Podcasts about sales strategies

Hello everyone, I'm your host, Jillian, and today I interviewing copywriter, Samantha Burmeister. We're talking about the importance of effective messaging to set yourself apart from the competition as a blogger in 2024. The Potential of Digital Products and Services In the podcast, I also introduce the concept of pivoting to selling digital products and services as a way to boost your blog income. One tool that I highly recommend for this is the MiloTreeCart. This user-friendly tool allows you to set up memberships, digital downloads, workshops, coaching, and mini-courses with ease.

Samantha and I discuss the importance of getting visitors and customers to understand the "why" behind the content. This "why" can drive actions such as joining an email list, taking action on blog posts, and making purchases on sales pages. We also touched on the role of AI in copywriting and the significance of brevity, authority, and selling the transformation. Samantha explains the difference between content and copywriting, stating that content is written for computers and focuses on discovery, while copywriting is about understanding the audience's needs and desires and crafting compelling messaging to inspire action. The Power of Offering Value Samantha stresses the importance of offering valuable content to capture email addresses and generate leads. She emphasized the need to provide immediate value and ensure that the freebie or content offered aligns with the paid products or services being promoted in the future. She also addressed the hesitation some people, especially women, feel when it comes to selling and promoting their offerings. Samantha encourages them to overcome this mindset and view selling as a way to serve and help others. The Role of Emotions in Purchasing Decisions We discussed the role of emotions in purchasing decisions. Samantha confirmed that people often buy based on emotions and then justify their purchase afterwards. I shared an example of buying a purse because it sparked my interest, even though I later justified it by saying I needed it for a wedding or a job interview. The Use of AI in Copywriting We also discussed the differences between using AI for content and AI for copy. When using AI for content, it can aggregate information from the internet to answer specific questions or provide recommendations. However, when it comes to copywriting, it's important to understand the desired transformation or outcome that the audience wants. I shared my approach to using AI for copywriting. I prompt my AI, ChatGPT, to be a world-class copywriter who understands human psychology. By setting up the AI with this prompt, I can then ask it to generate sales copy that will lead to the desired transformation for my target audience. Brevity and Authority in Sales Pages Samantha discussed the importance of brevity and authority in sales pages. She advises against using blocks of text, except for the about section, as people are usually more interested in knowing what they will get from the sales page. However, she acknowledges that the about section can help build authority and humanize the product being sold. I agree with Samantha's points and suggest that imposter syndrome can be overcome by putting yourself out there confidently. I emphasize the need to establish trust and authority in the sales pitch, even if you don't have formal qualifications in the field. Conclusion To sum up, the key takeaways from the episode are the need to communicate authority, establish a personal connection, and guide customers on a transformative journey.

HIllary is going to challenge a mindset you may not even know you had. Michelle Cherian is next. I am starting to feel like we should have named this series How to Think Differently instead of What to Do Instead because MIchelle also completely opened my mind to a revenue stream I had never considered before.

Your marketing sucks... respectfully, maybe? But let's talk about the reasons it may be failing you and what you can do about it.Think of the "best practices" in marketing and business that you hold in high regard as foundational pieces to how you do marketing and business in the first place. When was the last time you actually evaluated them? Is that information relevant to where you are now and driving results home for you? What about the people, business, and resources you learn from and base many of your implementations, strategies, martech stack, and timelines on when both evaluating the market and your business? When was the last time you assessed the relevancy of those sources in today's modern era of marketing and business operations?Think of this episode as a mental questionnaire and checklist to reevaluate the core sources that influence how you look and do marketing. Hopefully, it sparks curiosity to explore and optimize it for better results and outcomes. Beyond The Episode Gems:Learn About My New Business Venture: S3M - Where We're Driving Inclusive Marketing & DEIB Integrations ForwardDiscover All of the Podcats on the HubSpot Podcast NetworkGet Free HubSpot Marketing Tools To Help You Grow Your Business Grow Your Business Faster Using HubSpot's CRM PlatformBook A Time To Hire Me To Help You Scale Your Business#####Support The Podcast & Connect With Troy: • Rate & Review iDigress: iDigress.fm/Reviews•  Follow Troy's LinkedIn @FindTroy• Get Strategy Solutions & Services: FindTroy.com•  Buy Troy's Book, Strategize Up: StrategizeUpBook.com•  Follow Troy's Instagram @FindTroy

