Hi! I'm Lauren Wallett

When you Listen, you don't have to Sell [Sales Series 8]

SALES SERIES

Good morning from NYC!

Which do you prefer:

  • Being listened to?
  • Being sold to?

The lie we've been told is

that we have to:

  • Sell
  • Overcome objections
  • Always be closing

This makes every interaction, transactional and coercive.

Awful.

When you listen to someone, you make them feel connected to you, even if you don't do anything.

You're able to offer guidance, provide solutions, point them in a new direction, make an introduction, and build your relationship.

Maybe they buy from you.

Or maybe they trust you and one day introduce you to your next business partner, investor, best friend!

Why limit yourself to just a sale?

Write back and tell me what alternative you'd like BESIDES a sale.

Think outside the box. Think big. Surprise yourself. Don't limit yourself to sales only.

There are bigger and better opportunities out there for you.

​

Love, Lauren

Something different, for a change. I've mailed you about a lot of data-related ideas over the past 2 years. Now it's time to return to some divination. As of tomorrow (7th March) I will have been back in LA for 4 months. I've been digging deep. Even before the fires and generalized chaos of the current events, I always ask myself: What do you want? And I want to be fully expressed creatively. Whether that's as a street performing avant clown, or a software startup founder, or a candle making...
