Introverts Can Make the Best Salespeople (Yes, Really)

Think introverts can’t sell? Think again. Being the loudest in the room has never been the secret to great sales - being the most attuned to the person you’re talking to is.
In this solo episode of Sales Is Not a Dirty Word, I’m breaking down why introverts are often the best people to crush it in sales - even if they’ve been told otherwise. 
If you’ve ever felt “bad at small talk”, too awkward, or too drained after conversations to be “good at sales,” this one is for you.
You’ll find out why some of the top performing reps on corporate teams where I worked I were the soft-spoken ones - and how their lowkey style built more trust, faster.
Listen in to discover: ✔️ Why being drained by people doesn’t mean you’re bad at sales - it’s a clue to your secret sauce ✔️ The natural superpowers introverts bring to sales (empathy, curiosity, pattern-interrupt energy) ✔️What to do with those non verbal cues you’re always picking up on ✔️ How to go deeper in sales conversations without feeling like you’re forcing it ✔️ Why introverts often overestimate how bad a call went - and how to fix that ✔️ How to make a sales conversation feel effortless instead of exhausting (hint: structure is your best friend)
