Sales is NOT a Dirty Word: How to Be Yourself, Sell Like Crazy, and Get Clients Now!

Have you ever said, “I hate selling”?

Do you struggle with what to say in order for someone to go from being interested in your services to actually buying your services?

Are you often feeling confused about what to do exactly to get more clients?

Do you sometimes find yourself spending hours of time distracted on the computer looking for the perfect solution to getting more clients to avoid having in-person sales conversations?

Do you freeze when you hear ‘no’?

Are you worried about being pushy or sales-y?

If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of these questions, you may need a sales fix! Karen Graves founder of Your Sales Fix, is prepared to help you lose any fears you have about selling, show you it can be easier than you think to get more clients, and motivate you to get out there and sell!

During Karen’s session she will teach you:

• How to unleash your inner salesperson (Yes, YOU are a salesperson.)
• What you need to do and know to make sales conversations easier
• How to get a potential client to say ‘yes’ without pushing

11:30 – 1:00 p.m. – Solo VA Businesses, Managing Overflow with Subs & Building A Multi-VA Team
