Episode #409: The Silent Seller by Jai Verma
The Silent Seller Hello Reader. What if the secret to selling isn’t saying more… but saying less? In the latest episode of the podcast, we’re diving into The Silent Seller: Growing Your Business Without the Noise by Jai Verma. This book sparked some big reflective moments, like the myth that “louder = better,” and why trust in business isn’t built in the noise, but in the pauses. We also share our favorite new mantra: Be the library, not the billboard. You need to listen to know where we are...

This week's Page Turner Hi Reader. We’ve been talking about The Silent Seller, and this week, I want to turn the page toward something that the book implied but didn’t really say outright: What it actually feels like to grow your business quietly.

Because building a business quietly means trusting yourself more than you’re...

READ POSTWhy Quiet Businesses Stand Out
This week's Page Turner Hello Reader. The world is loud—online marketing especially. That’s why businesses that practice quiet selling stand out. One of my favorite lines from this week’s episode of Success Through Community is this: Be the library, not the billboard.” A billboard shouts at you, then disappears in your rearview mirror. A library, on the other hand, invites you in, makes you feel at home, and keeps you coming back. What would it look like to build your business like a library...

This week's Page Turner Hello Reader. Have you ever felt like the business world is yelling at you? More posts, more launches, more noise.In this week’s episode of Success Through Community, we explored J. Verma’s The Silent Seller—a book that flips that script. The biggest takeaway?
