If You’re Afraid Of Sales & Marketing, Read This
In the past 24 hours, I’ve had two people say some version of “Sales isn’t really my thing.” From a metaphysical psychology perspective, when someone says “sales isn’t my thing,”they’re not describing a missing skill set, they’re describing a nervous system response. The issue here is that people avoid going deeper into their own language & dismantling the story that the nervous system is holding. Because saying “sales isn’t my thing” lands softer than: • My body doesn’t feel safe being evaluated • I associate money with taking instead of exchange • I’m afraid of appearing like I’m in need • I take it personal when someone says no So the nervous system sugarcoats the truth and exits the conversation early. What’s missing here is the opportunity to reframe and alchemize how the body interprets the process of sales & marketing. Sales is not naturally aggressive or manipulative. Sales is not even capitalism gone wrong. Sales is a conversation about transformation. Always….. it does not matter what you are selling. At the end of the day it is transformation For spiritual entrepreneurs in particular, when you realize that the people you’re helping could never pay you enough for what you give, the game changes. Because money is temporary. But when you give something that rewires how someone thinks, chooses, speaks, and moves through reality, you will understand that what you gave them last wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy longer than what they gave you in money. That money will be spent in weeks or months. But a transformation shift lasts for life & can even be taught to the next generation. 👉🏽That is called VALUE And until the body feels safe holding VALUE MORE than money, “sales will not be your thing”. Be honest, when you say ‘sales isn’t my thing,’ what are you actually trying to avoid feeling?”
