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! I just finished binge-watching "Light & Magic" on Disney+ and I can't stop thinking about it. This docuseries chronicles how Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) went from a scrappy team working out of a Los Angeles warehouse to becoming the most innovative visual effects studio in history. The cool thing about their story isn't just about making spaceships zoom across the screen or bringing dinosaurs to life. It's about something much more relevant to creators like us. Here are three...
Howdy Reader! Quick confession: half the reason I host Social Media News Live is because live-chat dopamine is cheaper than espresso. If you've ever posted something brilliant and watched it flat-line, you know that "Like" withdrawals are very real. We've all been there - crafting the perfect post only to hear crickets in the comments section. It's enough to make you question your social media sanity! That's why I'm bringing in the dopamine doctor herself this week. Brooke Sellas—CEO of B...
Howdy Reader! You know what's better than a superhero origin story? A spicy condiment origin story. (Though I'll never turn down a good Marvel movie... they just keep coming. But that's a spicy take for another day.) Anyway, today’s email brings you one of my favorites, AND it’s one of my favorite condiments EVER! While it seemed that Siracha was going to be the next new condiment right beside ketchup and mustard, MY go-to is one that is slightly sweeter. You guessed it, Mike’s Hot Honey...
