๐ŸŽ‰ WELCOME TO SPEAK YOUR WAY TO CASHยฎ: Your Path to Corporate Contract Success! READ THIS POST IN FULL! ๐Ÿš€
Youโ€™ve just joined the #1 community for experts who want to land five- and six-figure corporate contracts and scale their businesses strategically. Here at SPEAK Your Way To Cashยฎ, weโ€™ve built a reputation for excellence: weโ€™re the 14th fastest-growing privately held company in Georgia and ranked 370th in the U.S. We donโ€™t just teach salesโ€”we create transformations. Iโ€™m Ashley Kirkwood, founder and CEO of SPEAK Your Way To Cashยฎ. I left a $300,000 partner-track attorney job to build my own law firm and SPEAK Your Way To Cashยฎ! Since then, Iโ€™ve personally closed five- and six-figure contracts with corporations and helped countless others do the same. If youโ€™re here, itโ€™s because youโ€™re ready to take action and build a thriving business by selling your expertise at the highest level. This community isnโ€™t just a groupโ€”itโ€™s a movement of experts ready to unlock their full potential.

Iโ€™m Nadia Shaik, a nationally award-winning published author and artist turned government contractor. In 2019, I became the CEO and founder of Garam Masala Studios, Inc. I help Program Directors at mid-to-large public-facing organizations to develop culturally grounded youth focused, multimedia storytelling collateral that builds trust with diverse communities. I'm a teacher by day, a rotary member, birder and I enjoy being a YouTuber and writing, voicing, and drawing dramas, and being involved in the arts in my Oregon-based community. Even though I'm not able to invest in the deeper knowledge at this time, what I've been able to access through this program, podcast and book has changed the trajectory of my company, so thank you so much.

I really like understanding about frameworks or AI and how, as CEOs, we're making decisions from that mindset and not from an employee mindset. I've been making these CEO decisions, and it comes with a lot of practice and abundance thinking, not fear, like Ashley mentioned. And this is just another one of those decisions that, as CEOs, we have to make to continue with our business.
[AHA MOMENTS] Session 7: Rejection Reversal
๐Ÿง Ever notice how one objection can spiral into self-doubtโ€ฆ while someone else hears the same words and confidently closes the deal? In this session, weโ€™re breaking down:Why objections are never about youThe mindset shift that instantly removes fear from sellingThe exact methods for responding to resistance without defending, discounting, or over-explaining ๐Ÿšจ This is where โ€œnoโ€ stops meaning stopโ€”and starts meaning next. โœ๐Ÿฝ Drop your AHA if you just realized objections are actually buying signals.

@Julie Day yes, and it made me think about when I should follow up. Quarterly, seasonally, everything like that, so that people that I contact know I exist at the right time.

@Lara Bruner she really showed that she wasn't going to get pushed around and that they had to think twice, but I love how in the end she still got paid.
