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,

Howdy Reader! What does 20 years of side hustling teach you? This Friday on Creator News Live, we're sitting down with Tanya Smith to find out exactly that. Tanya is the founder of Get Noticed with Video, the host of Stream Like a Boss® TV, and the creator of the BOSS Framework, a system that helps service providers turn their livestreams and podcasts into actual revenue. And she does it all without relying on algorithms. We'll be discussing: How she built a system to turn video into revenue,...

Howdy Reader! Let me ask you something… Have you ever tried to build something on the side… while everything else in life is already full? Full-time job. Family. Responsibilities. And then somewhere in there, you’re thinking, “Yeah… I’m gonna start a weekly video podcast too.” Yeah. Same. That’s exactly why I’m excited about this week’s show. We’re kicking off a new series called Side Hustle Secrets, and my guest is Sean “Tater” Roberson from But Mostly Disney. He’s balancing a full-time real...

Howdy Reader! Most of you know I love Ecamm. And I mean love love. I was a fan long before they ever sponsored the Friday live show. I’ve made real friendships with the team, and I use it multiple times every single week. So when they told me what they were building next… yeah, there may have been a happy dance involved. Let me introduce you to something new: Dual Mode. And honestly? This changes how you think about creating video. Dual Mode lets you design, record, and stream in horizontal...
