Show Notes

It sounds almost impossible to start an online business when you have no email list, no website, no social presence, and no business network but it IS possible and I did it myself. It just starts with a name. This week, episode 24 of Selling for Yourself: a guide for non-sales people Podcast is about how to start an online business from ground zero!

In this episode of The Selling for Yourself Podcast, I’m sharing the importance of building the relationships that will act as the foundation for your online business and actionable steps you can take right now to turn a conversation with one person into a connection, collaboration, or client. The framework I share in this episode includes:

  • Find one person you want to talk to and start a conversation focusing on the similarities between yourselves NOT the differences or the problems you can solve. 
  • Begin with “safe” conversation topics and go deeper from there. 
  • Invite this person to be interviewed by you for a project you’re working on & 3 simple interview questions to get you started. 
  • Use this new relationship as the foundation for building your network. 

There’s a big world out there and lots of people waiting for someone just like you to come along. They just don’t know you exist yet. 

Thank you for listening! Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on selling for yourself and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
