#74: How to Ask for the Sale Without Sounding Pushy

Believing in what you sell is one thing. Asking someone to pay for it is another. When it's time to talk price, follow up, or close the deal, everything starts to feel awkward. So you wing it, avoid the hard questions, and hope the customer decides on their own. But hope is not a sales strategy. What if selling could feel less like pressure and more like helping someone cross the finish line?

 

In this week's episode, Donald Miller talks with Jonny Holsten, CEO of Bridge Selling and author of Fix Your Broken Sales Calls. Jonny explains why so many sales conversations fall apart and shows you how to guide buyers through a simple "bridge" from pain to purchase. You'll learn how to ask better questions, qualify without sounding rude, present the right solution, and close the sale without the cringe factor. Listen in to learn how to make sales feel clear, helpful, and a lot less awkward.
