Izzy’s Seven Steps To Selling Like A Pro…Plus
Tons Of Online Business Sales Tips

Where the rubber meets the road…

Sales. You know, that evil thing capitalists do.

We’ve been known to say the only thing it takes to be in business is to make a sale. Without selling a business is just a hobby or more accurately on its way to extinction.

Inside this episode you’ll learn tips, tricks and techniques for selling–both selling online and offline. Selling offline or at least marketing offline will become a larger percentage of most online businesses in the near future so you might as well learn to do it now.

After this episode you won’t shy away from asking for the sale.

    I think this was my fave show yet for some reason. Izzy, you must stop cutting the shows short! Although, it is good to keep them to a manageable length.

    What was the name of that movie you alluded to? Started with a B. Thanks!

    I’m a HUGE fan of the phone. A lot of internet marketers are leaving it on the table by not putting a big fat phone number at the top of their site. Especially at the beginning of your business, talking to your customers is the best and highest bandwidth way to get information on your market.

    Also, even though my business has 4+ phone numbers or so, I haven’t spoken to a client for over 2 years… so this stuff can be automated.

    My guess is you & Ian will do offline direct response marketing eventually too.

    As for automating the phone, I figured you hadn’t answered it yourself. Many people shy away from the phone when it could be so easy for them to implement and possibly double their business.

    Thanks for adding to the conversation.

    I believe you’ll do offline marketing because you are focused on building a real business and not just looking to “make money” online. I’ve got tons of ideas. We should talk.
