I realized yesterday that I am in the "molding my sales skills" stage. I realized it because I was attending a 3 hour AdvoCare training session on how to build a business. This training is part 2 of 4 and I am willingly going. AND LOVING IT!
When I came to the conclusion that 2013 is the year of sales, I reflected on past years.
From 2009 to 2011 I was focused on exploring new countries. I spent 8 month in SE Asia, went to Europe for 2 weeks and spent time on the road traveling to new cities. This was the, "can't get enough of seeing new places" stage.
In 2011-2013, I focused on getting certified for both, yoga instruction and health counseling. I battled my own health issues and thought why not learn how to heal myself? Yoga helped with every aspect in healing. I've been a yogi since 2008, but no class is ever the same. It's my anti-depressant, toning workout and community builder.
Which brings me to today. I picked up a Regional Sales Rep. job and AdvoCare distributor. My problem was the fact that everything wasn't free. I felt bad charging people for (a). my health coaching. (b.) AdvoCare products and (c). Yoga classes. But all these things are great and I believe in them. I value them. Therefore, when I started seeing the value, the issue of letting people know the price started to dissipate.
I am a consumer, I know how I like to be talked to and know who I like buying products from. People I trust in. Well I trust in myself, so why give myself the backseat when I could call "shotgun?"
