Join me and my guests, Lauren Bailey and Patricia McNair, who bring two very different perspectives to the Foster Care system and how it relates to the unsheltered/homeless epidemic. Foster Care and homelessness affect all of us. Become part of the solution, not part of the problem. What is wrong with our current Foster Care system? Where are the disconnects and gaps? How do these gaps lead to homeless youth? Lauren is a senior at Wayne State College in Wayne, Nebraska, majoring in Human Service Counseling. Her senior research project focused on the foster care system, and in an attempt to understand why the system is failing the children of America, she has decided to continue into a Master's program where she will become an advocate to find solutions for children in the foster care system. Beginning at age three and a half, Patricia spent many years in foster care. Too many to count. The system failed her, and ultimately, she became homeless. Her first-hand experience will shed light on how children are affected if they grow up in this environment. Watch Here: https://youtu.be/VvisnH9xoYQ

The #1 thing you can do is listen to game tape. Go listen to your calls, go listen to other people's calls. When you do so, I'd like you to get into the mind of your customer. Play the pause game, play anybody's call, pause, “What's the customer thinking right now?” and what would you do next? The goal, remember, is engagement. Getting that customer to open up, getting that prospect to talk to you and to share their needs and their challenges so that you can help solve a potential problem. If you listen to your game tape with that in mind, I think you'll come up with three or four instant action items that you can take to take your game to the next level. Not enough people are doing it. If you commit to your craft that way, you can soar to the top and stay there.”

To give the authority or power to do something…to make stronger and more confident- especially in controlling one's life and claiming one's rights. Let me ask you, who doesn't want to feel empowered? Who doesn't want to feel like they have more authority, power, confidence, strength…. Who just sent your kids off to college and pray that all these qualities have been built into their character so that they are ready to face the real world?! Today we talk with two amazing women who created Thrive Empowerment, a Center that supports the safety and resilience of ALL people! We're talking self defense backed by a curriculum that addresses the entire continuum of safety: violence prevention, assault resistance, healing in the aftermath… one of the comments in the interview that caught my attention is the idea that most self defense seems to prepare us for the rare occasions of violence and attack, where most of us need protected from the every day occurrences: such as setting appropriate boundaries in relationships, protecting ourselves from our inner bully, safety in our surroundings (this one is for all the runners out there who find themselves on backstreets or paths that might leave you vulnerable). Do you want to start equipping (empowering) ourselves, our children and grandchildren to understand personal safety and every day violence? Stay tuned…

Known on the speaker circuit for her “No B.S.” style and spunk, look for Lauren to make you laugh, keep things moving quickly, and help you take immediate action with her tactical tips. On today's episode, Lauren takes us through her journey as an inexperienced sales rep all the way to now, where she's proven to be a top coach in sales and a champion for women who've gotten stuck in the confidence gap- not feeling good enough to apply for jobs they qualify for. “This is a passion project. This is meaningful, this is changing people's lives. And it's awesome. It's really awesome. So, our mission is to change the face of sales, by helping more women earn leadership positions in sales.” Tune in to hear how Lauren is changing the face of sales and championing for more women leaders in the field! Quotes “We won't apply for the job until we know we can do the job perfectly even though we've never had that job before it doesn't make any sense, but this is what happens.”  “I don't know where it came from Christopher but out of nowhere I looked at him like, I'm really not interested in that, so if you'd like to have me join your company, I'd be happy to accept the sales management position. And I got it.”  “I'm going to help these women get trained for the job, and build their confidence to apply for the job, but it's working. Over 70% of our cohort every year has been promoted before the end of the six months.  “This is a passion project. This is meaningful, this is changing people's lives. And it's awesome. It's really awesome. So our mission is to change the face of sales, by helping more women earn leadership positions in sales.”  Links Lauren Bailey: LinkedIn Factor 8: LinkedIn Factor 8: Website #GirlsClub: Website   Empellor CRM: LinkedIn Empellor CRM: Website

