No Bollocks with Matt Haycox
Welcome to No Bollocks with Matt Haycox, the business podcast for entrepreneurs, CEOs, and anyone who wants to build big without the bullshit.
I’m Matt Haycox: investor, founder, and straight-talking business mentor. I’ve funded nearly £1 billion in UK business loans, bounced back from bankruptcy, and now own and advise multiple 7- and 8-figure companies across sectors, from property and e-commerce to finance and hospitality.
This podcast cuts through the noise. No bollocks. No gurus. Just raw conversations, real strategies, and the lessons you actually need to succeed in business.
Each episode features unfiltered insights from me and guests who’ve built it, lost it, and built it back bigger.
So buckle up. It’s time to learn how to do business, properly.

Stop Losing Sales in Your DMs: Build an Appointment-Setting Team
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
A short No Bollocks business lesson on turning DMs into booked calls, without sounding desperate.
If people are messaging you, watching your content, or enquiring about your offer, but you’re not converting them into calls, you don’t have a marketing problem. You have a conversation-to-sale problem.
In this No Bollocks business lesson, Matt breaks down how to build an appointment-setting team, the people who handle your inbound messages, qualify leads, build trust, and book your calendar with the right calls.
Online sales people call them “setters” (because they set appointments), but this is simply about building a team that turns interest into booked calls and revenue, without sounding robotic or desperate.
What you’ll learn:
- What “appointment setting” actually is (and why it matters).
- Why cheap DM staff kill trust, and how to spot it fast.
- The traits of a great appointment setter: judgment, tone, empathy, speed.
- How to hire: tests that reveal whether someone can handle real conversations.
- How to pay them so they don’t sound needy (and don’t damage your brand).
- The only metrics that matter: call quality, show-up rate, and revenue.
This lesson only works if you implement it. If you want Matt to help you build your appointment-setting system, book a Power Call.
