What Winning Sales Calls Have in Common: It's Not the Pitch
Pitching harder and hearing less back? This episode is for the business owner who wants sales calls that feel like a real conversation and end in a confident yes.
Co-host Rebecca Kaufman, Amanda's sister and a former member of her team, puts Amanda in the hot seat on the skill underneath every winning sales call: listening. Amanda, founder of Clairvenu, gets into how real-world feedback rewrote the story she told herself about being seen, the gap between prediction and observation, what a sales call is actually for, the point where client trust is most likely to break, and the worst sales message ever.
In this episode, you will learn:
🙈 How real feedback quieted Amanda's fear of being seen and of selling
🧠 Prediction versus observation, and how to listen for what isn't said
🤝 Sales as raising awareness so buyers can make an empowered, informed decision
🔍 Spotting the patterns across your sales conversations
