Outline of This Episode

– [8:58] The importance of curiosity and staying in the moment

“Sales Mode Brain”

What Diane refers to as “sales mode brain” is not effective. “Sales mode brain” comes into play when you are needy, desperate, obnoxiously confident, or arrogant. Diane tells you how to get out of that space for more effective selling.

Getting Good Clients

Should you take money from anyone willing to give it to you? Diane says you should only take money from someone you want to be “married” to. She shares key strategies for getting to know a prospect before building a relationship.

Honesty is a Good Thing

Even if you are not the best choice for your prospect, or they are not the best client for you, be honest. Diane has the exact script to use in order to turn that “no” into a potential future relationship.
