In This Episode:

[00:43] Today is all about converting fence-sitters into buyers.

[01:41] A straggler or someone who has expressed interest and has had some type of communication with you but they're not closing.

[02:24] Common reasons that stragglers hesitate include logistical conflicts, financial concerns, or lack of clarity about the value of the program.

[03:14] Don't make assumptions about what's causing them to be a fence-sitter. Don't project your own limiting beliefs.

[04:49] A creative solution for a logistical objective. Recognize that the person can't attend the live retreat and offer a VIP day instead, like a private one-on-one.

[06:48] Showing flexibility can be the way to seal the deal.

[07:11] Financial concerns. Sometimes, there's nothing you can do. Find ways to get creative. Offer a payment program or some other type of solution.

[09:24] You could also offer some type of scholarship, but the recipient could do something extra. A scholarship shows engagement and sets the culture.

[11:57] Don't assume the potential client is a no. Follow up. Forward the original message and change the subject line to "did you see this" and ask if this is something they would consider.

[13:15] "What would it take for this to work for you?"

[14:03] You could also give options or a menu. Asking if there's something else will give them a moment to gain clarity.

[15:53] Send a closing loop message. Following up with you one last time just to see if there's anything you would like to move forward with.
