“No matter what stage of business you are at, it's really knowing that sales absolutely is, can, and should be beautiful.”
—Jamie Gulino Davis
There’s always a negative connotation about sales. People have this idea that we should never listen to salespeople because they only have one agenda: they make you lose control, urging you into buying their product or service and lose control of your money. So, it has always been a daunting and overwhelming experience for business owners to close sales.
And I confess—I used to struggle with sales too. Because like a typical person, I grew up with a mindset that salespeople are ‘evil’. It took a mindset shift to finally understand that you’re not playing the bad guy if you want to have sales. Because remember: sales drive revenue. Your business’ success is driven by your sales. It’s a part we can never run away from.
So just like how our guest, sales leader, and strategist Jamie Gulino Davis puts it, we need to embrace the beauty of sales, identify it against marketing, and cross the bridge where these two intersect.
In this episode, Jamie talks us through the beauty of sales that would help us shift our money mindset. It’s not about making people lose control of their money; it’s actually offering them solutions to their problems.
