[01:22] Sometimes when we're not happy with our performance, we play small. This prevents us from making the impact we are destined to make. [02:35] We are often our own worst critics which creates a tendency to hold back. [04:09] A story where even super high performers still have imposter syndrome. [05:15] The purpose of this episode is to continue to sell even when your performance is not up to your standards. [06:02] The first thing we need to do is shift our perspective. Recognize the positives and understand that the participants don't know the difference between your best performance and this performance. [07:19] It's important to recognize the things that did go well. [08:42] Be okay with wherever you are. Not everything you do has to be a 10. [09:48] It's not about you and your performance. It's about what the audience took away. [14:52] We have to set aside our own feelings and our own judgment, do our best, and still push offers out. [15:52] We need to learn to follow up without fear. We need to set the self-doubt aside and be willing to follow up. [18:34] Get my free follow-up guide in the Sales Maven Resources section. [20:00] There's a reason I send four or five emails. I get the majority of my buyers on email three and four and a few on five. [22:33] Be careful about making assumptions about what other people's experiences are going to be. [23:46] You can share support by being on camera during meetings and webinars. As a presenter, remain confident even if the audience's cameras are off. [27:11] Don't project your beliefs on the audience and don't hallucinate or read their minds. [28:41] Push through those times when you're not happy with your performance and do a follow-up.   For more actionable sales tips, download the FREE Closing The Sale Ebook.   Find Nikki: Nikki Rausch [email protected] Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | Instagram Sales Maven Society Work With Nikki Discussion To download free Resources from Nikki: www.yoursalesmaven.com/maven    Resources:  Episode 206: How To Stop Sabotaging Your Sales Success
