Corporate training can significantly enhance personal development. Authenticity in sales leads to better client relationships. Sales is about helping people, not just closing deals. Many people feel awkward during sales interactions. A great boss can make a significant difference in corporate life. Transitioning to entrepreneurship requires careful planning and confidence. Sales training can help individuals become more comfortable in their roles. Building genuine connections can lead to long-term business relationships. Sales is an honorable profession that serves to help others. A lot of it's confidence, right? People have self-limiting beliefs around mixing business with personal. You got to get into action and go do something. The easy stuff doesn't pop into their head. You need four hours a day of Go Live dialogue. The best way to do business is through referrals. You just have to do it. Every experience teaches you something. You can turn your business around if you just do the things. You have to find something that fits you.

Whether you are a sales leader, a sales person, a lawyer or even an economist, sales is at the centre of everything you do. Nothing happens unless a sale is made, whether that be a product, a service or even an idea - but how we go about selling can be very different. Some people take the hard approach and seek to push an idea or a solution onto a customer or prospect, whilst others take a softer approach. Whilst both methods can deliver results, the guest on this episode passionately believes that through taking a softer approach, through being authentic, selling a problem before a solution and ethically persuading through social proof, we can deliver sustainable results. I'm thrilled to be joined on this episode by Dr.Yaniv Zaid, Doctor Persuasion, as he shares his experiences and expertise on authentic and ethical selling and persuasion. It is a tremendous conversation, filled with gold nuggets for every person looking to improve their influence and persuasion, and therefore driving exceptional results.

When the pressure to close deals overshadows the desire to connect with others, sales can feel uncomfortable. The traditional, salesy approach creates a sense of inauthenticity that affects how we sell and leaves people feeling skeptical.   Authenticity is about being genuine, transparent, and focusing on building relationships rather than just closing deals. We need to understand the unique needs of our audience and communicate the value of our product or service in a way that resonates with them on a personal level.   How do we get comfortable selling while still providing value? How does being authentic help us to network and build our businesses?   In this episode, Authenticity Strategist Inga Faison-Cavitt joins me to talk about what it means to be authentic when selling, why we need to get more comfortable when selling and where she gets the perseverance to figure things out.   I believe that questions are the answers. -Dana Malstaff   3 Things You'll Learn in This Episode   -Get comfortable selling How do we shift our mindset on selling?    -Why women feel uncomfortable selling What makes sales feel so uncomfortable?   -How to make people feel valued How do we build the know, like and trust factor and provide value to those we sell to?     Guest Bio   Inga Faison-Cavitt, AKA Ingafay, is an Authenticity Strategist.

How To Unmask Authentic Selling #508 When I was new to selling I read a number of books on closing techniques and objection handling. I took their advice to craft scripts to memorize them like an actor in the theatre. It was a weak approach. The buyers never said the lines I expected and often I was dumbfounded about what to say. In this week's Tao of Sales Babble we cast off the scripts and unmask to discover our authentic you, the person buyers want to meet, trust, and do business with.  Authentic selling is the topic for today.  Sales Babble shares selling secrets for non-sellers.  Masterful selling is understanding what buyers want, discerning if you can help,  showing what you have and helping them to make a decision that is good for their business and yours. See https://salesbabble.com I've interviewed 100s of sales experts and discuss all things sales: prospecting, qualifying, value propositions, presentations, demos, closing, generating referrals, earning references, upselling, marketing, lead generation, copywriting, and most important the right selling mindset. Stop fearing sales and embrace it. This is a production of Habanero Media https://habaneromedia.net

Welcome back to The Win Rate Podcast! Today Andy welcomes two incredible guests, Mark Hunter, (the Sales Hunter), renowned sales speaker, consultant, and author. And Jeff Bajorek, Chief Revenue Officer at Orases. sales trainer, and advisor for B2B sales leaders.The group kicks off the conversation talking about the importance of realizing that every customer feels that they and their company are unique, and discuss the best way to exhibit both your depth of experience and your ability to connect personally to close deals. They talk about the inherent tension in sales conversations and how casting a wide net can dilute the context and effectiveness of each prospect. They explore the fear that salespeople may have in creating the appropriate tension and the misconceptions that often surround the sales process.Mark and Jeff share their insights on the importance of qualifying leads and creating relationships with customers that build trust, remove risk, and make clients feel safe with you. Andy agrees and remarks that while AI will be able to emulate many things, there are these human elements that are irreplaceable. They challenge the notion that every lead should be moved to close and they all agree that an overcrowded pipeline is a leading cause of low win rates (Even though there is often pressure to keep filling your pipeline).Mark, Jeff, and Andy all bring insightful personal experiences from their deep sales experience to this episode. Most of it boils down to some simple things. Be patient enough to educate and often re-educate your customer, be open, be human, be curious, and be likable. Connect with Jeff and Mark on LInkedInHost Andy Paul is the expert on modern B2B selling and author of three best-selling, award-winning sales books, including his latest Sell Without Selling Out.

