Ep. 74 Heart based selling (with special guest Andee Hart)
Got a question? Send me a text.
Tired of being told in order to grow your business you must embrace the old school way of selling? Does it make your skin crawl?
Join me as I interview Andee Hart who is the host of The She Sells Differently Podcast. During our conversation, Andee dives into her experience in executive sales and leadership for over 17 years. Now, she guides other female entrepreneurs to redefine their approach to selling, shifting from traditional forceful methods to a more service-oriented mindset.
Andee shares her insights on creating positive customer experiences, transforming the typical sales process from one of desperation and pressure to a space of genuine connection and trust in the quality of products. We explore how this approach can foster long-term relationships with clients and lead to a more fulfilling and successful business journey. Andee challenges the norm, advocating for a more human-centered and value-aligned definition of wealth, moving away from the materialistic "bro selling" tactics that can often alienate rather than engage.
On this podcast we discuss:
- Changing your mindset around selling
- Giving vs. getting energy
- Nonverbal communication
- Having the courage to walk away
- Long term relationships vs. transaction based
