At the very least, you have to sell yourself!

A creative by nature, unlike people "born to sell", I was not! When I find myself excited about new ideas, products or services and enthusiastically tell people, I don't think of that as "selling", but simply sharing, because it comes so naturally. But when I think of the prospect of "selling", unconsciously (consciously?) I hear a little voice that says, "I am not a sales person". That said, we all need to "sell" ourselves, in order to get the opportunities to provide our own specialties and expertise.

While some of you may have the "selling gene", the rest of you, regardless of your profession, will benefit from this short list of resources. Though barely scratching the tip of the "how-to sell" iceberg, you've got to start somewhere. And hey, you may even find you're a natural...after all! With endless sites, seminars, books and resources, just try to find what works for you and fits your style, enabling you to do what you do best!

Sometimes, it just takes that one tip that resonates with you to get the ball rolling and make you more comfortable with the process. That said, sign up (you too guys) for Diva Sales Tips Selling Doesn't Have to HURT Any Longer! by Kim Duke. And to prove my point, Kim's tag line spoke to me!

I hope you find this Resourceful. Inspired. Affordable. Personal.

Warmly,
Andi
