, in person.

And my teams and I closed millions without:
- The best product on the market
- Building a personal brand
- Referrals from buyers

You see, most people use one thing to reach out

Relevance.

Here's their logic:
↳ "I do X. You can buy X. Therefore, listen to me"

And of course it doesn't work. 

Just check your junk mail for proof!

But when you add leverage to relevance, things change

What's leverage? 

It's a reason to pay attention:
↳ "You work with X. We work with X too. Let's talk"

People like that you're already trusted.
And even more if you're trusted by their friend.

Now, you have the right kind of attention;
You have trust.

And when you're a nobody, trust is the currency you need.

Until you learn to spot and fix this conversion gap:

Consistent client acquisition will remain a pipe dream.

The gap isn't between content volume and deals closed.

Right... Where is it?

It's between the psychological state you're creating and the state required for someone to buy.

I've watched this across 7 years on LinkedIn.

Founders create content that generates agreement and then struggle to turn attention into action.

Because agreement and certainty are not the same thing.

↳ Agreement is "this makes sense"
↳ Certainty is "this person can guide me"

You're optimising for the first. 
But buyers really need the second.

You write content that resonates.
It gets likes.
But your calendar will stay empty.
 
A recent client had a stack of likes but zero calls booked. 
Her content was designed to be read and shared, not to position her as the person you hire.

2 weeks after fixing her positioning, she booked 4 qualified calls.

What changed?
She stopped educating everyone and started demonstrating judgment for the people who needed her.

That’s where the conversion gap closes.

When you shift from creating agreement to creating certainty.

How?

↳ Start speaking to buyer decision-making states rather than writing to impress peers
↳ Start demonstrating judgment of their context rather than demonstrating expertise

As a result, you'll have more of the right people seeing you in the right way, compelled to engage.

Likes measure resonance.
Conversations measure certainty.

Which one are you creating?

The End of “Just Post More”: Social Selling after the Content Gold Rush

The day I almost quit attending workshops...

There I was, in 2016. I had my ticket bought and was ready to go deep in a workshop on buyer psychology.

I'd been sold the outcome of "walk away with a clear plan for why your own buyers will buy you"

What did I come out with?

↳ Two hours of nice chats
↳ Minimal discussion
↳ All high level lecturing from the host

Not good enough. 

That's why I'm very discerning about events I attend now.

You should be too. 

And that's why, when I run practical events, I do my best to give:
↳ Interaction time
↳ Ideation built into sessions
↳ Space for attendees to create

So I'm thrilled that Aarti Parmar & Sara Marshall see things the same way I do. 

We've curated a 3-part strategic immersion.
This. Is. Not. A. Workshop, people!

Welcome to Positioned to Convert.

12 people, in person, in London. March 12th.

Nice chats about marketing feels warm and fuzzy. 
But your business needs you to do better things with your time.

We'll go deep on understanding your buyers, how you'll strategise your interaction with them and the processes needed to convert them. 

For your branding:
Aarti Parmar is an award winning strategist, featured in Marie Claire, Forbes and working with Enterprise Nation

For your strategy:
Sara Marshall ex-SVP Global Marketing for Universal Pictures and Global Brand Strategy Director for Barclays

For your sales & conversion:
Richard Moore 3 x LinkedIn Top Voice in sales and conversion, 5 x LinkedIn Learning instructor. Clients include Microsoft, Deloitte and J.P. Morgan. £millions in converted sales for himself and his customers

We're keeping this intimate with 12 people so you get our fullest attention. 

You'll gain clarity for your specific business case
Not just learn about processes

So, expect to be challenged, tested and driven. 

Because this is what developing yourself should look like. 

Send me a DM if you want to apply to attend.

And consider this: do you invest in nice chats or genuine development?

Documenting the journey of crafting a timeless coffee cup brand | CEO & Founder of Cupsly

My story isn’t about a polished entrepreneur. My journey hasn’t been traditional. I left school without an English qualification, uncertain of what the future held. 

That failure shaped me, it forced me to think differently, fall into business, and ultimately embrace creativity, resilience, and the belief that change is possible, even when doubted. Fast forward to today, I’m growing and scaling businesses while sharing the real lessons that come from it.

For years... I thought starting small wasn’t even an option.

This year, I want to start small. You need to read this.

Everyone is so scared to start small and I was one of those people. I used to overthink about creating something big instead of worrying about starting small.

Turns out, starting small is how you build big.

It’s how you take the first step forward.
It’s how you stop overanalysing.
It’s how you actually start.

It almost feels wrong when you say it out loud.

But every successful founder and business you see today didn’t get where they are by massive moves. They got there by starting small and then scaling.

