The Smart Gets Paid Podcast
Join renowned sales coach for women running consulting businesses, Leah Neaderthal, for a behind-the-scenes look as she helps women solve their biggest sales challenges and start landing higher-paying clients. From her background in marketing -- “definitely not a salesperson” -- she taught herself how to sell and developed a selling methodology that feels comfortable and works. Now she shares that with other women in their consulting businesses. From clearly communicating your value, to comfortably leading a sales process, to pricing your work, getting in front of your ideal business clients, and even confidence and mindset, you’ll listen in on the real, honest conversations with women just like you who are facing, and solving, these challenges. Along the way, you’ll discover that even if you’ve never been a salesperson, you can learn how to land consulting clients, comfortably and confidently, without being salesy.
