Description

A lot of times, when we look for advice from our mentors, coaches, and leaders about the right things to say to a client who is interested, almost there, but not quite. What if you can hear the mentor's side of that conversation as it happens? 

In this episode of What's Working Now? Katie presents another real life example of a recorded live coaching session with Sara Allred. They talk about Sara's client and how to address client hesitation and objection. These are recordings from Katie's side of the conversation via a walkie talkie app (Voxer). 

 
Key Takeaways from this episode:

1. What is this episode for, and how do we use it in real life?
2. Notes for client session:

•  Identifying the approach and creating a deadline.
•   Help the client identify the direction they want to take
•  Help the client figure out who is the right fit for them.
• Help define what's holding the client's decision.
• Demonstrate non-neediness/non-desperation by giving support

Supporting the research
Acknowledging the fact that there are competitors
Stand in confidence of your specialization

• Present what it means for the clients to get their service.

Something outside of work that has meaning and significance.

• Share a case study or client testimonial
• Go for the ask:

If everything checks out, when would you like to get started? 

• Don't sell: Identify their problem and help them solve that problem, and determine if you are moving forward or moving on.
