    73: Your Fear of Being "Salesy" is Why You Aren't Making Sales

    One of the main things I coach my 1:1 clients with is marketing and sales and if I had a dime for every time someone said “but I don’t want to be salesy” to me, I would probably be able to retire by now. 😜 Here’s the deal —I get it. No one wants to come off like a slimy car salesman and we aren’t going back to 2017/2018 where we are DMing all our friends from high school (been there, done that). But if you want to make sales and book clients, you have to talk about your offers and services and in this episode, you're getting a little pep talk from yours truly on how you should start thinking about sales so you can start making them. 💸 | LINKS | ✹ Take our FREE Discovery Your Money-Making Skillset Quiz ✹ Ready to start your business as a virtual assistant?
