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.

Votre
Vu
Join Now
During Our Pre-Launch Phase!
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!
