I’ll help you understand the right questions to ask and what to focus on in a conversation.

Implementing this strategy will surely increase you results - finding better quality people.

Most people are all over the place with their social media content - looking and sounding like everyone with no plan or clarity. 

It’s the main reason why you’re seeing a down trend in your results. 

If you haven’t realized it yet, social media has changed dramatically.

The problem is, you don’t fully understand how to adapt and evolve your content strategy to WIN.

Today, I’ll teach you 3 specific types of content that you need to create and what you need to do to stand out on social media for 2023.

The network marketing industry is full of FEAR recently.

Inflation, recession, potential wars happening, prices going up and consumers spending less….

The list goes on.

A recent report from Forrester says, “Consumers will be highly selective about which brands and business they buy from in 2023.” 

As an entrepreneur, it’s important to adapt your selling style to make sure you’re in alignment with what people are looking for. 

In this episode, I’ll share the consumer trend for 2023 and the steps you can do to set your business up for success in 2023.

Welcome to 2023 everyone! I hope you had a really wonderful time celebrating Christmas and New Year. 

Today we are going to talk about CREATING VALUE. 

(pssst...check out Episode 333 to learn more about the price value equation)

The concept of creating value has been tossed around a lot in our profession. 

In fact, a lot of us have heard statements like, “You’ve got to create value for what you do”, “You’ve got to create valuable content”, “You have to have valuable conversations”, etc. 

It’s because learning how to COMMUNICATE value is one of the most important skills in SALES.

However, many people in our profession don’t fully understand that there are actually different levels to value creation. 

In this episode we’re going to take that one step further and break down the 3 levels of value creation.

Are you frustrating trying to find committed and motivated people for your team? 

If yes, then read this: 

You don’t find business builders. This magical unicorn of a person does not exist.   

It’s NOT about finding business builders. 

It’s about understanding what you need to be doing while selling the idea of your business to create an internal motivation for them to do the work. 

In this episode, I’m going to share with you the #1 thing that you must be doing in your conversations to find committed and motivated business builders to help you grow your team.

Today, we’re going to talk about goal setting.

And before you roll your eyes and hit that stop button, I want to let you know that is not another training about setting goals. 

This is not about results focused, achievement-based goals, hitting that next rank, and hustling your way off to success. 

I want to share with you a radically different approach to setting goals. One that's going to completely transform your relationship with goal setting.

In fact, I’ve recorded this episode not for those of who you crushed your goals in 2022…

This is for those people that might not have the best relationship when it comes to setting and achieving goals in their business.

Hey everyone! I'm actually going to share with you a recording of a training that I did. It’s about what it takes to win selling on social in 2023.

We talked about this two different styles of selling - Transactional vs. Transformational.

I also touched on the current economic state of the world we’re living in today and the changes that we need to make as business owners. 

Basically, I’ll share with you the #1 social selling strategy for 2023.

I just felt there will be a lot of value to share this with you here on the show. Enjoy!

Do you want to know what motivates people to buy?

When the value is greater than the price (yes, price and value are two very different things).

As Warren Buffett says, “Price is what you pay, value is what you get.

Today, I’ll talk to you about something called The Price Value Equation.

This is one of the most important concept I've learned on how to be successful at selling.

Today marks our second episode of the Automation Series where I’ll be discussing an important tool you can use to automate your business: text automation.

In a nutshell, it allows you to have text messages automatically sent out to a group of people at a pre-defined schedule.   

Imagine starting a conversation or sending information out to a large group of people at the same time without spending hours sending each individual message.

Sounds pretty awesome, right?

For Pt. 2 of our Automation Series, I’ll share the benefits, features, best practices and strategies of using Project Broadcast.

Network marketing is one of the best professions that exists today.

One of the reasons I say that is because there’s so much personal and business growth that comes out of it.

While I love most of what we do inside of the networking marketing and social selling….

There are certain aspects of it that I believe really need to change, specifically the way we treat others.

Once we’ve made this shift it will greatly impact our industry.

Today, I share with you the negatives of competition and why we need to shift from competing to collaborating.

We've been taught that personal development is critical.

If you’ve been listening to this podcast for a while, you’ve heard me say that social selling is a personal development program with a compensation plan attached.

Here’s the thing: personal development and personal growth are not the same thing.

As leaders we spend too much time doing personal development without actually having personal growth. 

So let’s revisit how we previously viewed personal development and how it’s changed over the years. 

In this episode, I share the distinction between personal development and personal growth, and why we need to pursue true personal growth.

In the previous episodes, I talked about the two important questions to get you unstuck in your business.

1. WHO you want to help

2. WHAT you do in the business

Today is third and final episode of our Unstuck Series and we’re focusing on the HOW. 

I’ll share why you need to stop thinking it's what you sell and shift your focus to HOW you sell your products and business.

Last week I talked about one of the many ways that people get stuck in their business: not being clear on WHO it is that they actually help. 

Today, I’ll be sharing with you the second biggest reason why people get stuck. 

It’s when they lose sight of WHAT it is they do in their business. 

Most of us are still stuck on the old approach of selling the product and business to anyone and everyone. 

This episode will help you focus on the transformational point of view of building a sustainable business.

Today I want to have conversation with you about an important topic:

Your personal relationship with your upline. 

Because recently I’ve been hearing a lot of leaders look at their upline critically simply because their teaching is not in alignment with Love Serve Grow.

Or the strategies that they’re implementing are very transactional which is opposite to what we teach about transformational selling. 

At the end of the day, Your Virtual Upline, and the courses and program that we teach here, can never substitute the value of your upline.

YVU 319 - I Help Statement

Do you get tongue-tied and sweaty when someone asks, “What do you do?

The problem isn’t you - it’s the way you’ve been taught to sell and recruit.

The old school tactics that most people teach in this profession is that everybody is a prospect.

It’s one-sided and transactional, and it REPELS the people you want to reach.

What if you could have authentic conversations about your business instead of being ghosted or blocked?

In this episode, I want to talk about the importance of an 'I help statement’ to help you gain clarity and confidence when sharing your business.

"All the adversities are preparing you and shaping your story."

One of the struggles when it comes to conversational sales is how to transition from small talk to meaningful conversations. 

Although small talk is the initial step in building relationships with your prospects, it can oftentimes lead to you doing most of the talking (AKA transactional conversations).

The key to advancing a sales conversation is understanding the conversation flow and knowing the right questions to ask – Transformational Selling. 

In this episode, I’ll teach you how to ask the right questions to your prospects for you to have authentic and meaningful conversations that brings them closer to you.

Aug 23, 2022

Every time I ask the question - What do you say when people ask, ‘What do you do?’

Two things frequently come up… 

  1. Build a business or make money from your phone!
  2. Help people become entrepreneurs or start a business

BUT…these are red flags for people.

Today, I’m sharing why you should stop saying these two things to prospects - especially when you are first introducing them to your business. 

Aug 16, 2022

It’s kind of funny that I need to do an episode on this topic. 

Because you know how to talk to people. You've been having conversations your whole life.

The only reason you have an issue starting a conversation with someone is when you throw your business into the mix. 

For most conversations - you KNOW how to respond, but you doubt yourself that you might say the wrong things and jeopardize the RESULT you want.

That’s one of the biggest downsides of being TRANSACTIONAL.

You’ll always struggle with what to say because you’re results focused. 

Today, I’m going to give you some actionable advices for starting a conversation with someone on social media (whether you know them or not).
