Event description

Can selling be viewed as spiritual practice?

I not only believe that it can, I assert that embracing it is absolutely necessary as we solopreneurs (pre-)pave the way for a bold, new way of doing business in the world.

Join me in this late-afternoon workshop, where together we will discuss:

  • What spirituality has to do with selling and why you should care
  • Why the time is NOW to debunk the Used Car Salesman Myth in order to move boldly forward in the "New Economy"
  • What Rapunzel and the common crab have in common with sales professionals
  • How Spirituality and Personal Magnetism are two sides of the same coin (or maybe the same side of the same coin!) and why you need to embrace both
  • The benefits to you and to your clients when you commit to embracing selling as a spiritual practice
After 9 months away from Bellingham (following just shy of 14 years living there!), I am super-excited to spend quality time connecting and sharing with all of you on-the-move, forward-thinking sales professionals.

See you there!

    Tshombe, I just saw your email and this event. Yay. So looking forward to seeing you.

    Thanks for the invite, Tshombe. I wish I could be two places at once! I start a new position as an advertising consultant at the New Age Retailer magazine on Nov. 2, full time! I am excited. Referrals appreciated to folks who make a product that they want to sell to New Age stores around N. America. Blessings! M

    Lori! I wondered if you'd be in Seattle on Tuesday. I'm super-glad to see you, too, and can't wait to get your thoughts on the subject of selling and spirituality.

    Meredith, I owe you an email! So sorry that I'll miss you, but what an awesome new job you're beginning! Can't wait to hear all about it.

    Ellen! It's been AGES. It will be wonderful to reconnect.

    You'll be preaching to the choir with me; love to hear your thoughts on the subject!

    This sounds like exactly what I need!!! I have RSVP'd but will have to make sure I will have kiddo arrangements for after school to get there. I will most definately be present if childcare allows! Cheers, Kelly Lynch Ring

    Dear Tshombe, Thank you for offering this, right up my alley, but I will be with a client. Please consider offering again. All the best to you. Genevieve

    Maureen: Sorry we will miss you! I didn't think about offering notes on the website.....great idea! This is quite an exciting topic, so there probably will be a great discussion right here on the event page :-)

    Hi Marcy: I always loved choir :-)

    Kelly, it will be great to meet and share with you. I hope you can make it. If you believe your child is old enough, feel free to bring her/him.

    We'll miss you Genevieve! I will be visiting Bellingham again soon, so I'll look forward to connecting with you at the next event.

    Hi Judyth, can't wait to meet you in person :-)

    Hi Hilde, I'm happy to know this topic resonates with you and very much look forward to meeting you on Tuesday.

    Looking forward to this event - this is a topic about which I am especially passionate. Holding the intention that I will gain so many good insights from this event.

  • Tshombe Brown
    Posted by Tshombe Brown, Portland, Oregon | 3 weeks ago

    Julia, what a fabulous intention! I already love your energy. Very much looking forward to sharing and connecting and growing together around this very important subject.

    Tshombe, That is a very generous offer but I have "3" children!

  • Tshombe Brown
    Posted by Tshombe Brown, Portland, Oregon | 3 weeks ago

    Hi Penny, Delighted you will join us!

    You know your kids better than I do, but you should know 3 is my favorite number :-) (But I do know that energy of children may be distracting to others.....I'm almost 40 years old and MY energy still can be distracting to others!)

  • Kelly Lynch Ring
    Posted by Kelly Lynch Ring, La Conner, Washington | 3 weeks ago

    Tshombe, Yes I do & that's why they aren't coming. They are big fun, have great humor, party material~yes, but NOT MEETING MATERIAL!!! ;)

    Enjoyed so much having my intention and expectations exceeded by this event - I left feeling connected to other kindred entrepreneurs, informed, inspired, and energized! Thank you, Tshombe, for so expressing yourself so fully with all of us.

  • Wenty Hill
    Posted by Wenty Hill, Bellingham, Washington | 3 weeks ago

    What a terrific class this was! Learning about how the crab needs to be vunerable to grow was soo powerful. Tshombe, you asked me to list the name of an access to powerful selling - "Attracting Perfect Customers" by Stacey Hall & Jan Borgniez. Also, they send out great daily tips from their website at: www.perfectcustomers.com

  • Kelly Lynch Ring
    Posted by Kelly Lynch Ring, La Conner, Washington | 3 weeks ago

    Tshombe, Fantastic! Perfect Class, Perfect Time!

    Thank you Tshombe for coming to Bellingham and facilitating this event. I especially liked when you mentioned that we are all one of a kind and the only true competition is with ourselves. What a great group we had, all giving and receiving. It makes me feel like if we were all in the same business there would be no way to fail. Thank you also to Mike at Exit Realty for hosting this event.

    Tshombe, From comments I can see this was a wonderful event and I'm delighted to see you plan to offer it again. I was out of town for the last couple of days and would have loved to have attended. Bringing a spiritual approach to sales is so-o-o empowering! Planning to catch you next time.
