Besides telling people about it and social media, I was not considering myself a sales person. However, in different ways I had to sell as anyone else. I have learned to listen to peoples suggestions (Prospecting), My fear in selling my baked goods is that I will pressure people. However, I am also solving a problem. This is not a problem that people thinks they have, but do. As an entrepreneur, my job is to find out what people should want and give it to them. Quality of baked goods are a luxury that make selling them difficult yet still possible to do as a honest salesperson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"http:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6801 lazyload\" width=\"191\" height=\"191\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image.png 714w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/gccwebsites.com\/startupsales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/image-624x624.png 624w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 191px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 191\/191;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I don&#8217;t want anyone ever to feel pressured to make a purchase so I swing to the opposite side of the pendulum frequently. However, engaging people in conversation and speaking to them about my products can be opening doors for realizing their longing for quality baked goods. To ovoid any type of pressure, I would just let the quality of my good to speak for itself, yet I now see the importance of using conversation to reveal problems which my baking can solve. As scones and macarons at a coffee shop are just a luxury of life and not a necessity, the problem which leads to their purchase is a lack of eating food with inherent beauty in it. When I communicate their worthwhile value, I am offering a solution to their problem. And thus, I will be moving people to part with their resources in ways which adds value to their lives. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting my senior year of high school, I began a business called The Rolling Pin, and immediately I was a salesperson, not just a baker.
