All Selling Aside with Alex Mandossian | "Seeding Through Storytelling is the 'New' Selling!"

Which comes first, the story or the statement? When you’re trying to implement ethical influence into your sales process, the best way to start is with a story. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but that is exactly how I start each and every one of my episodes.

When you’re looking to sell your products or services, it’s not the head of your customer that you’re trying to win. Instead, you’re trying to win their hearts. What’s the best way to do this? By telling a story that has your client or customer demanding to work with you.

When you create a movement you create a community of members who are highly engaged with you and amongst themselves. Creating a movement is significantly more lucrative than finding a market because of that engagement. I’m sharing everything you need to know about the elements of a movement, why they outperform markets, and how you can monetize them.

Despite being completely down and out after a failed business venture that was financed by my family, my love of learning was the key to my healing. I was depressed and felt like a complete failure, but I knew that I could learn and overcome. The teaching of Nightingale-Conant became my lifeline.

It’s the year 2012 and I’m in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia after a 5-Day Guerilla Business Intensive event. During this event, like so many others, I noticed the difference between people who took action and changed their lives and those who stayed safe. What I was contemplating however was what the distinction was between them.

For many people in the world, not just entrepreneurs, but human beings in general, there is a constant need to be more productive… but what does that mean? Better yet, why do we work so hard to be productive, but not necessarily effective?

The concept of H2H or human to human selling was introduced to me at the Traffic and Conversion Summit in 2017. Ryan Deiss, a former mentee turned mentor, was speaking on the power of understanding the humanity of business. 

When you’re selling anything, you’re selling an emotion. When something goes wrong, it’s due to a human failing. When a sale goes right, it’s because of a human connection.

So many times we get caught up in whether a company is primarily B2B, B2C, etc… and we forget that all sales are human to human interactions. Would you rather purchase a high-end product or service from a machine or from a human who has been in your shoes and understands the solution? 

Never forget that caring is the competitive advantage of the 21st century. In an ever more disconnected world, showing your followers, customers, and clients that you care is imperative. Listen in as I share:

  • Why your business model is not about B2B, B2C, B2G… it’s H2H.
  • Why living into H2H business modality accelerates your profits. 
  • Why H2H focus is the key to uncover motivated buyer patterns.

So, what processes in your business need a more human touch?
