Totally agree that we don’t learn how to sell these days. It is probably the most important skill that we can learn in school but we are really taught that selling is sleazy and bad. I recently heard a quote about how selling is convincing somebody of a future outcome that is good for them. Love that!
Firstly, Thank you for listening! We’re on a real mission at the moment to reeducate young people about this so it’s good to know that it’s ringing true with people! Love that quote, too many people look at what’s in it for them and not the value that those receiving are getting 😀