ABOUT THE GUESTFrom Fortune 1000 Sales to Successful Entrepreneur: Mary Grothe is a masterful, inspirational storyteller. Her Keynotes, crafted effortlessly between her professional and personal worlds, will give listeners an in-depth look into how she achieves worldly success, yet overcomes the dark side of the pursuit of over-achievement.If asked what problem she solves, Mary would reply, "enslavement", referring to people who worship things of this world: fame, money, titles, and achievements, and lose their souls to gain earthly success. Her words are for the lost, the weary, the lukewarm Christians, and the Christian-curious. SHOW SUMMARYJoin hosts Larry Levine and Darrell Amy on the Selling from the Heart podcast as they engage in a deeply insightful conversation with Mary Grothe about her journey navigating professional success while addressing the dark side that often accompanies it. Mary shares her poignant story, revealing how her success in sales was intertwined with personal struggles and the quest for fulfillment. Her recently published book, Destination Remarkable: Surviving the Dark Side of Success, explores these intricate facets, shedding light on the importance of inner healing, spirituality, and separating one's identity from external achievements. The conversation uncovers invaluable insights for high-performance sales professionals facing similar challenges, emphasizing the necessity of inner work for genuine success.KEY TAKEAWAYSSuccess in sales can sometimes be a mask for personal struggles; acknowledging inner turmoil is crucial for true fulfillment.The pursuit of success can stem from a need to fill emotional voids or past inadequacies, leading to an insatiable hunger for achievements.Separating one's identity from professional accomplishments is essential for mental and emotional well-being.Spirituality and finding a deeper sense of purpose are instrumental in achieving true fulfillment and overcoming the dark side of success.QUOTES"I had destination addiction because no matter how good my performance was, it was never good enough.""I was trying to heal inside of myself. And the success became the drug and the addiction and the hit felt great. The high, I wanted it all the time.""Our world focuses on the hustle and the grind, and the 'do whatever it takes to win' mentality. That's not transferable to any average person to pick up my playbook and do it.""I have been living my life so backward. My understanding of my worth, my North star, the source I'm plugging into. I got right there.""There's so much freedom on the other side of that, when we're not tied to that [external success]."Learn more about Mary Grothe: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marygrothe/Learn more about Darrell and Larry: Darrell's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darrellamy/Larry's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larrylevine1992/Website: https://www.sellingfromtheheart.net/ Got a video about how you sell from the heart?

In this episode, Nicky Parker immerses us in the world of customer interviews, unveiling their significance for executives seeking genuine insights. Beyond relying on metrics like Net Promoter Score, Nicky emphasises the need for structured conversations, cautioning against the limitations of digital surveys that often capture only extreme sentiments. Discovering the real meaning behind customer data is an art, and Nicky underscores the transformative power of third-party agencies in turning disgruntled customers into raving fans. Third-party involvement takes emotion out of the equation and fosters objective discussions, ensuring a more nuanced understanding. For those opting to conduct interviews themselves, Nicky advises keen observation for unspoken cues, highlighting the importance of what customers don't say. Buyer and customer interviews have the potential to break down internal barriers and unveil unexpected product uses, providing invaluable insights for business growth. Nicky advocates letting customers take the lead in conversations. Post interview, sharing findings becomes a crucial step, making customers feel heard and valued. Offboarding interviews are a key opportunity for learning and improvement. Customer understanding, Nicky asserts, is a collective responsibility, urging board members to take an active role. True customer-centric success involves empathy, walking in your customer's shoes to really understand their struggles.  Nicky explains how focus groups can really help refine your message. The episode concludes with a thought-provoking question.   Nicky can be contacted at LinkedIn or via email: info@bangconsulting.co.uk   Test your Sales Strategy: https://bit.ly/SalesStrategyTest

The product would be so great that people could just come in and use it."[00:10:59] "We see a huge opportunity for a PLG company who's done some amount of that work already. How do you better tie in the sales efforts to accelerate the sales process using a lot of that product data?"[00:24:20] "In a PLG motion, everybody's interfacing on the same product data. So that entire team is operating against that shared source of truth, which makes it more multi-threaded, maybe a little bit more complex, but also easier for the customer to understand."

