If the word "sales" makes you feel uneasy - filling your stomach with butterflies instead of excitement, you're not alone. Many entrepreneurs struggle with the idea of selling, often associating it with pushy tactics or feeling "salesy." But what if I told you that the key to transforming your sales isn't about learning a new technique but instead embracing a mindset shift for sales? This shift is all about reimagining what sales can look like when it's aligned with your values and personality. Instead of feeling like a chore or something to be avoided, selling can become a fun, enjoyable, and authentic part of your business. In this episode, Renee and I talk through five essential mindset shifts that have not only transformed my approach to sales but have also helped countless others turn their sales process into a natural, fulfilling experience. By the end of this, you'll see that sales isn't just about transactions—it's about building relationships, having fun, and staying true to yourself. 0:01:42 - Biggest lesson learned from selling a cherry juice business (and then taking a 5-year break after having her child!)0:04:14 - Renee is having the most fun in business.

How to “Henry Ford” Your Sales ProcessIf you are spending more than 30% of your working hours trying to figure out what to post, how to connect with potential clients, connectors or collaborators and creating proposals FAST, you need to consider this.Henry Ford was the epitome of innovation. He did not invent the engine or the car or even the assembly line... what he DID do was improve on the process. We know him from his Model T car that made car ownership accessible to the masses.Did you know there was a Model A, B, C. . . all the way up to "T"?That shows he had the willingness to get things wrong. He had the willingness to keep trying and improving.Henry Ford was an innovator. That is what I am encouraging you to be for your own sales process for your business.In other words:1. Use what you have in front of you (like the content of the businesses you want to connect with)2. Re-use what you have already used (like the interview you did last Winter about productivity)3. Create templates for everything! If you have made it ONCE (an email, a proposal, an invoice, a contract) CREATE a template out of it so that the NEXT time you want to create an email, proposal, invoice or contract, you are not starting from scratch.I live by this motto "I reserve the right to always make this better" this gives me permission to START without it being "PERFECT".By knowing that I will always be seeking to INNOVATE and improve the PROCESS I have MORE time to focus on the PERSON in front of me. Whether it's developing a genuine business relationship or delivering a promised service or product. SYSTEMS cut down TASK time and OPEN MORE TIME for authentic connection and time to be creative!If all of this brought up more questions than answers, we should hang out more!Grab my free Sales training and START TODAY at http://www.reneehribar.co/training*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

The Problem with “Blinders” ... it reminds me of a story I would share with my sales teams.Have you ever said “I'm just going to put blinders on and work through this”?My grandmother used to say “keep your nose in the books” and to me that translated to “just focus on what YOU'RE doing” (a.k.a don't get distracted)!!The goal is to get “it” done but...You also need to know when it's time to stop.If you don't have a sales goal — you don't know when it's time to stop.If you don't have anyone looking out for you (watching out for your blind spots) — you don't know when it's time to stop.If you don't have something to look forward to ONCE you are “done” - you don't know when it's time to stop.I have been an entrepreneur — running my own profitable companies— since 1996.I have sold millions of dollars in “invisible” services for BIG companies and private startups alike. I have taught thousands of freelancers (web designers, virtual assistants, ads managers) to sell for themselves with confidence and kindness.One pattern repeats itself over and over - you've got to know “when” enough is enough.Write down a sales goal.Hire someone you trust to cover your blind spots.Have an “Next Steps” plan.If you need help, start here: www.reneehribar.com/linksYou don't have to do this alone.*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

Getting Visible VS. Converting Visibility into Paying ClientsLet's continue the conversation → www.reneehribar.co/trainingThe age-old debate!!When we first start out (or are pivoting) it's easy to feel like the BEST KEPT SECRET.Often times this is the reason we accept as the TRUTH that we are not getting the clients our business needs to thrive.To avoid spending 100% of your time on sales activities focus on ONE piece of content each week.My BEST advice:One Piece of ANCHOR CONTENT each week.a.

I'm talking to a few other peoplec.

