Have you ever said to yourself...

• Why don't I have more online sales?
• Is there something wrong with my products? Do people just not like what I do?
• Why are other business posting photos of tons of orders being shipped out - but not me? What am I doing wrong?

It can be sooooo frustrating when you know you have a great product and you feel like you're doing ALL THE THINGS but you're not getting the amount of online sales you think you could, or should, be getting.

Today I'm bringing on Susan Bradley from The Social Sales Girl to to talk about the "why don't I have more online sales?" issue we both hear from our clients & members all the time. 

We're going to get you some answers.

You will LOVE this episode.
