How to Brand, Talk Less and Sell More

Reading Time: 2 minutes
Talk Less. Sell more.

Some brands go (in the goal of wanting to sell more) into endless “pitch mode” at the expense of their brands.

Say less things. Sell more.

Shut Up Already. Seriously.

Brands that make this mistake focus on short-term transactions versus the long-term lifecycle of a client relationship, adding value over the long term.

I cover this in detail in this pivotal article I wrote, “The Vital Difference Between Sales and Branding.”

Great brands have a dialog and a conversation.

Trust me. It’s the fleeting brands that only know the pitch and focus only on their side of the discussion, ignoring the other side of the conversation.

This mistake spells disaster in the short term and the long term whether you’re B2B or B2C.

We’ve hit a milestone: Episode 50.

This is a vital video for anyone involved in branding or selling.