So if you’re starting a business, building a hobby, or whatever it may be… stop worrying about “scaling big” and focus on the small step that gets you going.

Growing @thistlescientific and sharing the lessons while I do

Building vs scaling a business. What's the difference?

A few years ago, I learned one of the most valuable lesson in business. I left school with qualifications that made it hard for me to get any sort of job.

Luckily, my family ran a business. I jumped in and started learning. And here’s what I learned: There’s a huge difference between building and scaling.

Building a business:

Proving the idea
Short-term survival
Doing everything yourself
Energy, speed & scrappiness

Scaling a business:

Letting go of control
Long-term decisions
Patience, systems & people
Making sure it works without you.
Alignment throughout the whole company.

Building feels exciting. Scaling feels uncomfortable. Both are essential. I didn’t realise how different they both were until I lived them.

But the one thing that never changes between both? 
The hard work that comes with it.

I just spent 2 hours yesterday in one of the best meetings of my life!!!

What about? How do we build further on our foundation?

Yesterday was a special day, do you know where you get the team together and you leave feeling excited for what's to come? That's what happened.

It's been a pretty wild couple of months for Thistle, but it always comes back to the same thing. How can we deepen the connection we can have with researchers?

The personal touch.
The real support they deserve.
The professionalism and trust they have in us.

This year, we’re looking at how we double down on that.

We’ve set some big objectives, and the whole team is ready for them. If yesterday was anything to go by, this next phase is going to be an exciting one.

We can't wait to share more on this very soon.

We’re excited to announce our new collaboration.

I'm genuinely proud of the impact we're creating in research at Thistle Scientific. It started with one clear objective to make research the best it can be, not only to impact our lives, but also to impact the lives of generations to come.

Last week was a big reminder of this as we announced our collaboration with arcorisbio AG, which will help accelerate the industrialisation and commercialisation of their breakthrough MUSE® platform.

A collaboration that will help keep the world safe.

One of the best mistakes I learned pretty quickly in business.

Thinking strategy comes first in business. But it doesn’t… 

Understanding who you’re building for is.

I’m nowhere near successful yet. But I’ve been lucky to spend time around people who definitely are. And one topic comes up over and over again: 

Strategy.

How did you come up with your strategy?
Why has your strategy been effective?
When do you adapt your strategy?

The answer usually sounds complicated.
But, it keeps coming back to one word: audience.

Before you can plan anything, you have to understand them. What do they care about? When do they need to hear from you? How do they feel when they see you show up?

This is where a lot of founders go wrong. No strategy is 100% correct. It’s custom‑made based on how well you understand the information your audience is giving you.

So copying what works in another company or industry rarely works. You’re playing a different game, with different people, at a different stage.

Strategy is an understanding game.

I used to panic hearing the word strategy in business.

It sounded complicated... but it wasn’t.

I would hear the word and be like that sounds proper technical. I'd just nod like I understood exactly what it meant, when I didn't but now I get it and it's simple.

It's just a plan.

What are the objectives?
What action will you take to hit them?
Which data tells you it's working or it isn't?

We love to make words sound more complicated than they are. 

It's easy to overcomplicate things when you hear all of the advice online but it's simpler than you think. If something isn't working don't wait, go and find the reason why.

Try something. Learn. Adapt. Evolve. Repeat.
Just enjoy the process of figuring out.

That's what business is!

When I was younger, I hesitated on the idea of working for my family business.

Today, I’m 3 years in, working alongside nearly 50 incredible people.

It’s crazy how life works. Some days you’re completely against something before you’ve even tried it…then you try it and realise it was exactly what you were meant to do.

I always had this doubt in the back of my head:
That I had to prove myself somewhere else first.

That’s why:

- I started posting on LinkedIn.
- I kept looking for “my own thing”.
- I started learning more about business.

Now it feels like all of that happened so I could come back better and help continue to grow a business I genuinely care about. But this growth has hardly been me. It’s been the team I get to work with every single day.

A few things this has taught me:

- Don’t write something off until you’ve actually tried it.
- You can prove yourself elsewhere, but always bring the knowledge back

So don't resist an opportunity just because it didn't fit your picture in that specific moment of your life. It might be worth taking a closer look.

Stop listening to too much advice.

Read that again... throughout my journey, I've fallen for many distractions. Stuff that didn't feel right personally, and so many of us are going through this.

There's advice here, there and everywhere.

And it's very hard to know which is the right or wrong advice, and you know what you'll never really know. The only way to find out is to...

Listen to your gut and try.

In a world full of advice after advice, trust yourself first. 
There's no right or wrong way to do anything.

If it works, it works!

P.S. Have a little day in the life vid