Escape the Waiting Game: Your Answer to Proposal LimboI sent the proposal but haven't heard back...--> There are a few key strategies that work.1. Deadline with the proposal. “This offer at this price is valid through________”2. Set up a quick check-in call before the initial Discovery call is over if you have not accepted payment over the phone already. Law of Diminishing intent — once you hang up that phone the ROI depreciates daily.3. Asking different questions before and during a Discovery call. For example: If you were to find the perfect solution, what is the timeline? (They May say “well, we'd like to start in January” — then that would change my deadline)Deadlines are meant to help bring in consistent work for you so that you have enough to support your growing company but not too much at once where you are scrambling to deliver on time and having to hire temporary contractors who may not have been vetted properly.If you are a woman business owner who is ready to connect with new paying clients and deliver stellar results again and again but have tried selling and it just didn't work for you . . . it's not your fault.You probably didn't have the right person explain it to you!Take the next step TODAY and grab my free sales training: https://www.reneehribar.co/training*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

What Innovators Do That Others Completely Miss (the cure for “average”) INNOVATION: What is it? It's the ability to look at what you already have in a new way. We often don't need more skills, or more raw materials. What we need to do is step back and reevaluate what we HAVE and look at it from a NEW perspective. I'll take you through an exercise I do with my clients regularly:What do you want the outcome to be? What is it currently? What do you already have to work with? This last one is the REAL key to innovation. It's not INVENTION. There are plenty of inventors out there that never see their beautiful, amazing, incredible invention put to use. With innovators — the USE (outcome) is already built in.

The BIG MISTAKES To Avoid When Asking Questions I say this ALL of the time "Good salespeople have a good pitch. Great salespeople ASK Great Questions" If you are the ONLY person actively selling for your business, it's time to get GREAT at this. Ultimately, getting GREAT at asking questions will help on every phone call you are ever host but also on every sales page ever written and every social post or email ever created. ASKING GREAT QUESTIONS takes some thought and preparation. Approaching the Discovery Phase of the Sales Process Avoid these Mistakes: AVOID Sticking to the boring old, stale and predictably typical questions like "What are You Struggling With?" AVOID Taking their answer at face value *Chances are they are NOT going to just hand over the FULL picture PLUS HOW they explain their problem is often NOT how YOU would explain it. They might use incorrect verbiage and VERY LIKELY it could sound like one thing when really... it's something TOTALLY different -- let's AVOID that HERE. AVOID Attaching YOUR Emotions to THEIR Issues. You are there to help IF you can, and if not, no problem, you can refer them or something else (there are endless possibilities here).

Facebook is not showing posts on your page to many people anymore.Facebook ads are expensive and unreliable. Plus, what if your ad account gets shut down?!? Where is Facebook putting their attention? They are putting it on GROUPS. I have been told many many many times over how much everyone loves my Facebook group.

Getting Visible VS. Converting Visibility into Paying ClientsThe age-old debate!!When we first start out (or are pivoting) it's easy to feel like the BEST KEPT SECRET.Oftentimes this is the reason we accept as the TRUTH that we are not getting the clients our business needs to thrive.To avoid spending 100% of your time on sales activities, focus on ONE piece of content each week.My BEST advice:1. One Piece of ANCHOR CONTENT each week.Which would you do as your anchor content?a.Podcastb.Blogc.LIVE Videod.Something else2. Have you been getting people on the phone but not converting them into paying clients?Have they said things like:a. That's expensiveb. I'm talking to a few other peoplec. Send me some informationIt's possible the way you are explaining the VALUE is the core of the issue.Overall, it's about creating a RHYTHM to give value and inviting.Everyone is at a different point in their buying cycle and more than anything CONSISTENCY is KEY.

Stop being sales-y (and still sell more)1.Stop being the person who ONLY writes an email, posts on social, or sends a PM when you are selling something. 2.Give value (I went deeply into this on The “S” Word LIVE show today) The fact is, you know more about the particular thing you work through with your clients than your audience does right now. Even though it IS IMPORTANT that your students learn the breadth and depth of the solution eventually, for TODAY, in your email and on your social posts you are granted permission to give a summary (*that's all your audience has the bandwidth for most of the time anyway). 3.Invite. Yes, as time goes on, it is IMPERATIVE to invite your audience (whether there are 50 or 50,000 of them) to hear about how you work with your clients. That could look like an introduction post, a flash sale or a private message to hear about something you haven't released to the public yet and they will be the first to check it out. Here is the BEST news yet: You can take the pressure off because not everyone is going to become a client. BOOM - there I said it.*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

