When we think of sales, we often picture a person coming to our doorstep promoting their product or a car dealership employee that tries to trick us into buying a car we don’t need because he’s working on commission.
This is one of the reasons why many people try to avoid this industry. But sales means helping other people get what they want, and the truth is that it is not a business skill, it’s actually a life skill that we all practice whether we realize it or not.
In today’s episode, we have a very special guest, Dr. Cindy, who both lives her life with enthusiasm and can help all of us to live ours the same. We discuss the misconceptions around sales, the five steps of a sales process, and the reasons why sales are part of our lives every day, regardless of the industry we’re working in.
