128 - Overcoming Buying Objections With Bari Baumgardner

Ever felt "icky" about having a sales conversation or making an offer? Being vulnerable to the pang of rejection or having to ask people to "buy your thing" can feel intimidating… and often when we are presented with buying objections - we can freeze up or feel rejected or stutter and stumble not knowing what to say. In this episode your hosts, Suzi Dafnis and Michelle Falzon introduce you to Bari Baumgardner, one of the world's leading authorities on using live events as a way to grow your sales, your community and your business and she's helped the "who's who" to have sales conversations with HUMANITY that are geared and SERVING rather than SELLING. Bari shares how you can feel GREAT about helping people move forward with you, rather than like a used car salesman pushing your product. This is a MUST-LISTEN episode for anyone who ever sells a product anywhere, not just at live events. You can also get Bari's FREE Online Workshop over at www.liveeventworkshop.com .
