How to Stop Being Afraid to Sell

Published: Sept. 21, 2021, 12:09 p.m.

When we talk about sales, from a client perspective, clients are always afraid of being sold to, and from a sales perspective, you\u2019re often afraid to be seen as salesy or sleazy or pushy or aggressive or any of those things that are typically associated with sales. This episode is going to be helpful for you in understanding how to reframe this along with specific strategies and exercises that you can use either personally, or with your sales teams.

I\u2019ve had to overcome my fair share of fears and it is something that I still work actively with every single day, because although I'm not as afraid as I was before... I very much understand the world that you come from, perhaps that you're in currently, because it can feel aggressive. In today's episode we're going to talk all about a powerful mindset built through three simple strategies to stop being afraid to sell.\xa0

  • There is no one person on the planet that is immune to feeling fear because we all have the same parts of our brain.
  • Fear is an essential part of staying alive, but we don\u2019t need to be afraid to sell.\xa0
  • Think about what you actually are so afraid of.
