In this essential episode of Unleash YES, Tom & Nat reveal how you can "sell without selling." Selling is often a four-letter word to educators. We all have the caricature of the used-car salesperson or some sleezy trickery-based approach. This creates an aversion that many educators can’t overcome.

However, this episode reveals the mindsets and strategies that turn sales into an empathy-based process that allows your business offering to serve an authentic need in the market. There is no business without sales, but sales don’t have to involve "selling."  Are you ready to transform your fear of selling into THE driver of your success? Tune in for practical insights and actionable steps that will make you proud to say, "I'm a salesperson!"
