Why Selling Your Own Stuff is SO Hard (And How to Fix It)
|
Howdy Reader! Selling stinks. When I worked for other people, I had no problem selling our services. I love recommending great products and services from brands and influencers that I know, like, and trust. So why is it so hard to actually sell our OWN products and services? Listen, I’ve heard all the sales tropes like, “you sell the sizzle, not the steak.” Or, “go after the low-hanging fruit.” And even “this is a win-win situation for both of us!” Now, if I had a tree with low-hanging sizzling steaks, THAT would be a win-win. I’d never leave the yard! Seriously though, selling is hard and not something that comes naturally to a lot of people. That’s why I’m really excited to shine the spotlight on selling on today’s show. I was blown away when I saw Conor Brown speak on the art of selling at Momentum this past year. (Don’t tell him that; I’d never hear the end of it.) He helped everyone who listened become more confident in selling their products and services, and I know he can help you, too. So join us today at 10 am central and ask your questions on selling that you’ve always been afraid to ask. See ya there, -Jeff Are you looking for powerful features without sticker shock?

Howdy Reader! “A rocking horse gives the illusion of moving, but doesn’t actually go anywhere.” I saw that line this week, followed by: “Motion isn’t Momentum” That phrase caught my eye, especially after Lou Mongello’s excellent Momentum Conference in Orlando, and hit me right in the solar plexus. After Googling where my solar plexus actually is (don’t judge), I realized how much this rings true for anyone who struggles with procrastination. Why do we tend to avoid hard (even not-so-hard)...
Howdy Reader! Ever notice how some creators just sound... professional? Like they're broadcasting from a fancy studio, even though they're probably sitting in their spare bedroom? Meanwhile, the rest of us sound like we're talking through a tin can connected to a string. (Don't worry, I've been there!) If you've ever questioned your audio setup, wondered what gear you actually need, or dreamed of launching a podcast that doesn't sound like it was recorded underwater—this episode is for you....
Howdy Reader! Greetings from Orlando! I'm back at one of my favorite conferences, Lou Mongello's Momentum, so that's why there is no live show today. Momentum is one of my favorites because it feels like a giant mastermind group, and I always come away inspired, energized, and connected with so many new fabulous creators. I'm very blessed to have so many creative friends and colleagues at this conference. Speaking of creative friends, I want to introduce you to Paul Gowder (who's actually...
