EP 16: Why Being "Authentic" Is Not a Sales Strategy 100% Yourself With Barbera
-
- Affaires
“Be authentic” has become the most tossed-around and overused clichés in the world of business and sales.
On a daily basis I hear about how we should be genuine in our sales and selling endeavors. Programs, podcasts, books, webinars, and two-day conferences devoted to teaching people how to sell authentically abound. Gurus suck people in by shouting and touting, “Follow me on the path to closing more sales by being yourself and selling with authenticity.”
Authenticity is not a sales strategy.
This buzzword is a hyped-up way of saying be real, genuine, truthful, direct, honest, open, sincere.
When did that become a unique approach?
Isn’t that what we were supposed to do all along?
Authenticity is not some innovative new business strategy.
Being sincere is not a fresh and modern sales ploy. Being honest in the sales process is not a shocking concept … at least, it shouldn’t be.
In this podcast, I am diving in deep into how people can sell in a way that feels more natural and less sleazy because I see this big need for doing sales in a different way, I myself have felt that need deeply and that made me dive into selling in a way that's fun and natural using the talents and gifts that come natural to you.
