“I’m a firm believer in what you put out comes back to you tenfold. So you need to lead with that integrity. I think another misconception about sales is that it’s a pitch and not a conversation, and a lot of people are still doing that, right?” - Allison Davis
If you’re in a business, the ability to sell your product and services is absolutely essential. Why is it then that selling to others can seem to be so hard to do? Today’s Brave By Design guest believes that the old way of doing sales is just that, old, and that’s it time for a brand new approach.
With 15 years in the fast-evolving publishing industry, Allison Davis has vast experience in digital marketing, strategic partnerships and event sponsorship across a wide variety of business verticals. Her contributions have elevated the revenue of companies like National Geographic, Time Out North America and Gabrielle Bernstein, Inc. Allison has worked with leading brands like Google, Pepperidge Farm, American Express and Goldman Sachs. She holds a B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communications from St. Michael’s College and a certificate in Organizational and Executive Coaching from New York University. Allison loves learning, travel, plus-size fashion and public speaking — and she penned an advice column for more than seven years in Seven Days Newspaper, one of the nation’s leading alternative newsweeklies.
If you are a passionate entrepreneur and mission-driven business owner looking to make sales conversations more natural, easier and 100% you, then you’ll want to hear what Allison has to share about the selling process in this episode.
