How do you make a purchase decision - in life or in business? Do you ever feel pressured to buy something - either because you’ve got FOMO or you’re convinced it’s the best deal you’ll ever get? And how does this effect your feelings towards selling in your own business?

In this episode I give you a very relatable analogy for ‘sales’, from a customer’s perspective. I invite you to reflect on how you can banish the ick and take things at your audience's pace, empowering them to make an informed decision about what they want to buy and why. This is the key to actually enjoying the sales process in your business and it's empowering for you, as well as your audience!

How do you feel about selling?

When you're a solo business owner, the reality of selling a one-to-one service is that really... you're selling yourself. You're selling all the parts of you, not just the things you are 'officially' qualified to do. People don't just buy what you do, they buy the way you think and the way you make them FEEL.

So like it or not, if you are a freelancer, contractor, or small business owner and you haven't reached this particular lightbulb moment then I promise that moment is coming and the sooner you embrace it, the better! And that, my business owning friend, is the moment you'll have access to everything you need to skyrocket your success. In this episode I give you a few examples of how this can manifest, from my own experience, and what you can do to be more truly you in your business.

If you've found yourself here, you’re probably a bit unconventional just like me. You like to do things differently. You don't just want to serve your clients and answer their problem, you want to dig underneath the symptom and solve the real problem they're experiencing. You're not happy with the status quo. You’re not afraid to stand up for what you believe in and you want to challenge the norms in your industry, maybe have tough conversations for the greater good.

Guess what? That’s me too. I am not happy with the marketing industry (for a start!) when it comes to helping small businesses. There's too much advice out there that applies to big business, but when it comes to the solo business owner, it's just not helpful. And that's the norm that I want to challenge; that's the status quo that I want to tear up.

This podcast is going to help you navigate your unique path through owning a business. My guests and I will offer guidance that allows you to take just the bits you like and feel good for you, so you can easily apply them to your business. Building a successful business is about building something with structure and flow, not something rigid that feels like wearing someone else’s clothes! My name is Siobhan Fox, your sweary unconventional ADHD business coach and marketing strategist. Join me on this journey and together, let’s do business differently.
