Unexpected Subconscious Ways People Sabotage Their Sales

Author: Aleasha Bahr February 22, 2024 Duration: 12:21
Is there a lack of excitement from prospects - or moving forward - in your sales conversations?  A lot of time this is due to sneaky subconscious communication patterns we fall into that were programmed into us growing up.  There are a few notorious phrases that show up in ALL my client conversations before working together.  They erode confidence and trust without the seller realizing it and once they’re adjusted - they make a HUGE difference in conversion rates.  Listen in to this episode to discover:  The common rhetorical questions that result in HUGE missed opportunities to uncover valuable information  Unnecessary filler words that communicate a lack of confidence to your buyer and cause a conversation to end in lots of objections or - worse - “maybe, let me think about it.”  The biggest positioning mistake I see in sales conversations - and what to say instead.
