Episode Overview
In today’s episode, Gina and Rachel discuss the importance of preparation and education. Educating your customers and clients on the process of what they want to buy from you can get you closer to the sale.
Prepare to get back to basics and take a stance of humility rather than frustration. You don’t know what you don’t know and neither do they. Treating others with empathy and becoming an educator will make you a rock star in the client’s mind.
Education is power. Information is power. If people understand better, then the whole sales process can go more smoothly.
