How to positively embrace the energy of selling!


Hello Theo,

Welcome to December! 

As we enter the festive season of buying and selling, I’ve been reflecting on the sales process.

As business owners we do have to sell our products and services, so why not make it an enjoyable and empowering experience for ourselves and others.

Read on for my tips ….

I hope you have a wonderful month.
How do you feel about selling your products or services? 😉

It may feel uncomfortable for some of us, but it's a skill which is really important; especially in the current economic climate. 

As well as the practical aspects of promotions and sales, your personal energy and mindset is key.

To embrace your inner sales person here are some tips to consider...

~ Be aware of any scarcity thoughts and feelings, as others will pick up this energy. To help overcome this, one of my very first mentors recommended establishing a reserve of time, money and clients.

~ Reframe any fears by changing your perspective from selling to serving or helping. People love to discover new products and services which can help them lead better lives (I do!)

~ Have a strong belief in what you do and results you can achieve.

~ Are you clear on your sales activities? Do you have a consistent plan? It can take between 8 to 10 exposures to your service before someone might buy from you. 

~ Are you prepared for objections and how you will address them?

~ Testimonials and client case studies provide evidence and credibility. 

~ Be confident in following up by building positive relationships first.

Let me know what works for you!

Responding to Challenges


Hello Theo,

Every morning, when I wake up, I savour the beautiful colours of the trees and the landscape, surrounding my home.
 
As well as the apples which have grown abundantly this year!
 
I’m working my way through apple crumble, stewed apples and next on the list is Cinnamon Apple Cake. 

Do let me know if you have any recipe recommendations!
And now there are only two months until the end of a year of changes and challenges!
 
All businesses face challenges at some level, no matter what size or industry. 
 
But the continuing global events of the past 2.5 years have certainly added to the pressure!
 
Recently, I found myself slipping into scarcity and fear about what might happen next!! 
 
Fortunately, as solo or small business owners, we can respond to events more rapidly than a larger organisation. 
 
And we can manage our mindset to focus on growth by …
 
~ Being innovative and creative. As Albert Einstein said “Imagination is more important than knowledge…. Logic will take you from A to B, imagination will take you everywhere”
 
~ Focusing on revenue generating ideas. Although the results are not as immediate as the day to day ‘busy activities’, the results are more satisfying
 
~ Improving the way we market our products and services to motivate and inspire our audiences
 
~ Increasing our visibility, extending our networks and having more impact

~ Showing up with confidence in the sales process
 
~ Developing a mindset of abundance and success. 

By changing our consciousness we can change our circumstances.

Living your Personal Brand + Wellbeing at Work


Hello Theo,

We're into the last quarter of 2022!  
 
What are your plans for the next three months?
 
September went so quickly!
 
A beautiful private networking lunch at the Nomad Hotel, London, was followed by a few days in Windsor for The Queen’s funeral procession. 

It was such an emotional time for me! I needed space to process and heal the feelings of grief and loss I've experienced in my own life.
 
And then the month was over!
Living your Personal Brand.....

Did you know that it takes just one tenth of a second to make a first impression!
 
Which is why it's really important to consider your personal brand as well as your business brand.
 
Developing a personal brand is an engaging and authentic approach to business, helping you raise your profile, increase your confidence and achieve your goals.
 
It's about leveraging your skills, experience, knowledge and personality, and sharing these to help others know more about you and your business.
 
What would you like your personal brand to say about you?
 
Areas to consider are your expertise, vision, values and interests, and how you communicate with your audience.
 
And then it's about living your personal brand consistently, through the conversations you have, the information you share, the environments you spend time in, as well as the decisions and actions you take.
 
Some of the benefits of developing your Personal Brand include...
 
~ Attracting the right opportunities
 
~ Greater work satisfaction as you express your passions
 
~ Differentiating yourself from others in your industry
 
~ And the ability to attract more income!
 
Personal branding is such a relevant topic for business today. 

It's one of the areas I cover in my private one to one and small group coaching sessions. 
 
To find out more contact me HERE or click below
Wellbeing at Work
With stressful daily commutes, long distance travel and demanding corporate roles I realised, very early on in my career, I needed to look after my physical and emotional wellbeing.
 
As a result, I tried lots of natural therapies, supplements and treatments which were and continue to be really beneficial for my overall health.
 
In the past few years I included Essential Oils into my daily wellbeing routine.

I love them! They are so natural and versatile, smell amazing and are very potent. 

I use them for skin and hair care, to uplift or calm emotions, improve sleep as well as to clean the house!

Do you use Essential Oils?

You're very welcome to join my private Facebook group HERE where I share tips and information, in addition to general healthy living insights. 
 
Or if you would like to find out more you can download a copy of my guide How to Get Started with Essential Oils
