In this conversation, John and Miranda discuss the importance of getting commitments from clients throughout the sales process. They emphasize the need for micro commitments and engagement to keep clients interested and invested. They highlight four key areas where commitments should be obtained: during the role and purpose explanation, after fact finding, during the discussion of the client's why, and before showing options and prices. They also stress the significance of tonality and engagement on the phone to establish credibility and professionalism.
