This episode we talk about how someone goes from being an art major, to a successful career in sales. We break down what skills crossover between photography and sales. We chat about how to thoughtfully bring your personal life into your LinkedIN profile (and also how displaying her love of the band Phish, landed her a job at LinkedIN).

We also break down what it means to be a pizza bagel from New York and still lead clients with empathy even though as a New Yorker her mode is to move fast!

About the Podcast

Sell By Being Human
We all want to be heard, seen, and understood. This podcast shares stories of how all humans sell just by being great humans.
I believe that all people want to be heard, seen, and understood. But how do we get people to hear, see, and understand us effectively? Salespeople train themselves on techniques to do this but there are people doing it well without the word sales showing up anywhere in their job title or job description. This podcast is designed to help us hone our human skills, understand subtle similarities between non-sales people and salespeople, and show how we can learn from both groups the next time we need to create change and sell by being human.

You will learn from people throughout all walks of life. Nurses, coaches, janitors, event planners, HR executives, and architects. Just to name a few. We'll contrast them with trained sales people to show similarities and differences. There's an art to human connection and sales. We all do it differently and we can all learn from our every day human interactions.

Please contact me and let me know who you see in your life selling by being human! I want to shine a light on them.
