Description
How to Sell Yourself Better: People buy people first, then the product and service.
Who is your biggest client? Have you thought about yourself as your client? Your own product is one that you use every second of every day!
Everyone is unique in different ways. Like playing a game or in our worklife, it is key that we accept who we are, our limitations and that we are not ‘perfect’. If we understand our ourselves, we know how to ‘promote’ and ‘sell’ ourselves better.
Another key theme of this talk is ‘how to listen’. There is little education about ‘Active Listening’ which is a key role in selling. If you listen better, then the whole selling process is easier to reach your goals – both in and outside of work.
