Do you have a 'Go Fish' mentality? Do you know that that is? Listen as Nikki shares what she means by this along with ways that you can communicate that will drive sales, counter tips that could cost you sales and actionable advice that you can use to grow your business, all on this episode of The Sales Maven.

As a salesperson, it is your job to make it easy for a person to take the next step with you, not be so vague that they feel like they have to pull the information out of you. Don't make your clients feel like they are playing a game of Go Fish when they are trying to pay you money. Think about how you are communicating with your clients right now; are you being clear in your communications? The more specific you can be, the easier it will be for the client to know what to do next.

Do you ever feel like there is a breakdown in the communication you have with a prospect or a client? Listen as Nikki explains why this might happen and what you can do to reboot the conversation. It's your responsibility to earn someone's business, so be specific, get rid of the vague language, and make it easy for a client to do business with you.

Nikki always gives the best advice, and if you want to grow your business, you need to listen to this episode. Nikki doesn't pull any punches. She will tell you why she believes you are having issues, and it's up to you to see and correct the problems.
