From Feeling "Sales-y" to Selling as Service (& Signing More Clients With Ease)

The Pleasurepreneur Podcast with Regan Figg

Description: In this episode, we’re diving deep into the true nature of selling—how it isn’t about being pushy or feeling uncomfortable, but rather about providing excellent service and meeting your clients needs. Through relatable stories and personal insights, we explore what it really means to sell with purpose, integrity, and alignment.

Highlights:

• The Dress Shopping Analogy: Selling doesn’t have to be complicated. Imagine walking into a dress shop, only to have the owner hesitant to help you try on, pay for, or leave with the dress you want. Just as that would be frustrating, holding back from fully offering your services can make it harder for clients who are ready and willing to buy.
• Selling as Customer Service: When you sell, you’re simply showing clients what you offer and how it aligns with their needs. It’s not about being “salesy”; it’s about providing solutions and creating a smooth experience for them to say “yes” to your service.
• Unpacking the Fear of Selling: Many of us, hesitate to sell out of fear of appearing too aggressive, feeling we aren’t ready, or worrying about rejection. We discuss these fears and how to shift our mindset around them.
• 3 Key Blocks to Selling:
  1. Fear of Being Seen as Pushy: We often hold back from selling out of worry that we’ll seem too forward, but this can leave clients hanging.
  2. Perfectionism and Self-Doubt: Feeling we aren’t “ready enough” to sell can delay us from putting our services out there, even though clients are ready for us.
  3. Fear of Rejection: Avoiding the emotional risk of a “no” can lead to half-hearted selling or missed opportunities. But the right clients are looking for your support.
• Recognizing When You’re Holding Back: Are you avoiding direct calls to action? Waiting for clients to approach you? Feeling uneasy discussing your rates? These are subtle signs you may be holding yourself back from making sales.
• Redefining Your Relationship with Selling: When you view selling as a form of service, it becomes less about you and more about how you’re helping others achieve their goals. Selling can be an act of generosity and integrity when it’s done with alignment and purpose.

Listener Homework: Take a few minutes to journal about the stories you tell yourself about selling. Identify where these beliefs come from, and ask yourself if they’re true. Try flipping the narrative and consider how selling could feel aligned, generous, and full of integrity.
