Episode 64: Selling Doesn’t Have To Be Stressful | Jeremy DeMerchant
This is the first episode of my Invest In Your Staff series! Over the last few months, I have spoken to several companies that are experiencing the great resignation. There are a variety of ways to invest in the success of your staff so they don’t leave your company. Today, Jeremy DeMerchannt who works with corporations on optimizing their sales team training processes is on to share his expertise.
If you’re an entrepreneur, or if you’re an employee in a sales-based role, knowing how to sell is an absolute must. Yet a lot of people find selling difficult and scary. Does selling make you feel pushy, manipulative, or sleazy?
My guest today will help your team have great sales conversations without stressing out. Jeremy DeMerchant is the founder of the sales consulting agency Permission to Sell and host of the Sales Team Rescue podcast. He teaches people how to gain confidence and get better at selling – without using sleazy tactics.
Selling isn’t about pressuring the other person or trying to trick them. It’s about listening to them and treating them like a human being. If you think selling is manipulative, think again because Jeremy’s about to show you a whole new perspective.
