Let’s talk about the elephant in the room:
Sales.
Even the word can make heart-centered business owners cringe. You got into this work to help people—not to push, pitch, or pressure.
But here’s the hard truth: if you’re not selling, you’re not growing.
And if you’re not growing, you’re not reaching the people who need you most.
The good news? You don’t need to sell like a sleazeball to succeed.
You just need a new definition of sales, one that aligns with who you are and the impact you want to make.
Because when done right, selling is one of the most generous things you can do.
Let’s explore how to shift your mindset, simplify your process, and actually enjoy inviting people into your work.
If you’ve ever found yourself procrastinating on follow-ups, overthinking your pricing, or spiraling after a “no,” you’re not broken—you’re human.
Most of us have some sales baggage, especially if you’ve ever been on the receiving end of sleazy tactics:
🗹 Pushy DMs pretending to be “curious about your work”
🗹 Guilt-driven pitches wrapped in fake urgency
🗹 Feeling like someone is trying to close you, not connect with you
No wonder we avoid becoming that person.
But in avoiding bad sales tactics, many business owners fall into the opposite trap—not selling at all.
That’s not integrity. That’s hiding. And it’s hurting the people who actually need your help.
Here’s the mindset shift I teach my clients:
“Selling is the process of helping the right people say yes to the right solution at the right time.”
That’s it. No tricks. No tactics. No performance required.
When you approach sales as service:
🗹You ask real questions to understand what they need
🗹You offer honest insight into whether you can help
🗹You give them the space to make an empowered decision
And yes, you still guide the conversation. Confidence doesn’t equal coercion—it means you lead with clarity.
Start with their pain—not your product.
Nobody wakes up wanting a coaching program or an eBook. They want relief from their problems. They want clarity, peace, results. Speak to that. Show them that you see them, that you get it—and then offer your solution.
Know what you’re offering and why it matters.
If your offer is fuzzy, your confidence will be too. Be crystal clear about what you help with, who it’s for, and what results it creates. If you wouldn’t buy it, neither will they.
Let go of the outcome.
Your job isn’t to convince. It’s to invite. Release the pressure to get the “yes” and focus on delivering value in the conversation itself. Ironically, this makes people trust you—and say yes—much more often.
When you try to help everyone, you dilute your power.
Strong sales come from strong positioning.Get specific. Get clear. And don’t be afraid to say, “You know what, I’m probably not the best fit for you.”
That kind of honesty builds respect—and referrals.
Then it’s time to design a process that feels like you.
Not a template. Not a script. A rhythm you can repeat with confidence.
That’s exactly what we help you do inside Freedom Builders:
