Marcus Cauchi started his sales career in 1986. He has failed a lot. He's left money on the table. Well in excess of £56,000,000, and that's the stuff he can remember. He's snatched defeat from the jaws of victory more often than he cares to admit. He's a flawed human being, a creature of emotion, programming and messed up beliefs. He's also cunning, turning his propensity for self-sabotage, laziness and idiocy into a lucrative career as an author, trainer, coach, consultant and star of his own YouTube channel (www.tinyurl.com/cauchisubscribe). A master of work avoidance and a creature of the moment, he frequently writes on all subjects related to sales and selling on LinkedIn if you'd like to connect or follow his work on there. He is very responsive to questions and apt to connect especially if you engage in his threads or his 400+ articles (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandlersa...).

A frustrated stand-up comedian and heavy (metal) lead singer, Marcus channels his creative juices into entertaining CEOs, business owners and salespeople with his special brand of curmudgeonly, brutally direct, practical ways for doing less but better on purpose. His company motto is "pecunia opus dimidium duplum" which means double the money for half the work.

He teaches his clients ways to cut out the useless fat from their selling, management, recruitment and channels. His clients regularly see revenue growth in excess of 300% and profit growth in excess of 500% in under 1 year. He has clients who've been with him for 15 years. He's a licensed franchisee with Sandler, the global leader in performance improvement. His greatest pleasure in business is seeing his clients grow, win deals they never thought possible and free up choices that used to be out of their reach. He is married with 3 bright, brilliant daughters who have managed to dodge a bullet through his wife's superior gene pool. When he eventually retires he intends to be the oldest stand-up comedian on the circuit and fill the Apollo in Hammersmith where he will perform his yoga-based routine in his red latex catsuit
