Ep 87. Selling Isn’t the Problem. It’s How You Were Taught to Do It


Listen Later

If you’ve ever said “I hate selling,” this episode is for you.

Because the truth is, you probably don’t actually hate selling.

You just haven’t found a way to sell that feels natural to you.

In this episode, we’re unpacking why selling in your content often feels weird, off, or just straight-up cringe. Especially when you’re being told to either teach or tell your story, with no real strategy in between.

Here’s what we get into:

  • Why the whole “just tell your story” or “just add value” advice isn’t cutting it anymore
  • The real reason content starts to feel pushy, preachy, or performative
  • What to do instead if you want to sell in a way that feels honest and actually converts
  • How to create content that answers objections before they ever hit your DMs

By the end of this episode, you’ll finally understand what’s been missing in your sales content and how to fix it without having to write cringe pitch posts or share personal stories that feel out of place.

Want help selling without the cringe?

Inside the Content Retainer, we:

  • Take your sales calls, coaching calls, and DMs
  • Pull out hidden objections your audience isn’t saying out loud
  • And turn that into weekly done-for-you content that actually converts

You’ll never have to guess what to say again.
