Ep 20 - Selling Meat, Not Myths: A Real Talk with Jason Strong on Relationships, Red Meat & Earning the Sale

Season 1 · Episode 20

Monday, July 28, 2025 • Duration 48:17

In this episode of Selling in the Paddock, I’m joined by Jason Strong, long-time advocate for Australia’s red meat industry and a leader with deep experience across the entire supply chain — from butcher shops to boardrooms.

Jason and I dive into:

Why selling red meat is about relationships, not just specs and science
The emotional connection people have with food — and how to work with it
How good sales reps balance office KPIs with real customer needs
Lessons from Pfizer, cattle crushes, and $82 steaks
The role of trust, storytelling, and staying grounded in your customer's world
Why ag doesn’t need to shout louder — just connect better

Whether you're in livestock, hort, dairy or beyond, this conversation will challenge and inspire how you think about sales, trust, and building long-term value.

🎧 Tune in if you’ve ever thought:

“Why didn’t they buy from me?”
“How do I connect with farmers who already have options?”
“How do I make corporate targets feel human again?”

This one is jam-packed with insights, honesty, and a few belly laughs too.

Ep 11 - Building High-Performing Teams with Paul Roos

Season 1 · Episode 11

Monday, May 26, 2025 • Duration 34:42

Guest: Paul Roos

Host: Georgia Stormont

Paul Roos needs no introduction to AFL fans—premiership coach, elite player, and now leadership consultant and business owner. In this powerful conversation, Roosy joins Georgia to unpack the crossover between elite sport and business, especially in Agriculture, where teamwork, culture and resilience matter just as much as they do in footy.

From his early days at Fitzroy to coaching the Sydney Swans to a historic premiership win and reshaping the Melbourne Football Club, Paul shares what great leadership looks like, why self-awareness is a non-negotiable, and how we can better support young people, teams, and communities.

What footy taught Paul about leadership, grit, and turning up even when it’s hard
How elite coaches manage different personalities and keep teams accountable
Why understanding your strengths (and your team’s) creates performance lift
The importance of standards, systems, and authentic leadership in culture change
How sport builds connection and why it matters in the modern workplace
How parenting, coaching and leadership all overlap in influence and empathy

“Leadership is influence. And parenting is leadership.”“If the leaders don’t uphold the standards, no one else will.”“I’ve never met a perfect coach or CEO. But the best are self-aware and build great teams around them.”“Don’t let who you are get in the way of who you need to be.”

Bonus Episode: Rejection in Sales — It’s Not Personal (But Damn, It Feels Like It)

Season 1

Thursday, May 8, 2025 • Duration 17:45

In this bonus episode of Selling in the Paddock, we're diving headfirst into one of the toughest parts of the sales game — rejection. Whether you’re selling seed, livestock, tech or training, rejection stings — especially when it feels personal.

I open up about:

The difference between rejection when selling a product vs. selling yourself (as a service)
A recent ‘no’ that hit hard and what I learned from it
How to reframe rejection as feedback, not failure
Practical tactics to bounce back when your sales tank (and your confidence) is running on empty
Why rejection might just mean “not now”, not “not ever”

This one’s honest, unfiltered and all-too-relatable. Whether you're new to sales or 20 years in, this episode is a reminder that rejection isn’t the end — it’s part of the process. And if you’ve got a good rejection story or a tip that helps you bounce back, I want to hear from you!

Keen to build your sales confidence and learn how to handle rejection like a pro?
Come along to my Open Sales Workshop in Melbourne this 10th July.
It’s designed for Ag reps from all corners of the industry — from horticulture to livestock and everything in between.

Ep 8 - Building trust one tractor at a time

Season 1 · Episode 8

Monday, May 5, 2025 • Duration 42:28

In this special episode of Selling in the Paddock, Georgia welcomes her very first guest — Mark Allott, now Sales Manager for Agriculture across Australia & New Zealand for Kubota.

Mark shares his honest and inspiring journey — from a dairy farm in South Gippsland to leading one of the country’s largest ag machinery networks. Together, we unpack his experience with self-doubt, gutsy career leaps, the art of building deep customer trust, and why relationship > commission every single time.

What we cover:

Why sales isn’t about being “salesy”
What to do when you feel like an imposter
Turning mistakes into multi-generational customer loyalty
The power of post-sale follow-up that actually matters
Why showing up for farmers as a partner (not a pushy rep) wins every time

If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t quite belong in sales, or wanted to hear what real leadership looks like in Ag — this is one not to miss.

Ep 7- Too Busy to See You? – Getting Face Time with Growers Who Say No

Season 1 · Episode 7

Monday, April 28, 2025 • Duration 18:00

In this episode of Selling in the Paddock, we're answering a real question from a listener: How do you get in front of farmers who say they’re too busy or just not interested right now? Whether they’ve never heard of you, like your product but won’t make time, or flat-out say no – we’re digging into how to build trust, show value, and get yourself on-farm.

From showing up at the local pub or footy club, to rolling up your sleeves and helping tag calves or fix fences – this one’s full of creative, gritty, and real-life ways to earn that first conversation. Because in Ag, trust isn’t built with a brochure – it’s built with presence.

Trailer - Selling in the Paddock

Season 1

Friday, April 25, 2025 • Duration 01:35

Hey, I’m Georgia Stormont — Ag Sales Coach, keynote speaker, sales rep and podcast host.

Welcome to Selling in the Paddock — real sales conversations for the Ag industry.

This podcast is for sales reps, sales managers, and business owners who work in Ag and want to get better at selling — not in a pushy, polished, or corporate way — but in a way that actually works in the paddock, at the store, or sitting at a farmer’s kitchen table.

After 15 years selling in the industry, I know what it’s like to drive around with a Ute full of samples, trying to chase down a grower who’s always “too busy,” or convince a reseller to back your product when a competitor’s undercutting you by 10%.

In this show, we get into the guts of selling — things like handling objections, knowing your value, building strong relationships, closing the deal, and making sure your sales conversations stick.

You’ll get practical strategies you can use straight away, stories from the field, a few spicy takes, and interviews with people who really get Ag.

So, if you're out there doing the work — this one's for you.

Hit follow, chuck your earbuds in, and let's get into it.
