You ever notice how easy it is to avoid the sales stuff that actually moves your business forward? Not because you're not working but because the follow-ups, DMs, and asks keep getting pushed behind other tasks? That’s why we meet for The Sales Lab every Thursday night! It's a focused work session with coaching at the end: Here’s the format: 🕐 7:00–7:10 — Drop your goal pick one sales task. Say it in the chat. That’s your focus 🕐 7:10–8:00 — Work sprint - You’re working quietly. I’m in the chat if you need support 🕐 8:00–8:30 — Open Q&A Ask your questions. Get unstuck. Fix what’s slowing you down No pressure. No pitch. Just movement One task. One win. Every week. Zoom link’s in the calendar Let me know below if you're attending 👇🏽

Where did this go wrong?

Someone reached out and I felt like he had a decent opening so I engaged in dialogue. I love a good sales pitch and I am a buyer if it makes sense. I felt he was doing well building rapport, but then it went completely left. Can you tell where it went wrong?

Hmmm… it looks like they started out curious about a mutual connection, but then shifted straight into their own goal without asking anything about you or your business. It seems the questions should’ve come first, they should've waited for your answers, and then shown genuine interest before attempting a pitch. They also started “educating” you without checking whether you even needed that, and kept asking questions even after you said you already have a community. It really seems like they didn’t do enough research...were they trying to be your sales coach? It seems like he was working from an outline or script or something and he never asked the three questions-lol. I don’t know a lot about sales, but based on this approach, you probably could’ve turned the tables and pitched coaching them 'cause… 👀 Maybe they're just starting out...
