In the real business world, world-class companies treat their customers with love & respect and they focus on long-term relationships. Not making a quick buck.
Because no one can be successful for you. Sales Confidence is earned, through daily actions ... just like putting coins in a Sales Confidence Bank.
You need to have sales confidence to succeed in business.
Selling is an attitude ... about how you run your business. How you treat your customers, potential customers, your colleagues. (Really anyone who
touches your business.) You never know where your next sale is going to come from. So treat
everyone with style & grace.
You need to make a commitment to selling & self-promoting.
Being in travel means your invitation is exciting & delicious. You're not attached to 'closing the sale' because selling travel shouldn't be about close rates.
Selling is simply about helping people prioritize what they want.
And then making the purchasing process smooth & simple.
Sales & self-promotion comes easily ... when you're OVER THE TOP EXCITED about what you're offering.
You're excited about a product or service. So you tell a friend about this killer product or service. Then your friend wants the same product or service as you! But if you show that same kind of enthusiasm about your own work? It's a different story. We've been taught that 'tooting our own horn' is a NO! NO! Especially for women! But think about it this way ... Unless you've got the money to hire a sales team ... no one is going to get out into the marketplace and be FREAKISHLY EXCITED for you. (And no one is going to make the money for you.) So it's up to YOU to sell & promote. And if you want a successful business. you must be more FREAKISHLY EXCITED than anyone else about your product or service.
Are you ready to give your travel business a fighting chance? Then keep reading.
