Episode 20: Overcoming Selling Objections with Michelle Terpstra
Today I am talking to Michelle Terpstra. Not so long ago, she was working for a Fortune 500 company and struggling to balance her drive for success and her desire to control her own schedule and lifestyle. Now, instead of running around town sales meeting to sales meeting, she has a booming online business that feels completely in alignment with her financial and lifestyle goals. She built her business quickly using her sales expertise, creativity, and power to connect and convert her ideal clients.
According to all the "gurus," having fun and selling is impossible. However, if you ask the students of the Sales Success Lab, you will find out that this is simply not true. Persuasion, influence, confidence, and leadership can be learned. Once this power is unlocked, you have access to any dream you desire. It is Michelle's mission to help thousands of entrepreneurs master these skills so that they can also grow their businesses with ease, joy, and purpose.
First of all, she talks about overcoming objections in general. Most men and women have a really bad response to sales. They had bad experiences with salespeople in the past and they just don't want to be a part of that transaction anymore.
She is here to tell you that the old way of making sales does not work anymore! Being pushy and forceful may technically 'get the sale' but you will end up with a frustrated and angry customer who will not come back a second time.
Let's learn to make your sales in a more graceful and purposeful way!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
