Stop Missing Buying Signals: How to Confidently Follow Up Without Fear of Rejection


Listen Later

Have you ever noticed a buying signal but held back, unsure if you should act on it?

Today’s episode is all about recognizing and following up on buying signals—even in those unexpected, non-traditional settings—without that fear of rejection holding you back. 

Nikki dives into why this skill is so essential for growing your client base and shares insights gained over years of coaching and even writing a book on the topic.

This episode stems from a recent coaching session where Nikki saw, once again, the power of acting on buying signals to convert interest into clients. 

She walks us through two main reasons we often hesitate and miss these cues, plus some of the internal hurdles that might keep us from reaching out. 

Nikki also highlights why ignoring these signals can unintentionally convey that you’re not interested in a client’s business.

By learning to act confidently, you’re letting potential clients know, “I’d be honored to work with you.” Otherwise, they may create their own stories, assuming you’re not interested or think they can’t afford your services.

Tune in to gain Nikki’s top tips for recognizing buying signals and following up effectively. This episode will help you connect with prospects and grow your business naturally—without fear or hesitation.
