Christine is available to provide sales and marketing consulting to you and your organization. Visit ChristineClifford.com for more information about Christine's services.
Summary: 1. Price conveys quality just as much as anything else. -- If they argue on price then they don't perceive quality. 2. Branding & Status makes a difference - Everything you sell must FEEL high quality from the way you personally dress, to your actual presentation of services and products. 3. Relationship -- Be real, authentic, how they feel about YOU is how they will feel about what you sell. If you can't sell yourself you not only have no shot, but will be hurting your own brand and reputation. Be a quality human being. Be honest, you can't solve every problem and neither can your product. You want to come off as a friend making a recommendation for a product, not a salesperson. If you can't sit on the same side of the table with them then you aren't in the right spot. 4. Be an optimist. Take risks. Do the hard things. Success comes to those to venture into the unknown and take risks.
Hello, Narxfang, You did an outstanding job of summarizing my presentation here. Thank you for watching and all my best to your and your company. Warmest wishes, Christine
This woman is so magnetic, so honest, and what she says it's kind of must-listen. Just found Christine Clifford and what a fullfilling experience. Thank you.
Makes so much sense, OMG! It’s right there in front of you and you don’t see it when selling yourself. It’s all about presentation. It’s what your clients want to see!
Hi Naveed, I am so sorry I missed your comment over two years ago now. I hope that you are finding success and happiness in your life. Warmest wishes, Christine
Hi Isai, thank you so much for taking the time to watch my video, not once but twice! I hope life brings you everything you dream of. Warmest wishes, Christine
This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "tax consultancy service providers" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Charlottenon Property Packtrain - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my cousin got great success with it.
Hi Alison, I am so sorry I missed your comment over two years ago now. I hope life is treating you well, and that you are finding success, love and happiness. Warmest wishes, Christine
I love your analogy of riding along the cliff instead of taking a safer path. Entrepreneurs are really created by simply choosing that small but scary course
Dear Christine, I am so grateful for the amazing information that you share! I am working on rebranding and got stuck. your stories and wisdom help me a great deal. Much love and blessings to you and your family. xoxo
What a sweet note Kim. I am delighted that I have been able to help you from afar. Good luck with your rebranding efforts. Never an easy task! Hugs, Christine
You are more than inspiring! I was lost and looking for the right way to market myself, then I came across your video. I am walking away now with a renewed excitement! Thank you so much Christine! "the difference in this world is in belief"!
Hi Aaron, Thank you so much for writing to me. I am so sorry I missed your comment over a year ago now. My bad! Hope life is treating you well. Cheers, Christine
Hi Ricky, I am so sorry I didn't see your message over four years ago now. I ran in to some health challenges that took me off the map for awhile. Doing great now, and I hope you are as well. Happy holidays! Cheers, Christine
Hi Christine! Though I stumbled across this clip because of the sales aspect, listening to you "connect the dots" for me marks the TRUE essence of a good educator. You took a very "alien" subject for me (sales) and had it "make sense" by relating it to a bigger, more universal concept I'm much more familiar with, being an educator. Thank you for this life lesson for the day. :)
I came for the title. Saw the date it was posted. I was skeptical that this advice would not be relevant in this ever changing world. Read the comment "Some of the best 22 minutes I'll spend this week!" So ironically I paused the video, made a cup of freeze dried coffee and hit the play button. All I can say is, that's the best damn cup of coffee I've drank in a long time! Thank you Christine for this wonderful advice!
Hello, my friend from Colonial Beach News! Your post made me laugh... and grateful. Yes, I am nearing retirement, and this video is old... like me. But I still talk and consult on these very important aspects of sales & marketing and appreciate not only the fact that you watch, but that you commented. Take care! Cheers, Christine
I'm a newbie real estate agent, discovering the path to success. With your help I feel much more confident. I liked you on facebook, pls keep posting! I'm truly thankful. Awesome suit btw! :)
Ur ability to captivate listeners by ur story telling is remarkable! Thank you! Ur message was a powerful reminder. So Thank you! The journey we all walk does take a higher faith which doesn't necessarily mean religious but spiritually, as in "inner self". This video doesn't just delivered a teaching.. It delivers what a high degree of optimism translates too and that's... inspiration . Thank you! Salute!
Thank you for your very kind comments. It is an old video, and I'm now an old lady, but I always appreciate a compliment. Thank you! Warmest wishes, Christine
Christine Clifford you are very welcome. You are NOT an old lady. You’re just classy and beautiful woman. If you were a teenager, I would have called you a “girl.” It was a great and a practical presentation. Communication skills are just as important as looks (how people dress) and you knocked it out of the park. You dressed for success and conveyed your information perfectly fine.
