Although Heather helps businesses locally, nationally and internationally to connect with their target markets online (with a specific skill set in Facebook lead generation), her favorite thing is presenting and connecting in person, believing that relationships are life’s most valuable commodity. Teaching and public speaking are some of her favorite things. She’s an active member of the Rockwall Area Chamber of Commerce, is on the Chamber board for the Executive Women’s Alliance, is a member of The American Marketing Association and Master Networks, and she’s a regular contributor to the discussions at the Social Media Breakfast of Dallas.

When she’s not working on her clients’ marketing plans or working on her own business plans, you can find her spending time with her husband on the tennis courts, taking frequent family weekend trips to East Texas or eating peanut M&M’s at the movies.

Marketing Gets You Known, Sale$ Gets You Paid

Many people don’t want to be in sales. They don’t want to pressure or be pressured into asking for money or the close. But, that is the basis of the sales process. What if you were able to be a top producer without having the feeling of being the textbook case of a salesperson? What if all you needed to do was learn how to have a conversation that will make your close a natural part of the process?

Most people confuse marketing and sales. The simple truth is that marketing gets you known and sales gets you paid. While they are two different activities, when they work together… your bottom line will see the results.

What you will learn specifically:

• Communication is Key
• Building Relationships Changes Selling Into Sharing
• Listening Cements The Relationship

Let’s keep it simple and watch what happens!
