Never Negotiate With This Person...EVER | Ep. 520

Stop Negotiating With Yourself: Prospect FirstIn this Growth Notes episode, Frazier warns that the one person you should never negotiate with is yourself, because self-negotiation leads to procrastination on essential sales activities like prospecting calls, follow-ups, reconnecting with clients, sending messages, recording video, and creating conversations. He describes the “little attorney” in your head that argues to delay tasks, and explains that once you put off money-making activities you don’t truly catch up; you fall behind as new tasks, problems, and distractions accumulate and create the illusion of productivity through reactive busy work. Frazier emphasizes that important day-to-day work can’t outrank the work that creates future business, comparing prospecting to working out when life is busy. He advises blocking sales time on the calendar, planning the day, and prospecting and building first.
