This generation of small business owners has a new selling style.
Its called “recession selling” and it refers to the way consumers have responded to the unsteadiness in the economy. What kind of seller are you? Does it match the way you think as a consumer? Do you upsell yourself on a product or service with lots of options or do you pass on the extras simply because times appear to be tough, and instead purchase a new product only out of sheer need?
Join me as I introduce you to our guest, Kelly McCormick, author of the new book, OutSell Yourself: Go from Hello to Sold with Ethical Business & Sales Techniques. READ MORE ABOUT KELLY McCORMICK HERE–>
Also joining me for the show as a co-host is Wokie Nwabueze, who will soon be a fellow host with me here on Toginet with her new show Stop Fighting! Make Peace at Home.
