SB020 – Down to Earth Sales, an interview with Diana Schneidman

DianaSchniedman_whitebackground-001Last month I read a fantastic book titled Real Skills, Real Income. It’s written for people looking to start their own business, especially freelance and consulting services. The book teaches how to get your first client in 30 days. In this episode Diana Schneidman shares her insights on sales and business.

Breakthrough in Sales

Listen to Diana’s advice on cold calling. She said two things, first she does her cold calls first thing  in the morning. And she may call  an existing client to get herself in a good mood.

Second she doesn’t view cold calling as cold at all. She’s calling to warmly offer her help. She also shared that over time she finds the calls easier than real work! How funny is that.

Why don’t try this for a week? Get your list together for tomorrow morning. Make your calls. Repeat for 5 days.

Housekeeping

I’m going to stick to publishing on Tuesdays. So expect a new podcast every Tuesday, most likely late mornings on Central time.

This weekend, August 15-17th, I’ll be attending the very first Podcast Movement conference in Dallas Texas. My goal is to raise the quality of these podcasts and to make great connections. If you’re attending let’s connect!
