ANECDOTE

Bad Car Sales Experience

  • Casey shares a bad car-buying experience at a Kia dealership that felt very pressured and icky.
  • Despite having the power as buyer, the pushy sales approach lost the sale.
INSIGHT

Seller to Buyer Mindset Shift

  • Moving from seller to buyer shifts the sales energy from desperation to confident selection.
  • This shift attracts better clients who want a partner, not a desperate vendor.
ADVICE

Build Financial Comfort First

  • Build financial comfort (e.g., $20K/month) before becoming a buyer to avoid desperation in sales.
  • This creates leverage to choose clients and projects that excite you.
