What we want to share today is the “Selling” in your business goes far beyond selling a product or service and should never be in the arena of “I hate selling or being sold to”. Here a few questions to get us started in the fun world of selling as an everyday function of your business.

  1. Are you selling your why daily?
  2. Are you selling your products/services or are you helping make your customers lives better?
  3. Are you positioned for sales opportunities including ultimately selling your business?

Topic 1 - Selling your “Why”

  • Are you selling your “Why” to yourself every morning to get you ready for the day
  • Selling your “Why” is also sharing your why to staff and customers alike
  • Shout your “Why” throughout your community

Topic 2: Sales should be helping your customers not just making the “sale”

  • So you think you can sell - get ready for a whole lot of “NO”
  • Learn the needs of customers (kind of a no brainer) but take it one step farther and discover their why for coming in today
  • Upselling is not a bad word - get over it and your customers will thank you

Topic 3: Be open to sales opportunities including the selling of your business

  • Take calls and appointments from people selling you things that could help your business
  • Be open to evolving your business to increase sales
  • Always be in a position to sell your business if the right time and offer comes along
