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! My friend Lou Mongello has this great response whenever someone he meets for the first time asks him, “What do you do?” Lou’s response? “Whatever it takes…” I LOVE that. I happily admit that I’ve stolen that and used it on many occasions and will continue to in the future. (Sorry, not sorry Lou!) It’s very true that as entrepreneurs, we wear many hats, and by wearing so many hats, we look weird to the non-entrepreneur muggles out there. One minute, we may be wearing our sales...
Howdy Reader! First of all the bad news… No show today, I’m traveling back home from vacation today, and the interwebs here won’t handle a live show. BUT I’ve got some great news! If you didn’t have a chance to check out Ecamm’s training yesterday, don’t worry, because TODAY is the second round of training and you can still get in! All of the presenters are pros at being on camera, and more than just knowing what buttons to press, they are also experts at being HUMAN on camera. With people...
Howdy Reader! There's a saying that you hear around East Texas. "That guy's all hat and no cattle!" For those of you who haven't grown up around livestock, it basically means that someone may talk big or dress the part, but actually lacks the experience or results to back it up. That definitely is NOT the case with my friend Katie Fawkes. You know I’m a big fan of Ecamm. They’ve sponsored my show from day one, I’ve spoken at their events, and I count the team as friends. Katie’s been in my...
