Diva Sales Tips

Sometimes I find inspiration in the most unusual places.

My friend Pat forwarded me this great ad from Coinstar called ‘Where a Woman’s Money Goes’.  Just goes to show that sometimes a bunch of small change(s) can turn into something big!

Get a load of the look on her face.  She isn’t feeling too wonderful about her pile of money!

Do you want to know one of the reasons so many women struggle with selling?

Women Feel Like They Are Stealing From Their Customers

 I kid you not.

Many women (maybe even YOU) want to help customers with your product or service.  In fact – sometimes you even feel BAD that you are charging customers! (admit it lady)

Somewhere along the line you were taught that SELLING IS BAD.  That salespeople are like bank robbers – always trying to rip people off.  And so deep down the thought of being in sales just makes you feel…like Bonnie from Bonnie and Clyde!

Well – Your Sales Diva is here to tell you – THAT JUST ISN”T SO!

Being in sales is an honorable way to earn a living.  In fact – anyone who has their own business is in SALES and MARKETING FIRST and whatever they sell SECOND.

Even dentists.  Even doctors. Even bankers. Even lawyers.  And everyone else you think “isn’t in sales”.

 WHY?

Because without SALES they have empty chairs, empty offices, and empty bank accounts too.

 So I think it’s time that you started seeing yourself as a sales professional in EVERY WAY don’t you? 

You’re doing good things for your customers and you deserve to be paid fairly for it.

 And you can definitely TAKE THAT to the bank.

 So there.

My friend Tricia – one of the co-creators of www.themarketingchefs.com – sent me a cool postcard in the mail from www.Hippopost.com – you can actually send FREE postcards (YES – I said FREE) to your Facebook connections or just to anyone in general.

How cool is that?  Have you picked yourself up off the floor yet??

 ”What’s The CATCH ” you may ask?

 The postcard has a small ad on it from another advertiser…in essence they were the ones who paid for your postcard AND the postage.  Try one for yourself so you can see.
