Deniece,
I must say that I do think that this is one topic that is shared by a lot of people. It is even harder now as people are less personable, and use technology as a shield to protect them from engaging conversationally with others. A lot of people are skeptical of anything that sounds too good to be true although that is what SFI is.
To improve in this area, you can try:
1. Practice speaking to one or two strangers about the weather or other noncommittal issues, and gage the responses.
2. Increase the amounts of people you speak to daily, weekly or monthly.
3. Once you feel willing to continue this exercise even though you did not get the responses you were looking for, that proves that your confidence is building.
4. Engage in discussions with small groups, and then increase the size of the groups if possible.
5. Enroll in any Public speaking courses offered at any adult learning facility.
6. Dedicate yourself to learning the ins and outs of SFI, TripleClicks, and all programs until you feel confident to sell or promote them.
As a business owner who wants to be successful, going beyond the norm to achieve your goal is a small price to pay.
I wish you much success.
