MVP: Are you secretively selling?

If selling and promoting your services on social media makes you feel icky and spammy, you're not alone.

It's totally normal. We aren't born sales people.

But instead of working on the skills of selling and the mindset around selling, I see a lot of people either (1) avoid it totally or (2) secretively sell (aka disguise they're actually trying to sell something)

I've been guilty of both.  This is why I've worked so much on my own beliefs around selling. Feeling salesy isn't fun, but running a business without selling is really hard too. There's a solution.


Tune into today's episode to learn:

  • How to know if and why you're trying to disguise your selling on social media
  • How to normalize promoting and selling your services... even if you're scared now
  • What the most valuable posts are for your local audience
