In This Episode:

[00:49] We're going to be talking about how to set boundaries in sales conversations, how to redirect and refocus potential clients.

[01:15] When I give language suggestions it doesn't mean it's the only way. It's just to help spur your ideas.

[02:15] What's the ultimate goal? Are boundaries being crossed? Are we focusing on the heart of the matter and making an impact?

[03:18] Have you ever questioned why someone hasn't taken your free advice? Could it be because they didn't pay for it?

[04:01] When people pay, they pay attention. Allow these people to become paying clients.

[05:01] One thing I implemented was 15 minute Spotlight Coaching conversations to allow people to be paying clients on a small scale.

[06:59] Learn language to set boundaries when you feel like you're being taken advantage of or you know that if the client pays there will be more impact.

[08:03] "I'd love to make sure that we have time to dive into what we had planned to go through today." Then redirect the conversation.

[09:40] Story can be a huge time suck.

[12:00] "That sounds like a really interesting story, but let's shift gears because we do have a limited amount of time today and talk about how we might work together to reach our goals."

[13:01] The importance of having a pre-frame for the call. "It's been so great learning about you now let's jump into what we talked about earlier."

[14:17] It's really about setting boundaries. You can change your language depending on how you know the person.

[15:18] "I love our chats, but because we have to talk about our business, maybe we can set up another time to catch up." Keep your boundaries clear.

[16:52] Say everything in a really kind way. Be patient and let the person transition.

[17:27] Use selective amnesia and move on in the conversation.
