Have you never really “fit in” with the crowd - whether that’s in your industry, company, family, etc.? This episode is for you, my friend. 
Because I never fit in either and the moment I started leaning into that is the moment I started seeing success. 
The more I leaned into - the more success I saw. This has been the same for every one of my clients and I have zero doubt it will be the same for you.  
It’s time to unapologetically lean into your Black Sheep strengths and create the impact you were born to make by sharing your different perspective, approach or idea. 
This applies to sales and all areas of life as well! 
Follow what I lay out in this episode and we will light world on fire together 🔥 
Can’t - freaking - wait. 
Top episode quote: The only way you can fail is not seeking out help, not leaning into your black sheep strengths. So for all of us, please show up powerfully. Show up as yourself, and it helps us all show up brighter, too. - Aleasha Bahr

Do people easily forget or confuse what it is you actually DO? 
It’s often because you’re “pitching” instead of having an actual conversation where BOTH people talk. 
It’s crucial to ask strategic questions when explaining your service because if you ask nothing or the typical “makes sense” - it could easily leave your buyer struggling to connect dots and losing the sale. 
If your pitch doesn’t have questions embedded in it - you are missing at least 50% of the sales you could win.
This latest episode dives deep into the strategy behind check in questions that make your pitch feel like a conversation that end with your prospect saying “hell yes” 
Listen in to discover: 
Design strategic check in questions, specific to your offer, that “sell” someone just by asking them 
Win more sales by customizing your conversation based on the answers you get to these check in questions
Know the best times to ask these check in questions for the highest impact 
Harness the power of curiosity over selling and listening over talking

Few things turn off a buyer more than feeling like they’re talking to an evasive or pushy salesperson.
 
Even if the salesperson is someone with the best intentions, it’s the whole format of the traditional sales call that oozes sales sleaze.
 
You know what I’m talking about - the interrogative Q&A followed by a long winded pitch where only one person is talking. 
 
If you’re looking for an alternative that positions you as an expert they can’t wait to work with then this episode is for you. 
 
Get ready to: 
Understand how to seamlessly weave your pitch into the discovery section of your call when your prospect is most open to hear it 
Discover the power of empathy in sales and how it can create stronger connections, leading to more successful outcomes.
Have your prospect decide they want to work with you before you even get to the “pitch” section of your call 
Proactively overcome objections instead of defending or trying to “save the sale” at the end of the call when everyone is tired. 
Increase overall sales with significantly less effort

The holiday season brings Mariah Carey music, presents and…objections from your prospects. 
Unless you’re in retail you’ll usually start hearing prospects explain why they’re going to wait until the new year to move forward because of expenses, timing or a combination of the two.  
You find yourself wondering “why did you book a call then?” Well, because they really NEED your help during the holidays. 
Instead, they’re psyching themselves out thinking about the presents they need to buy and time off to celebrate.  
In fact, you might be thinking the same thing about yourself. Which leads you to buy your prospect’s objection and end up with little to no sales the last 2 months of the year. 
In this short episode, I break down an easy way to navigate this popular, seasonal sales challenge.
Listen in to discover: 
Creating offers specific to your customer’s holiday needs that make it easy to say “yes”
Understanding why the holidays are actually the BEST time to move forward 
Strategically structuring your sales conversations to head off holiday objections before they start
Examining your own holiday objections which could be affecting your sales conversations
