Introverts Are The Best Sales People? With Matthew Pollard   Welcome to episode 36 of The Marketing Umbrella with Itamar Shafir. This week Itamar sits down with Matthew Pollard and they discuss his amazing insights into sales (and just how one should communicate themselves to others in business) and what exactly the introvert advantage is in sales, but also how extroverts can just as easily learn these skills. It’s amazing, he really breaks down sales and branding in a novel way that’ll make you rethink how you speak about yourself and your business.   Matthew Pollard is an internationally-recognized consultant, speaker, blogger, author, mentor, coach, and serial entrepreneur with five multi-million dollar business success stories under his belt, all before the age of 30. He is the founder and CEO of Rapid Growth, LLC, dedicated to achieving maximum ROI for businesses of all sizes. Though his client list includes multiple Fortune 500 companies, his real passion is helping small business owners end the overwhelm, eliminate the stress and guesswork, and get on a clear path to Rapid Growth. Called “the real deal” by Forbes, his methods have transformed over 3500 businesses to date.   Here is what to expect on this week’s show: ·        How Matt started 5 multimillion dollar businesses and how he came to begin helping others grow their businesses as well. ·        How Matt was able to take in lessons on sales and increase his success rate, all while being highly introverted and not being able to read quickly. ·        Where the inspiration for writing about the advantages of being an introvert came from. ·        Tips for the processes and education that one (especially introverts) can take on to become better at sales. ·        Tips for not being seen as a commodity and for sidestepping the initial battles that often bog down sales reps that are having problems. ·        The power of having a differentiated and unified message for selling your self, your product or your service. ·        The role of emotional intelligence and how introverts or extroverts can either learn this skill or foster it within themselves for success in business. ·        How should one go about product positioning?   Links: https://matthewpollard.com/ Introvertsedge.com   Connect with Matt: Twitter:  https://twitter.com/MatthewPollard_ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MatthewPollardSpeaker LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewpollardspeaker/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matthewpollardspeaker/ Learn more about your ad choices.
