Last week Brennan Dunn hosted Double Your Freelancing Conference which several of my friends went to and spoke at. Based on what I’ve heard and read about, it was a great conference. Brennan posted his summary and he’s included links to attendee recaps, as well as how to order recordings of the presentations.

Selling can be a tricky subject. For some it comes easily, while for others it’s a struggle. There are thousands of sales books and training material out there but you might find that it doesn’t stick with you. You’re probably missing a mindset that you need to make that work. Blair Enns mentions seven mindsets he sees with business development (sales) in The Sales Jedi Mindset. I can recognize at least five being part of my own sales toolkit I’ve built up over the years.
