That's just the way it is. Whether you are "selling" yourself or your products or someone else's products through you or your website. Selling isn't fun for most people but you don't have to use hard pressure in your face sales tactics as most people think of when the picture selling. Just building a positive name for yourself and your brand will help to sell for you without you actually doing any selling by definition. Be honest and helpful and it will get you far in business.

It has been my experience that people do not like to be sold. However, a good marketing campaign sells them the goods everyday and they never notice. If you have a product you must sell it to earn money. It's the way in which you sell it that either drives your prospect away or closer. I believe in integrity and honesty in your approach and have had many people say that they find this to be a breath of fresh air. Do I want to sell them my products? Absolutely! Will I become a snake oil salesman in order to do so? Never! I am not saying that Frank Kern is a snake oil salesman. Frank is a personality marketer. He is laid back, provides lots of good content and basically makes people like him. Honestly, that's half the battle. If your prospects like you and/or trust you the sales are almost automatic.
