Upgrade your sales process in 3 steps
The Black Girl Business Bar
08/24/21 • 16 min
So much of the sales process is nerve-rattling. It's hard enough to get potential clients for most business owners, but it's even harder to standardize the process once you start growing and trying to scale.
Plus, what if you've never been on a sales call before? I've done thousands of sales calls, and there is a TON of advice out there about what you should do, what you should say, and what you shouldn't say.
In this episode, I break down the sales process into three easy steps for new business owners to help simplify everything.
Those steps include:
- The pre-conversation — How you need to prepare your potential clients for the first meeting.
- The sales call — How you structure the call, and how to handle objections.
- The follow-up — What you need to do if your potential client says yes, or "I don't know."

Cultivating confidence
The Black Girl Business Bar
08/10/21 • 19 min
Hey ladies, I've been getting a lot of requests to talk about confidence and why that's important for women, particularly Black women, in business.
In this episode, I talk about some of the ways I worked on my own confidence, how I was able to boost my self-esteem and self-worth by focusing on being honest with myself and having the integrity to follow through on all of the things I set out to do. This is something I'm passionate about and I know it can help others.

Create your first offer in 5 steps
The Black Girl Business Bar
08/17/21 • 19 min
I really wish somebody would've sat me down and walked me through exactly what I needed to do when I started my business. It would've saved me a lot of headache and anxiety if I just knew how to go about finding customers. And when it came time to create my first offer, it would've helped me to know what steps to take to ensure I was solving my customers' problems and building lasting value for my business.
That's what this week's episode is about. I go through the five steps to creating an offer for service-based businesses. Part of this is about building your confidence, doing market research, and finding your target customer's pain points.

Shondell Varcianna on creating content that speaks to your niche
The Black Girl Business Bar
08/31/21 • 49 min
I have the pleasure of chatting with Varci Media founder and CEO Shondell Varcianna about her journey from working in the financial industry to serving financial institutions with her content writing services.
Her story is fascinating because, at one point, her business served a general clientele, but she realized that the general approach was NOT working for her. So she decided to narrow her company's focus. We talk about how she came to make that decision and what it means to really find your niche as a business owner.
Shondell also gives practical tips for online business owners to find and listen to potential customers and clients and how to supercharge your process for finding content ideas.
