Update: Monday Q&A will be moving to Patreon in June! All existing Q&A episodes will still remain free and available on whatever platform you use but future episodes will only be available through a monthly subscription of $4. Then, as the Patreon membership grows, I will begin only answering questions from Patreon members. This move is not meant to be a "cash grab" from my audience. It's simply to support the continued production of the show. Producing three episodes per week is time consuming and expensive. A simple $4/mo subscription for just one of our weekly segments will help the show to continue!
How do you use Patreon? Follow these three steps to continue listening to our Monday Q&A: 1) Visit patreon.com/persuasionschool ; 2) Sign up; 3) Stream our Q&A episode via Patreon's site, their mobile app, or you can copy and paste the audio feed into your favorite podcast streaming platform!
The question for today's Q&A:
"How do you not come across as needy when you’re hustling for meetings and opportunities to pitch people? I’m talking about using cold calls/cold emails/door knocking to get in the door. I feel like if I come across as needy it just cheapens the “product” even though I know it’s prestigious and desirable."
Great question! If you've been in sales for more than 3 hours, you've experienced this feeling. If you're not in sales but you've found yourself in a slump - unable to land any "wins" lately - you know this feeling as well!
In today's episode, I provide 3 main tips for either overcoming neediness or preventing yourself from feeling that way in the first place.