Listeners, I am so excited to introduce all of you to Lindsey Ross and Lauren Bailey, co-founders of Thrive Empowerment! Thrive Empowerment offers trauma informed female led personal safety. Empowerment self-defense is different than any self-defense because it tries to meet people along the entire spectrum of violence. This includes violence prevention, understanding the resources and tools you have like your voice and body, as well as interruption defense, and the healing component. As both friends and business owners, the path to create Thrive Empowerment was spurred from both women's experience with domestic violence and mentally abusive relationships. This is a story of helping others realize that who you are and how you are raised has nothing to do with whether you can find yourself in an abusive relationship. It is about the right way to heal from an abusive relationship, and in the case of Lindsey and Lauren that healing was found through martial arts, self-defense, and finally Thrive Empowerment. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/everyday-badass/support

Ashleigh and Kasey talk to the Founder of Factor8 and Girls Club, Lauren Bailey, otherwise known as LB, about salary negotiations, justification, and perfectionism.SHOW NOTES#GirlsClub-Lauren spent 15 years in the inside sales industry, and as she grew, found she was one of the only women at the table. However, it wasn't until she started Factor8 and joined the Women Sales Pros group that she realized the power of female mentorship.-#GirlsClub helps women who want to get to the next level in their sales career achieve that goal by providing skill training, confidence boost, and a supportive community.Encouragement-A confidence gap exists between men and women, from promotions to salary negotiations, women are sure that if they work hard, they will get the promotion or the raise, but this isn't the case.-As a leader, you have a financial responsibility to your company, but women need the encouragement to negotiate. Teach them the skills to do that, and it will pay off, you won't lose them.-As a woman, start advocating for yourself, and don't be afraid to raise your hand if you want or need something.Justification-Finding a mentor seems like a daunting task, but you don't need a great reason to ask someone you admire a question or to send a connection request.-Lauren coaches women to get past this thinking by offering a community that encourages risk-taking. Women find their voices in a supportive environment and automatically connect with a mentor.Perfectionism-The most important thing to remember is that everybody makes mistakes, even the people you admire. It's okay to screw up.-Move past the shame of a mistake by being vulnerable. Speak about it and watch others do the same.-This is a moment that's highly intense for everyone. You might not want to speak about how you feel for fear of saying the wrong thing, but as long as you're earnest and open to learning, it's okay to mess it up. It's a part of the process.Connect with Girls Club-LinkedIn-WebsiteConnect with Lauren-LinkedInResources-The Confidence Gap-How to Have Impossible Conversations: A Very Practical Guide by James Lindsay and Peter BoghossianSend in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/othersideofsales/messageSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/othersideofsales/support

How to make an opening call? This COVID19 pandemic made a huge change in every business. When it comes to sales, the prospects hang up the calls when they hear from salespeople. Lauren has shared with us a few quick tips on how to make an opening call and engage a prospect. Swift Intro A great introduction is always short. Our introductions need to answer who we are, what do we want and why should they care? But right now selling during the pandemic, we have to add an important point. Why should they care right now? Why should they take your call right now? One of the biggest mistakes that we see in sales called introductions is that people immediately are leading with a pitch. The swift intro is all about adding value in those first couple seconds of the intro and we start with their names, then our name in an abbreviated version because we need to fit this in 10 seconds or less. Swift question Three swift questions should be asked followed by swift intro. The questions should be connected to each other to engage prospects and to show real care toward them. In this pandemic, the question should be like is everybody's still working from home? How many folks in your team? How's that been going? Three Goals The next step is to concentrate on the third goal which is the sales pitch. 1st goal is to introduce yourself and 2nd goal is to establish a human connection by asking the follow-up questions. That is a tremendous opportunity. Finally, the third goal is to pitch based on the scenario. It slows down your sales cycle, but it will work better if we keep it focused on the goal of building a relationship. To build a good relationship, don’t go for formal talk, share something personal with your prospects and allow them to feel comfortable to be open up. But most of the salespeople don’t do that. That is why Lauren teaches how to reframe the pitch to create empathy in this situation. She conducts the team engagement and development program. Three punches of team engagement and development (Meeting, training, call coaching) She adopts three punches for this program. Generally, if a leader wants to re-strategize the outreach, it's going to start with a meeting. But Lauren gives less emphasis on this part. She emphasizes training than a meeting. Training takes three or four times longer than just a meeting. It allows people to dig in and share their experiences, get their hands dirty or roll up their sleeves with the content they might role-play. A meeting is one way. Training is always two way. Now the third step of the three punches is to do some focused call coaching on these messages for the period after the training. This is where they engage their managers to follow up, to listen to calls, to give feedback along the way.

