How to Sell Online

How You Can Succeed Even If You Aren't A Natural Born Entrepreneur


Listen Later

I feel this need, this inner prompting, to share with you a bigger story that I haven't really done online yet.

It's a story that sounds too good to be true, and maybe that's why I struggle with it.

I'm not fancy. I wasn't blessed with a brilliant mind or an eloquent way of speaking. I've been looked over, unheard, and sometimes, I just blend in.

I'm not sure if I have any natural-born talents, as I feel pretty average. All the same, I think the only thing it takes is a dream, a desire, and to not be afraid to get to work.

To give you some of what I have learned across all the businesses that I've run, I've found one common thread that is the key to making them successful.

And I believe, that is to know how to market.

In this episode, I’ll be giving you a template to market your product.

Do you sell products or do you provide products that help change someone's lives? I never want you to sell your product to make money. It doesn't work. I want you to market your product and sell the reason that your customer has to have whatever it is that you are offering.

Remember, marketing is the act of analyzing the market and understanding the needs in such a way that whatever product is launched, it sells itself. To know more, stay tuned.

Key Takeaways:
