Farnoosh Brock challenges business owners, sales leaders and service professionals to rethink their mindset and their approach to selling. Through storytelling, case studies, and engaging talks, she inspires them to drop their sales agendas and favor deep trust over and true listening over pushy sales tactics and hurried conversations. Her keynotes are engaging, inspiring and insightful and her workshops always leave the audiences with practical shifts in daily business that can be implemented right away.
Farnoosh’s approach is radical and unorthodox in that she recommends you stop selling period. She teaches you how to achieve your goals by having your prospect’s highest interest at heart in the entire process using her book The Serving Mindset.
Cold calling, manipulative scripts, and other pushy sales tactics work well, which is why they are being taught in sales trainings across the globe. Farnoosh argues that there is a better and more humane way to win in business and to win big.
It is by putting people first.
When you do that, the relationships you build drive your business.

There are five key principles in The Serving Mindset that I bring to my speaking:
Principle 1: You are not selling. You are serving.
You will learn that by shifting your lens from selling to serving with this one reminder, how you will re-think your strategy, energy, and approach in the conversation.
Principle 2: Low prices can hurt your business.
As a professional in your field, you’ll see that charging low prices for your services can be a detriment to you and your clients. It is not “generous”; it is damaging, even if counter-intuitive and you’ll learn to command premium prices to work with you.
Principle 3: Serving is not the same as pleasing.
Stop pleasing your prospects. Building deep trust comes from having the courage and the skill to the truth in the right language to your prospect so that they can see your genuine desire to help them, not sell them.
Principle 4: Your sales agenda is holding you back.
You can drop your sales agenda and get a lot further. I help your potential clients without “being taken advantage of”, without the fear to over-give or overstep your own boundaries, by learning to lead the conversation every single time.
Principle 5: Objections in the sales conversation are your golden opportunity.
The self-serving part of you may feel rejected or awkward but you’ll learn to embrace them and probe further with permission to build a deeper trust yet.
