Today, I am excited to interview David Shriner-Cahn of smashingtheplateau.com.David shows us how he used his expertise working as a finance executive in the non-profit sector to start his consulting business. David now teaches consultants how to create their own businesses in his membership community at Smashing The Plateau.David Shriner-Cahn Case Study David is featured in my new book Use Your Job to Quit Your Job. Below is the case study from the book where David is featured. This comes directly from the book:This is what David Shriner-Cahn did. David worked as an executive in the non-profit sector for over twenty years. When he was laid off from his job, he decided it was time to pursue his dream of entrepreneurship. Naturally, having enjoyed working in the nonprofit space in his previous career, he chose to start his business as a consultant in nonprofit management. Using his expertise, having managed nonprofits for over 20 years, and leveraging his connections, David was able to quickly book his first consulting clients. All he had to do was tell his connections that he started a consulting practice, this led to referrals, which immediately led to clients. Soon after, David used his expertise in business management and expanded into consulting private for-profit businesses. Years later, after building a profitable consulting practice that supported David's life as a full-time entrepreneur, he started a new business at smashingtheplateau.com where he helps consultants, coaches, and professional service business owners learn how to be more successful entrepreneurs. You can see how David used his expertise in nonprofit management to start his consulting practice, which led to an expanded consulting practice, which then led to his business teaching consultants at Smashing the Plateau. Consulting is a viable and easy option for your first business. Take what you know, from your experience working in the industry and sell it. Start with consulting, use it as a stepping stone into entrepreneurship, then build your next business just like David did.This Interview This interview is part of a series of case studies that I will be publishing to The Entrepreneur Ride Along Podcast over the coming weeks as I interview successful entrepreneurs in the online business space. These interviews and case studies will be featured in my newest book Use Your Job to Quit Your Job.Resources MentionedResources mentioned in this podcast episode:·         Use Your Job to Quit Your Job (the book)·         David's Business: smashingtheplateau.com

I love talking about sales. I was fortunate to be exposed early in my career to what professional sales looks like. David Shriner-Cahn invited me to discuss my early days in selling IT services on his Smashing the Plateau podcast. “My view of sales was framed by professionals. I was trained with a group of professionals who built a lot of trust with their clients. And for me, one of the definitions of a professional in sales is someone for whom every transaction increases trust in the next transaction. “Every relationship I can move forward—if I am doing it correctly—I am making the next one easier because I'm building trust at every phase. It's not my job to make a client's decision for them, and it's not my job to trick them into that decision. At every step along the way, if I can work in a way that helps them get what they say they want, it is going to increase trust next time. “My job is to try to uncover an opportunity. To find if there's a need, if we can help a client solve something, and if they see a problem we can solve. My job is not to convince them past their objections but to help them make a decision, yes or no, about whether this is the right move for them. “Now, I do that with the mindset that I need to be able to close sales and move forward. I think many consultants spend a lot of time discussing potential opportunities but never getting to a clear yes or no because they're so afraid of getting a no. If I'm afraid that someone will say no, I never ask if I can get to a yes. “I got to a place where it was more important to be clear in my relationships. Not to waste my time and not to waste the time of my prospective client. Rather, I'd work to get to a clear yes or no as early in the process as possible. And then start the consulting relationship if there is a relationship to start.” --- Podcast: Smashing the Plateau Episode: How to Sell Your Expertise as a Consultant Featuring Craig Swanson Website: https://smashingtheplateau.com
