Author: The Two Lauras July 23, 2024 Duration: 20:01

Potential client rejecting your proposal got you down? Don’t worry, you might still be able to work with them - just perhaps not in the way you expected! Okay, so they’re not ready for monthly management, or it’s not in their budget right now - what are they ready for? What is in their budget? Today’s episode is diving into how to find out how to flip rejections on their head and make potentially quite good money off the back of them!

In this episode, we’re chatting about:

  • Which rejections we’re talking about when it comes to making money
  • Working out what the client actually needs right now and offering them that instead
  • Our Offer Triangle Framework and where this will fit in
  • Just getting started and why you’re allowed to start with the basics
