SHOW NOTES: On this show...we aren't giving up but staying in there; focused and moving forward as we master the art of being politely persistent instead of pushy. Now that may come easy to you...OR you might be conjuring up a memory of being walked over, easily discounted, bossy, and demanding. Whichever seems like more your speed, finding a delicate balance can be difficult. Not to fear, we are going to walk through these behaviors to trying on what works best for you. The important part to remember is that you are in control of your own actions and reactions and that being your best and giving your all, is up to you. So many times we're easily detoured at the first sign of resistance or we barrel through unannounced and unaware making sure the outcome is in our favor.  I've been in sales my whole adult life but even before I acquired those skills, I was born with a few of my own. The gift of gab, natural-born negotiation, and not easily accepting the word no. Yes, that one got me in trouble more than once. One of the things you learn as a salesperson is that “no” just means not now or that you might need to finesse your value proposition to better match the client's needs, but that's for another show.  You also learn that being pushy or aggressive will get you shut down and shut out which is not a good place to be when you rely on a prospective client's purchases today and in the future. So it's imperative that you find a balance, persistent but not pushy. I had a client tell me that about myself one time. I think I apologized for continuing to push him and he said “you are politely persistent, not pushy”.  What a relief and it's something that has stuck with me since.  Alex Smirnov gives us the Top 6 Lessons You'll Learn from Working in Sales found at badgermapping.com   Here's an example of his technique found at changingminds.org   Z.Hereford explains The Power of Persistence found at essentiallifeskills.net   Carolyn Steber sheds a light on 9 Habits You Don't Realize Can Make You Seem Overbearing found at bustle.com Carolyn Steber sheds a light on 9 Habits You Don't Realize Can Make You Seem Overbearing found at bustle.com   We are going to finish up with 6 Ways to Persuade Without Being Pushy from Kevin Daum found at inc.com   KEY HIGHLIGHTS - We “sell” in everything we do. We sell people on our ideas, we negotiate terms, we follow up, and we close deals.  Developing networking and strong interpersonal skills early helps you get ahead in every area of life. By listening more than you talk, you learn how to ask the right questions at the right time.   Only you can move you, forward. One of the ways you can prepare for setbacks and obstacles is to anticipate potential problems and have a contingency plan. When we are overwhelmed with a problem or difficulty, we don't have time to develop the persistence necessary to deal with a particular obstacle or setback. Despite any old adage you may have heard and believed, you can always learn something new. It can be tough to tell the difference between true assertiveness and habits that come off as too pushy, since they can both deal with getting what you want, telling people what you think, and having things go your way. When people are being assertive [...] they are expressing their needs in direct, open, honest ways while still being respectful of the other person's needs and preferences  You have to put yourself out there again and again. The best way to improve is to fail. You'll learn from your mistakes and become better CHALLENGE: be willing to commit to self-discovery as you become more aware of what you think, how you react, and how it's perceived. Be diligent in your pursuit making polite persistence the goal instead of pushy. I Know YOU Can Do It!

Kevin Daum is an award-winning and bestselling author of 5 books. He is a marketer, speaker, and columnist for Inc.com and Smart Business Magazine. On this episode, Kevin and I dive into one of his books, ROAR! Get Heard in the Sales and Marketing Jungle. What does ROAR mean and how is it useful? Kevin says the idea behind ROAR came from seeing so much noise in the marketing space and how advertisements and other marketing pieces would all just fall so flat. Everybody has a story to tell and most people simply do not care. However, with ROAR, Kevin addresses two of the above issues. The first one speaks to how you can tell your story in a compelling way. You may have fantastic ideas for the world, but the reality is the world is not about you. Boasting about how great you are will rarely generate good results. However, telling a great story has to start with empathy. What is the pain that you're solving? There are three core emotional motivators people will buy on: logic, greed, and fear. The most powerful of those three is fear. The weakest is logic. A perfect example of this is our current presidential election. How are the candidates selling? They are selling fear. To achieve massive growth, it's not about the customers you currently have; it's about the ideal customers that you want. When you've found the optimal customer that you're looking for, what is their pain that you have yet to address? If you're able to communicate that pain to them on the level of empathy, that becomes a magnet to them. Once you've gotten your ideal customer to realize they have a pain point and they have connected to it emotionally, the next step is to address that pain point objectively. What is the solution? When you present it objectively, it starts a conversation. Do not try to sell the solution at this point in the process, all the customer needs to realize is that there is a solution for their problem and that you have the answers to it. What does this mean for the end-goal sale? When the customer becomes aware that there is a solution, the sell becomes an easier conversation to handle. By trying to convince them off the bat that they need your service, and only your service, their guard is up and they are unlikely to pursue you further.   Interview Links: www.kevindaum.com More Resources: ScalingUpBusiness.com:  Learn about how growth coaching can help you and and your business see big results.
