"SELLING is Difficult and Daunting!"
"SELLING makes me feel pushy"
ENROLL NOW
You are great at what you do but, in a perfect world, you would rather go without having to "sell your services".
Whether you have the title "sales representative" on your business card or you are an entrepreneur selling your products or services, or a parent trying to get your kids to each vegetable, you are a sales person.
SELLING is everywhere!
When you are not good with driving or cannot swim, you can simply take the bus and avoid the pool. But when you are not good with people,
You Cannot Avoid It!
People are present everywhere.
They are involved in our daily life.
Not being good with People is NOT an option.
Let me take you back about 12 years ago. My one-on-one coaching business was taking off. I was coaching tis woman and I was working really hard for her. I was doing everything "by-the-book". I was preparing early and made sure everything was ready when she arrived. I was spending the first few minutes to chat with her and ask questions about her family, how are the kids before we would get to business. Then I would explain to her the whole session ahead and even telling her why the processes we were about to do would make her more confident, etc.
I was doing everything "right".
I was also very nice and friend and made that
WE HAD FUN TOO!
After our initial four sessions, it was time for me to SELL here a new package. I did not pressure her and told her to take her time to think about it.
Because: Don’t you hate it when you feel pressured to buy something right away?
Well, She did not renew for another package.
A few weeks later, I see one of her friends and she tells me that my client
HAD HIRED ANOTHER COACH!!!
She said that she liked her new coach that would go straight to the point and not waste too much time at the beginning of the session chatting about her family and stuff.
And also, she said that
I lost her when I did not seize the opportunity to renew right away after our last session.
That she may have done it right then.
So, I learned from this and I started to do that with my other clients.
I stopped being so friendly and fun and I started to go right into the session and not waste any time with chatting and making things fun.
And when I was in a sales conversation, I would always give a very short time limit on a special and tell them they had to sign a contract by the end of the day or the deal was no longer going to apply. So, I learned from this and I started to do that with my other clients.
IT DID NOT WORK!
Some people started to label me as being "pushy".
The big mistake I was making was the fact that I was trying to apply a one-size fits all for all my prospect clients and I did not have the skills to find out what personality style my clients were. Like how many different kinds of personalities were there anyway?
I can’t please everybody!
I actually thought that maybe I needed to find only clients that were like me.
I thought the concept of NICHING meant that I should find clients that are like me. That it needed to be a fit. So, that I could simply be myself and not have to worry about fitting with my clients.
So I started to filter my clients and would only work with people that were like me.
ANOTHER HUGE MISTAKE.
What you will find out in this course, is that, in my case, there is only 15% of the population that are like me.
So I was turning down 85% of potential clients….
How narrow-minded was that…!!!
For Maureen (Mo) Hagan, the journey was similar.
Her journey with sales has been going for multiple decades as a Global Health and Wellness Expert in the fitness Industry.
She remembers the time when she was presented with a invitation to write a fitness book with a highly regarded book publisher. After a number of phone calls to discuss the project it was clear in her mind:
They wanted to work with her
and she was going to become one of their next authors. The team at this publishing house were very familiar with her work and they were excited to get this book published.
She confidently submitted a brief outline of the book based on what they had discussed and with the vision she had in mind.
She was proposing something different from their standard style and structure so that it would stand out as something unique and innovative in the market.
She could see it being a great resource and training tool at the same time.
Eagerly, she awaited a reply anticipating that she would be starting this book project right away. As she waited for the official contract she began pulling content together.
Then she received their reply and to her surprise
(and utter shock)
they decided to pass on the book
and THERE WAS NO OFFER.
Both Mo and I learned that
understanding personality styles was a
key elements of success in SALES.
WE WILL LET YOU IN ON THE SECRET
Here are some of THE MISTAKES we made...
We did not account for people's
DIFFERENT Personality STYLES!!!
1. My client had a LEADER personality profile. Leaders like "big picture". My mistake was to explain the whole session to her, which would have been great for a THINKER personality style who loves details, but not the LEADER.
2. LEADERS also hate wasting time. They like to go "straight to the point". They value the results more than the person. Being very friendly with her, asking her about her kids and family and wasting time with small talk would have been the perfect thing to do with an INFLUENCER, but not a LEADER.
3. LEADERS are quick to make decisions. They don't need time to think about it. I told her to think about before renewing her package it as I did not want to appear pushy. Leaders see this as being weak. SUPPORTERS on the other hand, need time to think about it and will be very slow to make a decision.
4. Mo's book publisher portrait the characteristics of a SUPPORTER and THINKER. Mo offered her a different, unique and innovating concept. SUPPORTERS don't like CHANGE. They like true and proven methods.
5. Mo gave a brief overview of the book, just like a LEADER or an INFLUENCER would have liked. However, THINKERS like details. So her brief and concise proposal was viewed as lacking information.
Mo and I have had our respective challenges, made mistakes, and it took a while before we would find out a way to join forces and create a tool that people could use to identify people's style and avoid the mistakes we have made!
The reason why we were not successful was because we were working super hard, but we sometimes just did not have the tools to know how to interact with others. We did not really know that it was actually possible for the sales to happen in a much smoother way when you had the right tools.

Just Working Hard is NOT ENOUGH
After almost 10 years of practice as a CONFIDENCE EXPERT, Master Life Coach and Master NLP Practitioner, and after reaching International status with my 8 International No.1 Bestsellers, I realized that a lot of my clients did not necessarily need to learn how to be CONFIDENT.
They wanted me to teach them
HOW TO SELL!!
I never really thought of myself as a sales person.
Just someone who has a SOLUTION that people need.
That is when I started creating Online courses.
I partnered with Mo Hagan, to create the course:
THINK Yourself®

Small details can make A Big Difference
When we get put in a leadership position, whether you are in charge of a team, project-lead at work, directing staff or simply wanting your kids to eat their vegetables or convince your spouse to watch this specific movie, you are constantly in need of tools to influence others. We wish we had learned everything that we know now about personality STYLES 20 years ago.
We figured out very quickly that the way we were SELLING was NOT WORKING...
We have surely burned lots of bridges. We have followed tips, here and there to improve ourselves, that would help for a while, until we would go back to our old bad habits and revert to what we thought was our "set-in-stone" sales techniques.
Maureen has countless instances witnessing her staff making the same mistakes over and over. She witnessed people leaving the organization not because they did not like their job, but because they could not get along with one-another.
We can say that, although we believe that we learn from our mistakes and that our past is somehow like an investment, we wish that THINK Yourself® A SALES PRO had been available for us. There was not really one course that included the experience of a C.O.O combined to the experience of a Mindset Expert. That is why we developed the THINK Yourself® A SALES PRO Online Course.
Full disclosure. Just in the process of creating of this course, we did learn a ton from each other which contributed to increase our confidence with sales even more. We wish we had been given all the tools and strategies that we have developed in this course when we were in our twenties.
Who is this course for?
As mentioned earlier, this course will teach you how to use the STYLE-L.I.S.T. Personality Assessment Tool Sell, Influence, Collaborate, Lead and Get Along. You will learn tools, strategies, techniques, resources and mindset shifts to transform your relationship with SALES.
