We love to do what it is they do, but selling for many is not a skill many of us have mastered. We have book shelves filled with books on the subject, have fiddled with sales coaches and taken seminars. BUT, the one thing all of these self-help tools have in common is the assumption that the reader is an extrovert and have no problem stepping up and talking to strangers. NOT SO! Introverts would love to be able to act like extroverts to sell, but have a real struggle even approaching the proper mind set.
THIS IS WHERE I NEED YOUR HELP!
I'm developing a eBook on selling.
I'm looking for great sales stories from introverts, shy people, those of us who struggle to sell.
If you're someone who isn't prone to jumping into the limelight and selling, what have you done to over come your reluctance? Tell me, what successful techniques have you used to jump the reluctance hurdle.
I'm looking for genuine tips from real people who are not 'born sales people'.
What's your sales tip?