In this episode of No BS Sales School, Walker McKay emphasizes the importance of understanding prospects' opinions and past experiences before offering any advice or solutions. Sharing a personal anecdote about a friend's house fire, the podcast illustrates the need for salespeople to slow down, ask relevant questions, and fully comprehend the prospect's needs, fears, and expectations. By putting themselves in the prospect's shoes and tailoring solutions accordingly, sales professionals can build trust and credibility.HIGHLIGHTS QUOTES"Sales is the most lucrative skill in the world. Period.""Most sales advice out there today is outdated, cheesy, and can even keep you from getting the deals that can make all the difference in your career.""You need to understand your prospect's opinions about their situation before you offer advice.""Our job as good consultative salespeople is to completely understand where somebody's coming from.""Don't go solving a problem until you fully understand this person's perspective on the problem."Where to find Walker:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/walkermckay/Twitter: https://twitter.com/walkermckayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nobssalesschool/Free Training Course: http://www.7salesmistakes.com/Website: https://www.walkermckay.com/

Welcome to the Selling from the Heart podcast with Darrell Amy and Larry Levine as they chat with Dan Dominguez, the Chief Growth Officer at the WHY Institute. Selling from the heart is all about being authentic to your prospects and clients.Dan shares his thoughts on the indicators that show you are successful in selling from the heart. Conversations that flow naturally are the start of great relationships, and even if you are not a good fit today, that relationship keeps you top of your mind for future opportunities.Dan's favorite thing to ask is what gets you excited today? This works externally with clients but also internally with your sales team. Knowing a person's WHY OS provides insight into what is important to them, their strengths, and how you can most effectively work with them to reach common goals.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESAim to start a relationship, not close a sale - Dan: "When we're having a great sales conversation with either a prospect or a current client, that conversation just flows and at the end when you get to the part as Mark Hunter likes to say when you get to start the relationship, not close the sale when you get to the start of the relationship, it's almost like, hey, how do we get started?"Each team member has different strengths that leaders need to figure out - Dan: "You've got a sales leader and he's got all different kinds of people on his or her team, and they've got to figure out okay, what are their strengths? And you talk to each of them differently. So you're going to talk to Larry differently than you're going to talk to Darrell." Connect with Dan:LinkedIn | EmailLearn more about Darrell and Larry: Darrell | Larry | Website Got a video about how you sell from the heart?

We become inauthentic when we try to persuade people.When you're in the energy of trying to “get” someone to believe you and to buy your thing, it becomes too easy to say whatever you think the other person wants to hear. You lose your grounding and integrity.Instead, what if you sell only to people who will quickly understand the value of what you're selling?Discuss:https://youtu.be/9tQ3CusWAyE

Nebras Hayek's incredible career in marketing throughout multiple industries is the result of her high-powered mindset and can-do attitude.  Though she has worked in a number of interesting places, Nebras got into healthcare marketing partly through the connections she made while hosting events for various healthcare related groups.In addition to her intensive day job, she is also an active military combat engineer in North Carolina, a position which on top of everything else demonstrates her love for challenges.  Nebras started out at Gentell as a regional manager covering only a few states but rapidly ascended to assistant vice president of the company, covering all 49 states.  Her significant experience in senior care has shown that progress is best made through building authentic connections and establishing dependability and trust with others in the industry.  Senior care faces a lot of current challenges. While the largest issue may be staffing, census is still a very high priority problem for many facilities.So what can a nursing home do to fix its census?Nebras advises that before judging that a nursing home is struggling, you need to go in, find out what's actually going on, and only target that specific issue rather than making a lot of large irreversible changes.She states that some major points to be examined and evaluated are the facility's current Medical Director and the actions of its Admission Directors.Medical Directors are supposed to be representatives and advocates for their facility. They should be ready to fix the problems they encounter or delegate the process of fixing.It is important to check in regularly with Admission Directors and find out what they are doing. Ask what challenges they are facing, who they are marketing to, and what's happening with referrals.  Lastly, when asked about the relevance of social media for both facility and vendors in senior care, Nebras states that, for both of these parties, the more recognition and familiarity the better. This is best done through authentic video content which is more informative than pictures. FOLLOW NEBRASEmailLinkedIn RELATED EPISODESEp. 79: Smart Hiring for Nursing HomesEp. 69: Should Nursing Homes Be On TikTok?Ep. 62: Social Media Marketing for Nursing Homes

Can there be such a thing as being authentic in sales? Our guest, Ronnell Richards is an entrepreneur who spent over two decades in sales. He has been a producer, has built and led sales organizations in tech and telecom, and he runs a very successful sales training business. His upcoming book, https://www.shutthehellupandsell.com/ (Shut The Hell Up And Sell )puts forward a vision of selling that is based on building genuine relationships and meeting your client needs. Ronnell's belief is that successful long-term sales careers are based on constantly delivering more value to your clients than what you are getting in return, the exact opposite position of the traditional myth of the great negotiator as someone who captures an overwhelming majority of the value. KEY TAKEAWAYS   [02:32] – In general, salespeople often get a bad rap, and at its best, sales is one of the most authentic disciplines. [04:13] - I ask Ronnell to introduce himself, tell us where he came from, and where he is now. [08:26] - Ronnell had the opportunity to identify a very valuable talent.

[21:58] - It took years for the lightbulb to go off and realized there was no repeat customers. [25:37] - The track to becoming a sales leader starts with becoming a successful seller. [29:14] - You must start by managing and leading people as individuals. Get with them on their level and understand what matters to them. [31:52] - Ronnell encourages sellers to be active on social media and to be their authentic selves on social media. [33:08] - The key to long-term success in business, is connecting with people. [38:21] - At the end of the day, it's not just about what is good for the customer but also for your business. [40:17] - It all comes back to building great relationships with people you have great alignment with. [41:00] - I ask Ronnell if he has a hobby or interest outside his work. [41:50] - Ronnell shares the business expression that drives him crazy. [42:21] - Food for the Body or Food for the Soul. [43:59] - Thank you and closing remarks.