Lauren is the Founder of Factor 8, The Sales Bar, and #Girls Club, and she’s on a mission to help more people feel more successful at work. She's helping entry level salespeople conquer cold call confidence and preparing women for sales leadership positions in front-line management. After spending nearly 20 years launching and leading Inside sales organizations around the world, she started Factor 8 to help solve the problems she kept seeing: sales rep and sales managers woefully unprepared to sell over the phone. In this episode we discuss the pitfalls of inside sales, mentoring young salespeople and her work with Televerde, an orginzation that helps accelerate sales growth in companies AND helps prepare incarcerated women for their transition back to society. Lauren is bold, badass and driven to help women find their seat in the boardroom.

Despite being 51% of the population, women only make up 39% of the sales industry. Lauren Bailey, interviewed by John Golden, explores why there aren't more women in sales management roles, and how to change things. In this expert sales interview, Lauren Bailey discusses: The importance of having women as part of the sales force How risk plays a part Ways to integrate more women into managerial positions

There are two big mistakes we make in onboarding: too much or too little. Too little is having your reps come in for a two day's worth of onboarding. But that's not new hire training. That's orientation. Too much is trying to teach them everything. So, where's the sweet spot? That's what we're talking on today's episode of The Sales Engagement podcast. In this episode, we're welcoming back Lauren Bailey. You might remember Lauren, from Episode 35, where we talked about the right way to leave a sales voicemail. Lauren is the Founder of Factor 8, a company dedicated to building confidence with frontline sales reps and managers. She's also Founder of Sales Bar. And Girls Club. No big deal. Today Lauren shared her thoughts on what training for reps should look like. Here's what she had to say.

Inside sales expert Lauren Bailey has seen several factors contributing to the increasing need for inside sales teams: * The acceleration of product life cycles; companies have had to become quicker at gaining leads, qualifying opportunities and closing sales. * As margins have become slimmer, inside sales has made more sense. * The proliferation of the internet and technology has led to more of a “self-serve” environment. Listen in as host John Golden sits down with Lauren Bailey to discuss training for inside sales.

Join us with our guests, Katie Stewart, Director of Health Care Ratings and Lauren Bailey, Communications Manager Manager at The Leapfrog Group.

Founded in 2000 by large employers and other purchasers, The Leapfrog Group is a national nonprofit organization driving a movement for giant leaps forward in the quality and safety of American health care. Working with the nation's best patient safety experts, The Leapfrog Group provides an opportunity for hospitals to measure the results of their efforts to improve patient care.

Sales is a confidence sport. You're beat up all day long with rejections, and it can discouraging until you get that one successful sale that gets you hooked. That feeling of success is what gets Lauren Bailey out of bed every morning. Not so much feeling it herself, but helping other sales professionals feel successful more often in their work. Lauren is the President of Factor8 and Founder of the new e-learning platform The Sales Bar. She found her sweet spot in helping sales professionals love the job more by training them to be successful selling over the phone. Email is a comfortable barrier for a lot of sales professionals, but when you skip the sales calls you miss out opportunities for personal connection and engagement. Lauren walks us through what kills confidence the most when it comes to leaving voicemails and how to do it right to see a 50% improvement in call backs.
