In this episode, we’re taking it back to one of the biggest milestones in your business journey...that very first sale.

We share our own experiences (and the nerves that came with them!), and break down what really matters when you’re trying to get your first, or next, paying client.

This is for you if:

You’ve been quietly working behind the scenes but the sales aren’t landing
You’re overwhelmed with tech, tools, or 'must-haves'
You feel like you’ve done everything but still hear crickets

You’ll hear:

Why your audience is more important than your logo
The 3 key questions to ask if you're not selling (and what to do about it)
What role your messaging and content really play in making sales
Why visibility matters and how to build connection, not just followers
The tech you actually need to take payment and track your income
Why overcomplicating = missed sales (and what to simplify instead)

Plus, we talk about how people buy from people and why showing up as you (yes, really) is a huge part of selling with confidence.

🛠️ Practical Takeaway:

If you’re stuck at 'no sales' go back to basics:
💬 Are you speaking to the right people?
🎯 Are you solving a real problem or desire?
💡 Are you making it easy for someone to buy?

Simplify the steps. Focus on connection. And just keep showing up.