It is interesting how life let's you see just what you need, just when you need it. I was thinking this morning about the most fulfilling times in my working life, and the only times I can recall are times when I took big risks. There's something profound about trusting enough to jump in with both feet before you know exactly how you will land, great presentation.
Hello Jeffrey, I am so sorry that I missed your comment over a year ago now. I hope that you've continued to take those risks, and that your life is successful and prosperous! Warmest wishes, Christine
One of the best RU-vid videos I have watched. Hands down I have learned more here in 22 minutes than I have all week! Delivery of the words was so well done. Loved it. Thank you so much for this. I am a true optimist and I so get this. It made me smile. 😃😄
Hi Deirdre, Thank you so much for your very kind words. I am thrilled that my video has inspired you. Happy holidays, and don't forget to laugh! Warmest wishes, Christine
Hi Gonsalves, Thank you so much for your glowing comment. I am thrilled that my video has inspired and helped you. I hope 2019 turns out to be the best year of your life! Warmest wishes, Christine
Thank you for this Christine. Exactly what I needed to hear today -- and totally unexpected that your video went in that direction - didn't expect it at all, but I'm glad it did. Bless you and thank you again.
Christine Clifford Hi again Christine, just started going through your other videos and this Divorcing Divas is great! Funny too! Please consider me as a speaker for your upcoming September event. This is right up my alley -- I help people clear and heal childhood wounds and unhealthy relationship patterns so they are in a place of true freedom and creation -- rather than choosing a partner that fulfill karma - loveguru (dot) net - Looking forward to hearing from you :)
Hi, Again, thanks for your great comments. If you'd like to send me your email address, I can send you some information about our annual conference. All of our speakers are Sponsors. So it's a "pay to speak" format. But perhaps you'd like to be a Vendor or Sponsor after all. Best wishes, Christine
Christine Clifford Hi! Sure thing. Not exactly what I'm looking for, but I'll take a look and would love to do some work with you - feel like it's guided that we connect. Sending an email through now, thanks. Blaire
Powerful and appreciated. TY. Note to self- must change wardrobe etc.. ie: "White Lab coat with stethoscope". Helps with the image for better psychological results!
Wow! I like your speech, very clear voice, good grammar. English is my second hand language but believe me I can hear you word to word...This speech has changed my life. Keep it up!
Goldmine is what Christine just offered. I repeated the video 3 times so I can fully grasp the wisdom and I was glad to do it. Then, my mind exploded with the best ideas. I am definitively a subscriber and big fan.
Hi Cody, I am so sorry that I missed these comments over two years ago now. I hope this message finds you doing well, and finding all the success you dream of. Warmest wishes, Christine
It’s first time to see video for you by chance, it’s amazing and for sure I suggest it to all my friend. I was looking for this long time. God bless you
I opened RU-vid to test the sound on my desktop. This title caught my attention and I listened/watched. I am in sales and attest to the validity of Christine Clifford's findings. This should be required for anyone who is in sales, especially when the product is intangible!
This is a very smart and awake woman. I really appreciate this rare type of lady. No offense to other great ladies there are just certain qualities I really admire about some women more.
I love it! In mid 07 I was a Terminix pest tech and quit on the spot with no notice to start my own pest control bus. My original goal was to net 10k monthly. I didn't have the proper licensing, equipment, vehicle or capital. What I did have though was optimism. I've surpassed my original goal, and have set larger and evermore challenging goals for my small bus.
Hello Francisco I just finished reading your comment that you left on this video and I'm in a similar situation I was a pest control tech for Viking Pest Control here in New Jersey and I'm in the process of starting my own business Pest Control and if you have a minute or two if I can just ask you a few questions just to get myself in a better situation I would really appreciate it if you can reply back so I can I can email you or something that would be great thank you for your time
Love this!!! The risks in my life have led me across different states, different careers and business opportunities. The losses were never losses...only endings to new beginnings. Each time, I fell it was forward...to a better and stronger me. Thanks for reminding me to see myself even better than I realized.
Thank you so much for your very kind words. And I'm thrilled to see that you have taken risks in your life. They will take you far and teach you much. Good luck! Warmest wishes, Christine
Christine Clifford. Liked, Subscribed and the notification bell is on. And now heading to watch your rest of the video uploads. Thanks for uploading such great content videos.
Thank you so much Mrs. Clifford for this lecture. I'm at a point in my life in which I've taken many risks and have felt fear to whether I should have taken them or not and where might they lead me. Your lecture answered many of my questions and have reassured me that I'm on the right path. Thank you for an exceptional lecture.
