Is confidence the secret to successful selling?

Jean Wright, a sales confidence coach, joins me to share her passion about helping women break free from the outdated, aggressive sales stereotypes. Jean shares her journey from selling Girl Scout cookies to becoming a sales pro, and how she learned to thrive by building relationships, not just closing deals. Her approach focuses on tapping into your authentic self, believing in your product, and developing the confidence to ask for what you’re worth.

Jean offers practical advice on how to move away from the fear of being "too salesy" and instead focus on the power of genuine connection. We also dive into the importance of trust, confidence, and the ability to stand firm when asking for what you’re worth in any sales conversation.

Highlights:

• Sales success is built on confidence and authenticity, not aggressive techniques.
• Building relationships and trust with customers is key to long-term success.
• Asking for money or closing a deal should come from a place of knowing your worth, not fear.
• Overcoming self-doubt in sales is a skill that can be learned and strengthened over time.
• Women in sales should use their natural empathy and communication skills to their advantage.
