  • Mastering Sales: Unleashing the Power of Authentic Conversations
    In this segment, Erin shares a personal anecdote about the challenges she faced as a mother who wanted her daughter to attend a specific dance class but couldn't due to logistical constraints. This experience serves as a stepping stone to discuss the importance of understanding your customers' needs, constraints, and priorities when making sales.

    Erin emphasizes the significance of empathizing with potential customers and offering creative solutions to address their challenges. Sales is not just a transaction; it's about forming authentic connections and building lasting relationships.

    Sales is a much broader concept than simply convincing someone to buy your product or service. Erin believes in a holistic approach to sales, where conversations are grounded in authenticity and honesty. By considering the customer's perspective, priorities, and context, sales conversations become more meaningful and fruitful in the long run.

    Erin shares her biggest pet peeve in sales: encountering salespeople who fail to listen to their customers' needs and desires. Active listening is a key skill in sales, allowing you to truly understand your customer's situation and tailor your offerings to suit their requirements.

    To become a better listener, Erin advises slowing down during conversations and being willing to say, "I don't understand." By seeking genuine understanding and alignment with the customer, you can build trust and credibility.

    Throughout her career, Erin has encountered various challenges and learned valuable lessons. One of her top tips for success in sales is preparation. Knowing your product, target market, and objectives beforehand empowers you to navigate sales conversations confidently.

    Erin also cautions against getting stuck in "motion" rather than taking action. To thrive in sales, you must embrace vulnerability, which can feel daunting. Networking is an excellent practice space for honing your conversation skills and gaining clarity about your offerings.

    In closing, Erin reiterates the importance of networking as a starting point for sales success. Women have much to offer in this field, and through authentic conversations, they can make a significant impact on their businesses and communities.

    Don't miss this incredible episode filled with valuable insights and practical tips to revolutionize your sales approach. For more empowering content, be sure to follow the Giant Builders podcast and connect with Erin Thompson to embark on your journey to sales excellence.

  • How To Find Your Authentic Self
    After a lifetime of entrepreneurship, Beth came to her own realization that the checklist lifestyle she had been living wasn’t a true representation of her authentic self. At the age of 48, she did her own work to claim her purpose and break through the fears and excuses that were getting in her way. That’s when Beth went back to school and got her master’s degree in counseling. After years of serving hundreds of clients in her private counseling practice, Beth knew that she had to find a way to help support more people on a larger scale. That’s when the Authenticity Academy was born offering group and 1 on 1 clarity coaching.

    Now Beth combines her expertise as a licensed therapist, certified in body-positive psychology, and thought field therapy with the insights she gained on her own personal journey, to help hundreds of people live a life in alignment with who they were meant to be
