Unlock the "secret sauce" of consistent closes: tie-downs (aka micro-agreements). In this episode, we unpack how small, intentional yeses throughout your presentation create momentum, uncover misunderstandings early, and lead to a natural close—not a hard close.
What you'll learn
Why micro-agreements work: The psychology of agreement and Brian Tracy's law of incremental commitment.
Where to use them: Rapport/CORE, stakes & urgency, education/presentation, budget framing, and the close.
How to deliver them: Tone, timing, the power of the pause, and why consistency beats complexity.
Real examples you can steal today:
"That makes sense so far, right?"
"You'd want this in place for your family, wouldn't you?"
"Affordability is a priority for you, isn't it?"
"If we find a plan that fits your budget and protects [NAMEs], you'd at least want to apply, right?"
Analogies you'll remember
Thermometer: keep "checking the temperature" so nothing goes cold.
Tent tie-downs / trailer straps: secure each section so the whole sale doesn't blow away.
Trail guide: move the fast, middle, and new learners together—everyone arrives at the summit.
Try this challenge Add one simple tie-down to every section of your script this week and track them. Watch your confidence (and closes) climb.
If this helped, subscribe, drop a comment with your favorite tie-down, and share with a teammate who needs more natural closes.
