Welcome back to the ProfitSchool podcast Business Unfiltered with Mercer and Jeff Sauer. Today's topic is Extending the Sales Window.
-
Extending the sales window involves creating multiple opportunities to connect with qualified prospects rather than limiting yourself to a single interaction or offer.
-
Jeff and Mercer discuss how early communication should qualify prospects' interest, intent, and ability before moving to close, treating each step as a mini-sale.
-
When prospects hesitate, successful salespeople step back, address specific objections, and reframe their offering to match the client's needs and comfort level.
-
Strategic follow-up sequences, no-buy surveys, and regular check-ins help maintain relationships with prospects not ready to purchase immediately.
-
Redirecting prospects to more suitable solutions builds trust, even if less profitable, and often leads to stronger long-term client relationships.
-
The duo reminds us to maintain an abundance mindset rather than desperately pursuing every potential sale, focusing instead on creating sustainable client relationships.
