006 | Jayla Siciliano Tells Us Why You Should Take Emotion Out of the Sales Process Welcome to today’s episode! I’m excited to introduce you to Jayla Siciliano, the creator of Bon Affair. In today’s episode Jayla shares her journey with us from starting out, struggling to find a bottle distributor that would work with her, to living out of a hotel in Michigan for 3 weeks, to finally finding her groove and focusing on ONE big retailer and the online market. Believe it or not, the number one thing you will hear most often as an entrepreneur is NO. You’ve probably tried to avoid hearing NO, as much as possible, and it may even make you feel like a failure. But, Jayla tells our listeners that NO is just part of the process and that you need to quickly learn to remove emotion from the process. Jayla also discussed how important building relationships is in business. She believes it is one of the best ways to get connected to people you wouldn't’ have met otherwise, and to get people to do favors for you. Has an investor, or possibly a customer left you feeling heartbroken because they turned down your service or product? Jayla has you covered in this episode!

006 | Jayla Siciliano Tells Us Why You Should Take Emotion Out of the Sales Process

Jayla Siciliano – Bon Affair You would never imagine that this nice, and sweet lady would be so bold, but what may have landed her a spot on the hit TV show Shark Tank, was the idea to lead with, “We have fucking bubbles” as her headline or attention-getter in her application video that she sent in.  It was just enough to get the much needed attention she needed, and then to land a $150,000 investment from Mark Cuban. Jayla started a wine business based on her own needs and likes.  After noticing that others also wanted some of her concoction, she thought she might have found a business worth pursuing. Jayla was having a hard time keeping up with the big boys when she worked at Burton.  With the problem solved, she then had her jock guy friends asking for a her spritzer.  It was at that point that she knew she might just have something. While Jayla did come from corporate America, she had been looking for just the right thing to go start.  She had attempted a few time, but nothing stuck.  Until this.   Jayla fought had in the tank, and even had received four NOs from the other sharks before getting the one yes that mattered. Mark Cuban stepped up, offered her exactly what she had asked for, and invested into Bon Affair, taking a 35% stake in the company.  She was just grateful for getting the opportunity, and now it is off to the races.  She knows that, that was just the beginning, and she is pressing hard to grow her company.  She is not in Costco, as Mr. Wonderful had suggested, but is selling in Whole Foods, and other retailers with plans to expand across the nation. If you would like to try Bon Affair, Jayla can ship it to most states across the US.  Here is a link to the Shark Tank Special.  If you are interested in viewing Jayla on Shark Tank, I have posted the video down below.  For more information on Jayla and Bon Affair, go to their website at www.BonAffair.com   Items Covered 00:50 – Introducing Jayla Siciliano, business owner. 01:10 – Getting Naked Questions for Jayla 05:28 – Putting the idea into a bottle 06:30 – Jayla talks about her product 07:21 – Who makes the wine? 07:40 – How the formula came up 09:20 – Jayla shares the next morning experiences of drinking a bottle of her product and the others 10:48 – Product distribution coverage and shipping 11:49 – Jayla talks about what she learned from previous companies 14:22 – When Jayla decided to go to Shark Tank 15:55 – What she sent to Shark Tank 17:43 – Jayla talks about her journey with Shark Tank 21:00 – Jayla talks about what it was like after the show aired 22:28 – Jayla talks about her experience during the show 23:35 – What advice Jayla followed from Mark 27:25 – Work relationship with Mark Cuban and Shark Tank 30:47 – Jayla talks about her investors 31:58 – Role change since the show
