25. Women IN Sales
Lindsey Nelson
Senior Sales & Sales Strategy Executive
YOU are the President of YOU
Be-YOU-ti-FULL
26. Be – YOU – ti – FULL
BE:
Curious & Eager to Learn
Authentic & Unassuming
Ask the questions?
Go there: What bad thing happen if things continue “as is” vs.
what bad thing happen as we change?
What good things happen when we believe? *decisions
How do we get started? Who doesn’t go for the close?
Assertive & Unapologetic
Competitive & Carefree
YOUR competition is YOUR yesterdays BEST,
that’s the only measure that matters, learn the power to push YOU
Fearless & Faith-filled
Fail forward: 2 inches of greatness is better than ZERO
Where there’s fear, get Inspired
When it’s never been done, it may be YOUR turn to be
the pioneer….Do YOU want to pave the way?
Smart & Strategic
Sexy gets the lunch date, smart gets the long term business strategic partnership
Be “who you are”
27. Who are YOU?
Sales Professional
Business Person
Game Changer
Problem Solver
Solutions Provider
Competitor
Winner
Leader
Mentor
Coach
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daughter
Sister
Friend
Wife
Partner
Mother
Advocate
What you DO doesn’t define you..WHO you ARE does…
Be – YOU – ti – FULL
28. So what’s up with the “ti”?
“ti” can mean many things to many people: Let’s explore!
Time to Investigate? (who am I and who do I want to BE?)
Investigate YOU?
Who are you? What matters? What do you want? What does
tomorrow? 5 yrs. from now and 10+ look like in your life?
Be REAL with YOU.
Time to Implement? (Time to Roll!)
How does tomorrow look?
What’s working, how do I feed it?
What’s not working, how do I change it? (skill vs. will)
How does next look 5 miles ahead or 5-10 yrs. ahead and ….
AM I BUILDING THE BLOCKS I WANT TO GROW?
To BE who I am to BE….because…I AM THE PRESIDENT OF ME!
Be – YOU – ti – FULL
29. How to find your…….FULL
Once you bring your BE, then understand YOU, find your ability with
“ti”, you’re on to FULL….(it’s the gas in your tank girl!)
Be relentless in investing your energy in what is available to make IT
HAPPEN
YOU ARE THE PRESIDENT OF YOU!
Any company is lucky to have you, invest in beating your
‘yesterdays best’, be true to yourself and look long term
IT’S YOUR WORLD!....How do YOU want to change theirs?
Sales is a platform to get you there…PRESS THE GAS!!!!
QUESTIONS?
Be – YOU – ti – FULL
