#224: Why Your High Sales Conversion Rate Is Actually A BAD Thing


Listen Later

Did you know that closing too many clients can be a bad thing?

I know it sounds completely backwards, but a high sales conversion rate (70%+) is usually a sign of an unhealthy business.

In episode 224 of the 6 Figure Creative Podcast, I break down the two reasons why a high sales conversion rate is a bad thing, and what two actions you can take to build a happier, healthier freelance business.

In this episode you’ll discover:

  • Why "winning" too many clients is a bad thing
  • The ideal close rate for your sales process
  • What to do if your close rate is too high
  • Avoiding the scarcity mindset of wanting to win every client
  • Sales leads vs. marketing leads - and why they are important
  • When to raise your rates
