New coaches often say “I’m not good at selling.”

That’s a fixed mindset based on misconceptions about what selling is. Believing it will make it so for you.

When I was in my 20’s, I worked in the shoe department of Macy’s. It was a prized job in retail because commission sales can mean significant income without management responsibilities.

I asked questions to discover what they wanted and then, brought them options that fit.
