How To Change From Hating Selling To Loving It!

By Tessa Stowe


 

Are you a self-employed professional who hates selling? Do you procrastinate selling more than anything else in your business? Do you force yourself to sell? Wouldn’t it be great if you didn’t feel that way? I promise there is a solution!

 

Maybe you've tried positive thinking or affirmations before having a sales conversation with a potential client. But that didn’t really work, did it? You still feel the same — you still hate selling.

 

Here are 5 tips, which, if applied, will have a dramatic impact on your perspective about selling. You will actually start to get excited about selling your services. Read on...

 

Tip 1: Be "you" when selling

 

A lot of people associate selling with being a "used car salesman" and don’t want others to think of them that way. The last thing you want is for people to think you are a pushy, aggressive “salesperson”, so to stop people thinking of you that way you simply avoid and resist selling, right? Not a good idea, if you want clients!

 

It's definitely true that there are a lot of stereotyped salespeople out there. It is true that some can be pushy, manipulative aggressive, etc. What is also true is that there are a lot of open, honest, authentic salespeople too. These are the truly successful salespeople, and their track records prove it.

 

Acknowledge that you are not a stereotypical salesperson. Acknowledge that you are an open, honest, authentic person. Know that you if you are open, honest and "yourself" when selling, you will be more successful. Be yourself and you will start to feel a lot more relaxed and less stressed about selling.

 

Tip 2: Find passion for what you are selling

Find out what big problems you can solve for your clients. Next, ask yourself if you are passionate and enthusiastic about solving these problems. If the answer is yes, think about all the great results and benefits people will gain from your services. Your passion and enthusiasm will then naturally start to shine through. By the way, if you are not passionate about solving these problems for your clients, I suggest you find something else to do.

 

Tip 3: See selling as serving

 

When you sell your services, you are helping people. Simply said: selling is solving problems, selling is helping, selling is serving. Now how do you feel about selling when you see it from this perspective?

 

Tip 4: See your purpose is to help as many people as you can

 

Understand that is your purpose, your moral obligation to have as many sales conversations as possible with as many people as possible. You owe it to people to provide them with your expertise and your wisdom. You have an ethical responsibility to make sure they know you and they know that you are available to help them. Now how do you feel about selling when you see it from this perspective?

 

Tip 5: Learn a sales method

 

Much fear and dislike of selling arises because we simply don’t know how to sell. If you don’t know how to do something, it is very natural to be fearful. It's nature’s way of protecting you. But you will be amazed to find out if you learn a simple sales method, a lot of that fear will go away.

 

Find and learn a sales method that is in alignment with who you are and your values. I highly recommend you learn one that is designed for non-salespeople, otherwise you run the risk of learning “techniques” which may be manipulative in nature.

 

By putting these 5 tips into practice, you will actually start looking forward to having sales conversations with prospective clients. You will start to love it! And sales will start to happen naturally.

About the products.
Votre Vu has globe trotted to gather a whole new world of fabulous skin and hair care products.  Glowing skin, healthy hair and a well- balanced body are the side effects of joining Votre Vu.  We have scouted out the finest products, filled with luxurious, natural, hard working ingredients from all over the world.  At launch we will even have an awesome beauty drink.  Each bottle is filled with powerful anti-aging fruits and exotic botanicals to boost your vitality. Essential minerals help repair, restore and balance out your body's delicate internal systems.

About the opportunity.
We threw out everything we hated about Party Plan and Net Work Marketing companies .i.e. making Consultant's-- carry inventory, bug all their neighbors and friends relentlessly, buy large monthly orders, hold parties if they don't want to, deliver products, rep a product line that is not the absolute BEST and we kept only the good!  The creative force behind this company has thought of every way to make your experience FUN and hassle free!  
From now until Spring 2008.
The opportunity for you...if you immediately share with others about this, you get to see how big your team will grow and take advantage of locking in a terrific opening position in our lucrative compensation plan.  You will benefit from your sign up, the others you sign up as well as anyone else your upline signs up and places beneath you.   You have the opportunity to launch with us in May with an excited team and already have a check on its way at the end of the first week.  OUTSTANDING.
About your options.
Just want high end skin care at a discount?
Sign up to be a consultant, the kit will be about $99 (includes $250 in products) and you won't even be charged for that until we get closer to launch.  There are no monthly minimums.  Could not be easier.
Want high end skin care at a discount and earn a little cash?
Do the same as above and sign up just 2 people to do the same. You are now eligible to earn weekly commissions.  Still no major hassles.  Your upline team may even put people on your team that counts as YOUR volume.  Nice!
Want high end skin care AND make outstanding money?
Finally this is your opportunity to get in the ground floor before a company launches!  We studied the industry and took the best of the best in aggressive compensation plans. Wait until you see the details.

Your choice.   Your opportunity.  Your You.  Say yes to Votre Vu!