In today's episode, I'm sharing how I stumbled into success offering a Black Friday sale and made $5k in 4 days and you can too! My On-The Fly Black Friday Sale That Paid Off Big-Time It all began when we decided to take a break from our usual Thanksgiving spent with family and instead headed to Las Vegas. Little did I know that this trip would turn out to be a turning point in my entrepreneurial journey. I woke up the day before Thanksgiving and started scrolling on my phone. I saw all these incredible Black Friday deals and discounts. I started to wonder if there was a way I could tap into this Black Friday craze and boost my own business. As a blogger and entrepreneur, I was always on the lookout for innovative ways to sell my products and services. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to do just that. My Black Friday Offer I decided to lean into the excitement of entrepreneurs growing their businesses in the New Year and offered a one-hour coaching session where I would also email them 5 action steps they could use in their business. I decided to charge $250 per session, a discount from my current $350 per hour coaching rate. I slapped together a landing page and buy button and started sending emails. Each day I'd send a new email that I wrote on the fly, and each day I got sales. I ended up making over $5k in just 4 days. This paid for our Vegas trip and all our Christmas presents that year. What surprised me most was how there was an income stream I didn't know was there. And all I had to do was tap into it. This unexpected success taught me a valuable lesson about the power of seizing opportunities and thinking outside the box. It showed me that sometimes, the most significant breakthroughs can come when we least expect them. Show Notes: MiloTreeCart Personality Quiz: What Digital Product Should I Create?

When you think about sales how does it make you feel? For most people they feel icky and greasy. Sales doesn't have to be that way. You can implement a sales strategy into your fundraising approach so that you have a constant stream of people coming into your network for you to build stronger relationships with. What you'll learn: → why having a sales strategy doesn't mean you have to be salesy. → why a sales mindset works for nonprofits. → ways to motivate your team to keep pushing forward. → ways to keep things simple. → when it's time to expand. Want to skip ahead? Here are key takeaways: [5:40] To have an effective sales strategy doesn't mean throwing everything in people's faces. Think about servers at a restaurant. Great servers know the menu, what recommendations to make, ask you if you want desert. You don't feel like you're being sold to but you are.  Plus, that restaurant is paying attention to ticket totals and tips to help determine who gets the best sections. [10:53] It starts with building relationships and making connection. If you just keep coming back to people to ask for money and not learning about what their motivations are and who they are then you'll eventually run that well dry. [15:17] Create a better breakdown of your fundraising goal to know who to target. If you're looking for a certain amount of donors at a certain average gift then you can track where you're at and which audience you should be targeting.   [23:02] Keep reviewing goals and ensure the team is motivated. Figure out how members of your team like to be appreciated. Ensure that the goals that you're setting have a why attached so people feel excited to help get there. Don't forget to celebrate. [26:13] Encourage listening and providing value to your audience. Avoid going in to a meeting expecting to close. Go in ready to get to know someone and excited to learn. Come into the converation ready to provide value and knowing some things about the person you're talking with.

In this episode of The Revenue Builders Podcast hosted by John McMahon and John Kaplan, Chris Reising, a five-time Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) with extensive experience in scaling sales at early-stage tech companies, shares invaluable insights into the challenges and strategies involved in scaling sales functions for startups. From finding product-market fit to hiring the right sales reps and understanding the importance of pain points, this conversation provides a comprehensive guide for entrepreneurs looking to grow their businesses.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:01:17] In the early stages of a startup, you must wear multiple hats, including being a product manager and a sales professional. Understanding the ICP and gathering customer insights are crucial.[00:02:31] The early days of a startup involve learning every day, attending sales meetings, understanding objections, and identifying the value your technology brings. Effective communication with the product team is key.[00:04:05] Investor relations play a significant role. Early-stage investors look for different data points, and their feedback can be invaluable in understanding market signals.[00:06:11] The importance of prioritizing technology components based on customer pain points and the potential to generate immediate revenue.[00:07:44] Recognizing a recurring pattern in sales discussions where customers react positively to specific functionalities is a sign of repeatability and scalability.[00:09:05] Founders who want to remain deeply involved in the sales process need guidance on when to step back. It's a common challenge in early-stage startups.[00:12:42] Breaking down a grand vision into bite-sized chunks of value that address specific business problems is crucial for achieving repeatability and market success.[00:13:30] Expanding the vision is essential but keeping the framework simple enough for the market and sales team to understand and execute is key to early-stage success.[00:13:50] The importance of focusing sales efforts on the most productive areas and avoiding the mistake of spreading sales teams too thin.HIGHLIGHT QUOTES[00:06:56] "When you start to recognize a recurring pattern...you start to say, 'Now I have some sense of repeatability,' and that's really important."[00:10:08] "There's a huge difference between a first and second-time founder...you need to help them understand that stepping away is an important part of growing the business."[00:13:01] "Recognize you've got to break that big vision down into bite-sized chunks that can be digested by your go-to-market team and by the market, by customers."[00:13:30] "Where are we going to place our salespeople? Where are they going to be the most productive? That's really a key point."Listen to the full episode with Chris Reisig in this link:https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/building-a-scalable-culture-with-chris-reisigCheck out John McMahon's book here:Amazon Link: https://a.co/d/1K7DDC4Check out Force Management's Ascender platform here: https://my.ascender.co/Ascender/
