    006 | Jayla Siciliano Tells Us Why You Should Take Emotion Out of the Sales Process

    Welcome to today's episode! I'm excited to introduce you to Jayla Siciliano, the creator of Bon Affair. In today's episode Jayla shares her journey with us from starting out, struggling to find a bottle distributor that would work with her, to living out of a hotel in Michigan for 3 weeks, to finally finding her groove and focusing on ONE big retailer and the online market.

    Believe it or not, the number one thing you will hear most often as an entrepreneur is NO. You've probably tried to avoid hearing NO, as much as possible, and it may even make you feel like a failure. But, Jayla tells our listeners that NO is just part of the process and that you need to quickly learn to remove emotion from the process.

    Jayla also discussed how important building relationships is in business. She believes it is one of the best ways to get connected to people you wouldn't' have met otherwise, and to get people to do favors for you.

    Has an investor, or possibly a customer left you feeling heartbroken because they turned down your service or product? Jayla has you covered in this episode!

    005 | John Lee Dumas Explains Why Asking for Forgiveness is Better than Asking for Permission

    Welcome to today's episode! I'm happy to have John Lee Dumas, the creator of the inspiring podcast, Entrepreneur On Fire. In today's episode John shares with us how he's followed the same philosophy for his entire life, "ask for forgiveness, rather than asking for permission," and how that has helped shape his life.

    John has gone through life hearing A LOT of NO's. It started even before his professional career began, but he quickly learned that for every 10 NO's he received he'd receive 1 YES. So, he turned it into a game, and quickly became one of the top salesmen at his job at John Hancock.

    We all go through life hearing NO's. It might be something we hear from our boss on a regular basis, or it may be something we experience in our business. The NO's may not be a joy to hear, but they are learning experiences. It's important to know that you have the power to turn those NO's into YES's. The key is you need to be willing to learn more about the process.

    Have you ever considered that making that one last phone call, reaching out to one last person, or connecting with one more influencer, could be your next step to a YES? John has you covered in this episode!
