They love what they do, but they absolutely hate to sell. 02:18 - The problem she helps solve: I like to teach them how to get out of their heads, and that negative belief around selling, that selling is bad and you have to be pushy, and you have to be aggressive. So old school! 03:32 - The symptoms of the problem: If they're rattling off the mantras of, "I don't want to be sales-y. I don't want to be pushy. I hate being aggressive. I don't want to be one of those people." And on top of that, they keep hearing, "I need to think about it. I have no money. Call me in a few weeks" 04:23 - Clients’ common mistakes before consulting Liz: I talk a lot about the word, "follow up". The F-word, the L-word, love, and then some minimizer words. And I bet to everyone out there if you checked your last 21 emails that you sent out, you probably said "I would love to get together with you. I'd love to connect with you. I'd love to get something on the calendar. I would love to work with you.” 06:17 - Liz’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): So, I would say to truly stop using the language that really doesn't move the sales process forward. So, if you are going to drop an F-bomb, which I highly recommend you stop, instead of saying, "I'm just following up", why don't you say, "Hey, Bob, in our last conversation..." 07:00 - Liz’s Valuable Free Resource (VFR): To get more FREE tips and secrets on how to sell more with less pressure quickly, click here: https://www.lizwendling.com/free-gift/ 07:32 - Q: What advice would you give to a salesperson or a professional who is complaining about and struggling with not getting people to return their calls their emails, or texts?
