Creating A Safe Space In Sales: On-air coaching call with Jenn Trinidad

Find out how to build trust with uncertain prospects that seem to abandon their interest in moving forward with you. Your very own sales maven, Nikki, is here to offer tips, techniques, and strategies to master your sales conversations. She'll be taking you with her as she gives live coaching advice to a client. Listen to real examples and strategies for getting prospects to complete the sales process on this episode of the Sales Maven Show. Today's episode is an on-air coaching call with a member of the Sales Maven Society, Jenn Trinidad. She is calling in from Honolulu, HI where she operates her digital business. Jenn runs a website called budgetdivas.com, which is a membership site for women interested in budget tips and financial freedom. Her business was inspired by her own journey of paying off $90k of debt in four years, with $41k of the $90k debt being paid in that last year. Jenn uses her expertise to help women manage their finances, and helps women hit goals quicker than expected. Jenn shares her pillars of finance and budgeting to create a good structure for money management. Not only does she help format the organization of finance and budgeting, she also makes a point to work on the mindset around how to interact with money. A key factor she talks about is being aware of the numbers. For example, a client originally predicted that they would complete their debt payment in 2023, and Jenn was able to create a plan that would complete the payment in 2021.  Understandably, Jenn is absolutely confident in the value she provides, but she noticed that some prospects weren't moving past their initial interest in her service. Nikki talks Jenn through how to get prospects through the sales staircase after initiating their curiosity. The conversation needs to focus on asking effective questions that lead prospects to engage with a service, as well as creating safety for prospects so they feel that they can comfortably reveal the most useful information for helping Jenn provide value to the prospect.
