This video could be retitled, "Why EVERY BUSINESS Needs Strong Sales Skills." This advise is just as relevant if you build software, sell insurance, or provide consulting. That's why I (brand strategist and creative director) literally partnered with a successful sales guy in Mickeli Bedore, to form an agency (Reverb) that provides the essential go-to-market stuff (technical term) that companies need to grow revenue. If you're a... 👉 Pre-Seed to Series A startup 👉 Self-funded company doing between $2M - $10M who's ready to scale We'd be interested in talking about partnering to develop your brand, marketing, and sales platform.

Who knew sales skills were low-key the bomb? Not just for closin' deals, these skills can slay in all areas of your life. I didn't even realize I had 'em at first. But as time went on, I started to figure out how buyer psychology works and how to communicate effectively with different peeps. Here are some golden nuggets I've learned: Read the room and adjust your approach. Like a detective, you learn to read signals and adapt your strategy to spark interest and build trust. Communicate effectively and persuasively. It's not about blabbering, but delivering your message clearly and inspiring others to take action. Find the perfect solution. You become a problem solver who helps others find the best fit for their needs. Build strong relationships. It's not just about transactions, but connecting and building long-term relationships. Persistence is key. Rejection is not the end, but motivation to keep learning and leveling up your strategy. Sales skills aren't just for "salespeople." They're essential skills for everyone. Whether you're building a career, starting a business, networking, or even finding a date, these skills will help you reach your goals. My Tips: Use casual and relatable language. Share personal stories to engage readers. Use relevant hashtags to boost visibility. Encourage interaction with readers by asking questions in the comments. Bonus: Create eye-catching visuals, like infographics or short videos. Use humor to make your content more engaging. Remember: Authenticity and honesty are key to attracting readers. Consistency is key to building a strong personal brand. I Hope this helps! #sales #salesperson #communication #psycology

I've been mulling over something for a while and thought I'd throw it out here to get some insights from those who've been on the receiving end of outreach from an SDR or AE, Sales Leader. Or if you are an SDR/AE/Sales Leader using LI for personal branding have you received any feedback one way or another from a prospect or customer on your personal branding? I'm curious about how an SDR, AE, or even a Sales Leader who leverages LinkedIn for personal branding is perceived by prospects they're trying to engage with, those outside of Sales & Marketing circles. I can see if you are selling in to sales and marketing then personal branding as an SDR/AE etc would work well on LI. For example, when an SDR is prospecting a Director of Engineering, a Controller, or a Director of Infrastructure whoever your target buyers are, do these prospects check out the SDR's/AE’s/Sales Leader LinkedIn profile? If they do, does seeing posts about personal branding and sales techniques turn them off? Or maybe they don’t look them up at all, or if they do, they’re not bothered by it? Could it be that some prospects might be put off and decide to not engage with that individual or their company because of their personal branding content? Is it possible to strike a balance between personal branding and sharing informational posts about your solutions on LinkedIn? Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

Gurus will teach you to scale an agency - when they've barely scaled theirs. Typical case of "fake it till you make it". But I've done it for myself twice, and helped +100 businesses. So we've completely cracked the code for when it comes to client acquisition: 1 - Get a perfect understanding of your ICP, and craft a service to solve a MASSIVE problem that they have, entirely; 2 - Create and distribute sales assets to increase social proof and establish credibility in your niche; 3 - Now that you know: > Who you're selling to; > What you're selling them; > How you're capturing their attention; you can deploy some sort of cold outbound system - in our case it's cold email. 4 - Create a frictionless sales process by identifying the prospect's pain points and positioning your service as the solution. 5 - Hire to remove yourself from the process. To scale to multi 6, 7 figures and even beyond - this is the framework.

I am so proud of being in sales. A great reminder that keeps me going is the amount of folks that have told me no over the years that are no longer in business. I keep receipts and as a business owner myself I sometimes struggle to say no to sales reps. I promise you that I hear them all out. Many folks that told me NO could be in a different place today had they invested in digital marketing over the last 16 years, but instead they failed to adapt. Keep an open mind, folks! It could just change your life. #sales #nofear #confidence #outreach #proud
