James Halsey
President, Atlantic Benefits Corp.This is the first book I’ve encountered on mindsets that succeeds in applying them to a specific discipline that just so happens to be a struggle for many: Selling.

In The Serving Mindset, Farnoosh masterfully walks us through how to rewrite the stories we tell ourselves around selling, enabling us to grow our businesses beyond what we previously imagined.
Jeff Brown
Creator and host of the Read to Lead PodcastFarnoosh nails it when she explains the difference between the scarcity mindset and the abundance mindset and how the former makes you want to sell while the latter enables you to serve with selling as a natural outcome! I loved The Serving Mindset, and can’t wait to put it to use in my business.
Margalit Grunberger
ACC, ICF-Certified CoachFrom The Serving Mindset, one of my key takeaways was that sales can be an outcome, not a process. Farnoosh suggests shifting away from conducting a sales process, and instead focus on serving each potential client by understanding their needs throughout each prospecting interaction. Sales as an outcome will occur naturally as a result of this serving process, either directly when the prospect’s understood need matches up with your offerings, or indirectly when the delighted prospect has a better-matching future need or provides referrals. Brock clearly describes strategies to help adjust our thoughts (mindsets) so that the serving process becomes our default mode of interaction when dealing with prospects or anyone else in our business sphere.
In The Serving Mindset, Farnoosh encourages readers to establish an emotional connection with potential clients through interactions with an authentic intent to serve. Throughout the book, she demonstrates this authentic serving communication style by creating a connection with the reader through her kind words, encouraging phrases, and familiar speaking (writing) style.
In The Serving Mindset, Farnoosh guides readers through five essential mindset shifts whose simplicity belies their value to a growing business leader. Although these mindset shifts may require much practice to truly master, Brock makes them simple to understand and easy to start implementing, while demonstrating the value of continuous incremental improvement in each area. In return, she asks only that her readers have an open mind and a willingness to learn and try something new, which in itself is a refreshing approach to business and life.
Dominic Germana
Founder and Chief Engineer at Impact Embedded, LLCThis book isn’t just about selling, it’s about how to view selling and business and even yourself in a whole new way that actually works in this ever-changing world where businesses built on old, limiting beliefs, based on greed and profit at any cost, are disintegrating. Farnoosh is my favorite kind of coach – the kind that doesn’t hold back and really kicks your butt until you get it. She manages to break down so many beliefs and rebuild them with more useful ones, I found myself having a ton of aha moments about selling, my business, and even general boundaries just by reading the book. Selling truly is service. Those of us with valuable gifts to bring to the world, need to sell in order to deliver those gifts. And it doesn’t have to be sleazy or slimy. So, unless you’re among the very few who are totally and completely comfortable selling their own work, you need to read this book. Now.

Author, Transformational Coach, MelodyFletcher.comIn The Serving Mindset, Farnoosh Brock provides a refreshingly honest and inspiring approach to the frustrating, misunderstood profession of sales. She simply, lovingly gives her readers an entirely new prism through which to grow their business. Farnoosh dusts off the misperception of sales as a “dirty business” and provides a new way of thinking and acting to get and keep lifetime customers.
Leslie E. Crisci
Principal, Spoken Success LLCThe Serving Mindset reminds me of its author: Smart, articulate, and wonderfully direct about exactly how to sell with love. My top takeaway is to “insist on a commitment that matches the level of investment”; it’s fascinating to realize that raising your prices can be a profound act of generosity. I also love the idea that confidence is not a switch, but a ladder; this book will help you step up several rungs.
Caroline Garnet McGraw
Author, Speaker, CoachAn entrepreneur such as myself can feel absolutely trapped in poverty by the perceived barrier of the dreaded SALES. I was trying to figure it all out when I came across Farnoosh Brock’s new book, The Serving Mindset, a roadmap to doing business the way I’d always envisioned- serving, not selling. Thank you, Farnoosh, for this lovely and powerful book. It’s exactly what I need to move my business forward with integrity and have fun doing it!
Sally Morgan
Sally Morgan VoiceIn my opinion, The Serving Mindset subtlety extracts the differences between an 80’s mindset to sales and a present day view. The 80’s took in the hard sell, the hard-earned bonuses, the schmoozing to gain the clients’ attention and the ‘solicitation’ that often included an unsavory pitch. Although these aspects of sales still exist, the approach is and should be very different. Both the client and the service provider don’t respond to those tactics and beliefs anymore. The Serving Mindset helps us find the “heartbeat of your business.” In other words, how your “thinking determines your selling.” The time has come to approach sales without limitations or uncomfortable stereotypes and this book provides truth and tools that can be applied immediately. Enjoy and happy serving!