The #1 Difference Between Gross and Awesome Selling TacticsThere are a thousand ways to make money and whether it's a DM or a funnel or an ad or a webinar or a VSL or a Free CHALLENGE, there will always be a segment of the market that does it GROSS and others that do it really well and everyone LOOVES it.So what's the difference between GROSS and awesome?For me, no matter which method I use, it always always always always starts with my true INTENTION.After selling millions of dollars in products and services for companies like AT&T, Intuit (Quickbooks), Quill, starting my own beverage company, and now (my retirement years) consulting businesses to sell authentically, I know there is no single “tactic” that is the “silver bullet”.At least not if you want lasting, reliable, “lay my head on the pillow with a clear conscience” business.To call it “social selling” isn't even correct IMHO. DM selling is very different than social selling. Social selling is not new or trending. Social selling is as old as the hills (citing: How to Win Friends and Influence People and he learned it from his grandfather!!)What makes one method work for someone and not another .... ??I would say ask yourself “what makes one pick-up line work for one person and not another?”A thousand factors... right?If you are reaching out on any platform (even text /BOT/ email/ it's not JUST DM's where this can be a problem) ....It's easy when as marketers we look at DATA and forget the HUMAN that makes up that dot on the matrix.My best advice if you've been on either side of something that makes you feel GROSS and are now wary of any sales activities ...Set an intention to be KIND .... (my belief is if you are here, you ARE genuinely kind)What I to use to try to imagine that everyone is a child of someone, a neighbor, a sister or brother, a spouse... and know that everyone is dealing with something right now that has absolutely nothing to do with you, a product, a service, or anything that you may ever know about. This softens the energy and allows us to really tune in so that we are not coming off wrong.When you treat them like you'd want your grandmother to be treated it will all work out, I promise.So if you had an idea to message someone .... check in with yourself “what's my intention” if it's genuine, then do it!If it's “try” to get the sale ... think again.... everyone can smell it and it's not pretty.If you are struggling with the fact that you REALLY DO want the sale and need a way to cleanse your intention and get back to your true self, I have a practice that has worked for thousands of “social sellers” who were about to go into DM's, get on a sales call, host a webinar, or step out on stage that they say has made ALL the difference.Take the next step TODAY and grab my free sales training at www.ReneeHribar.co/training.************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway!! I challenge you to try these 3 ACTIONS!! Business women come to me to gain, sharpen and hone their professional sales skills. I give them my BEST strategies and scripts custom to them and STILL they often need one.more.thing. To get OVER the FEAR. Fear of rejection is real. It goes back to the beginning of time, when rejection meant DEATH. ☠️ That's pretty serious. I will tell you more one day about the "Caveman Theory of Fear" -- it's an old, deep-seeded fear that is, if we do not gain social acceptance, we will be shunned by the "tribe" and starve or be eaten . . . EEK!! I told you it was serious. But there is a way through this FEAR. I have lots of exercises and guidance around fear. It has the power to stop even the BEST, most qualified women from excelling and reaching those who truly NEED THEM.

What NOT to Do with a ReferralThere are some tell-tale symptoms that you might have the “common cold” when it comes to accepting referrals. . .I am giving you some advice you can take ACTION on today on The "S" Word LIVE Show!!I love referrals. If you are selling a service like coaching or website design, virtual administrative services, or some combination of these, I am talking to you.Referrals sent to you for your work like building a website, managing social media accounts, creating funnels, writing sales pages, coaching, and strategy sessions are a clear sign that you are AMAZING at what you do.However, I have learned that not everyone has the same process for connecting with referrals as I do.My process is painless. . . let me share with you what I mean exactly!Have you ever experienced this scenario:“I got a referral from ______We had a good call.I sent the proposal but I haven't heard back.”If this has ever happened to you, I want you to know, it's not your fault!!Most other coaches just don't have the experience in this very specific (and very important) part of business. As for me, I've built an entire career at this EXACT juncture.This is where the rubber meets the road. Without this exact piece humming like a fine-tuned machine, there will be a LOT of potential clients (even rock-solid referrals) that will simply hire someone else.There is a LOT of BAD advice out there around this.Some BAD advice I heard this week:“You just need to get 100 No's”“You have to get REALLY good at overturning objections”Not true either.and the worst advice . . . ❌"just keep following up" UGH!!!!What I teach is VERY different. I teach how to ask better questions. This is where it gets fun and a TRUE connection happens. This preserves the relationship and KEEPS the door open and a VERY specific road back to you.Take the next step TODAY and grab my free sales traininghttps://www.reneehribar.co/training*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.
