I don't know how to “sell”

I don't know how to “sell”

I always said I didn't know how to sell, but people still come to my workshops. But do I really sell?

The last time I read the passage below in the book NIKE, JOURNEY TO THE GODDESS OF VICTORY, it dawned on me why I CAN “sell”.

“As I drove back to Portland, I marvelled at my sudden success in sales. I was not able to sell encyclopaedias and I despised that work to the bottom. I was doing a little better selling mutual funds, but I felt dead inside. So why is selling shoes so different? I realised it was because I wasn't selling. I was sure about running. I was convinced that the world would be a better place if people went out and ran a few kilometres every day, and I was convinced that it was better to run in those shoes. People sensed this belief of mine and they wanted it for themselves.” Phil Knight

That's it, short and concise. It is not about sales strategies, it is more about how you believe in what you want to get out into the world. One important thing I find in many stories of famous people who have changed the world. They had a strong belief that they could change the world for the better with their work, with their product. I, too, am convinced that if you change your mind, you change your life, and that will make the world a better place and people more authentic, happier, because we will be living our lives, not the lives of our neighbours, our friends, our relatives.
That's why people who come to see me at individual motivational workshops, They come because they believe, because they feel that by working on themselves they can change things for the better. Not just by talking, but above all by doing. People also see the changes in my life, especially in the actions that I do.

Words should be followed by action
When I met my husband Gregor, I was convinced by one main thing about him. And that is action, because many people are full of words, but everything stops at action. I will never forget the day, right at the beginning, when we met, when I was at his house and I said to him that it would be great if he had a waste bin in the toilet (women's things). I remember him saying, yes, that would be clever. And then we both went on separate holidays with the kids. Three weeks later, when I came to visit him again, the bin was already in place. I knew then that it was the actions that came first with him.

When can people “sell” their services, products to me?
When the “salesman” passionately explains his view of the solution.
When it is focused only on making the world a better place by solving it.
When he shares his life experiences.
When he is truly convinced that he can solve the challenge I have in front of me.
When earnings don't come first.
When it lives, it offers.
When its solution has a deeper meaning.
When he will always stand behind his solution.

And so “selling” becomes something fun
Phil Knight, Louise Hay, Steve Jobs, Ryan Holiday are four of the many successful people in the world who are great salespeople. Their mission is to change the world for the better. And I subscribe to that philosophy. For a very long time, I have been devoting my life energy to making you all feel better, to making you happy. But before I help others, I help myself by what I do.
First, I helped fiancés who wanted their wedding day to be carefree, special, effortless, as a wedding planner.
Then, as an event organiser, I made the company's employees feel at home, welcomed and had a great time in their work environments.
Now my mission is to teach people to love themselves and to start living their lives. I strongly believe that when you change your mind, you can change anything, even when illness enters your life.
