September 18, 2025 Sales 401 Series – Part 2: Sales Psychology
One misunderstanding we hear from painting contractors is that sales psychology is just manipulation of the customers. But it’s actually not! It’s understanding the way they’re thinking so we can communicate how to solve their problem or satisfy the emotion they’re after. When you understand want vs. need selling and how to connect with your buyer to speak their language, you will have a much higher success rate in helping your customers achieve their goals.