Hi Bettina, I am SO sorry I missed your comment three years ago now. I hope you have continued to take risks, and that everything in your life is going well. Warmest wishes, Christine
You're wonderful! I am finally taking the leap from corp america to full time realtor. This is the scariest thing I've done but I am doing it to find the same fulfillment as you have. Watching your videos has not only been comforting but your advice is exactly what I've been looking for. Its honest and a genuine way to connect and help people. Thank you so very much!
Hello, Alex, I am so sorry I missed your amazing comment over a year ago now. My deepest apologies, and hope you're doing well. Warmest wishes, Christine
I have read so much around loa spiritual practice and motivational skills. This has got to be one of if not the best I have ever listened to. Truly inspirational. Thank you. xxx
You are indeed an awesome presenter! Thank you. I'm tired. It's 6am & I have to get up in less than 2 hours. I couldn't stop listening and learning. 'Well worth the sacrifice. btw, I now subscribe to your channel.
Christine, Thank you for noticing my darling Sable. She was a wonderful companion to my bride and me. We got Sable when our youngest daughter went through a divorce. We say she got the kids, he got the house and we got the dog. We could stand to see her put down, so we took her in. We knew Sable when she was young. She came to live with us when she was 4. It didn't take long for her to adopt us into her pack. We became best friends. Up until that time, we were "cat people", but don't tell Sable. Sab was pretty wild and untrained when she came into our lives. We found a trainer, who trained Sab and us. She was a real challenge. After about a year, she became calm and well behaved. She was amazing. My bride, Kay, would take Sab for long walks along a local park along the Shenandoah River. We joked that Sab was our latest piece of exercise equipment. We lost lots of weight during the next 4 years. To make a long story longer, we ended up having to put her to sleep. As you can imagine, it was a very sad day. That was over 2 years ago. We still miss her every day and wish we could have her back. Yet out of that pain, Kay, my bride was inspired to paint her picture. Kay had been an part time artist for many years, while I worked full time. Sab would wait up for me in the evening and we would play and go for long walks on the week ends. Sab had many pack and territorial traits similar to wolves. She looked much like a wolf. Little to my knowledge, soon after saying goodbye to Sab, I would to be laid off and for the next 2 1/2 years, Kay and I have taken the riskier path in life. Based on her relationship with Sable, Kay painted her picture and was drawn into painting wolves, as a way of keeping a connection with her. Now is teaching 3 day wolf pastel workshops out of our home, that we converted into an art gallery / studio. She has wanted to teach art for years, but it seemed I would continue to work full time for an undetermined number of years with no end in sight. With my lay off situation, she is now teaching every month and I'm her sales and marketing guy. Something that I have always wanted to do. This journey has brought us to a "sense of well being". We have learned to play the game of courage. This was born out of a sense of desperation and has led us to success beyond your wildest dreams. We still struggle with our bills and debt, but we are experiencing a freedom that has brought us much joy and fulfillment. I shared your video with Kay and she was also blown away. You have touched our hearts and changed our lives. We are grateful. Kay has a web site at www.kaywitt.com, if you get a chance to check out her work. No pressure, just peace and grace to you. With Our Deepest Sense of Gratitude, Steve and Kay Witt Strasburg, VA
Hi Stephen, I am so so sorry I didn't see this detailed comment from you over four years ago now. As you know, about that time I was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time. It took three years and seven operations, but I'm now cancer-free and life is grand. I hope for you, as well. Happy holidays, and don't forget to laugh! Warmest wishes, Christine
@@ChristineClifford Please look up Jason Vale and his testimony here on RU-vid. He's survived 5 bouts of Cancer. Also Google: ApricotsFromGod regarding using Bitter Apricot Seeds Glad to hear of your recent recovery. 🎉
@@ChristineClifford You're very welcome. You might want to research Lugol's Iodine & also Vitamin D3 You're a lovely person, Christine. So glad that your recovered and able to enjoy your health and life again. 🙏
Bravo Christine you answered a comment after 1 year just viewed your presentation and it just resonated so well with me.You are truly in tune with yourself and content that you present! Bravo!
what a great seminar, her stories shows how people allow themselves to be manipulated by others because they are lying to themselves. The book she was talking about at the end also proves a point I've believed, those with the courage to go out and fight for their dream will most likely succeed those who sit on their hands waiting for someone to hand it to them will never because they never tried, then get bitter towards those who do demanding out of fairness they share it with them.
Hi Sonny, what a sweet comment, thank you. I'm now retired from Professional Speaking, but still doing some consulting and writing. Nice to know people are still interested. Take care, and be safe! Cheers, Christine
