Why Closing Deals is Overrated—Just Sell the Calendar Instead!

Sales Training. Close It Now!

In this episode, Sam Wakefield shakes up conventional sales wisdom by introducing a concept that will keep your pipeline moving, even when you can't close the deal on the spot. Sam dives into the BAMFAM strategy (Book a Meeting From a Meeting), a game-changing approach that ensures you never leave a homeowner interaction without a next step in place.

Key Takeaways:

• Sell the Calendar: Learn why your real goal should be to book the next meeting, even if the homeowner isn’t ready to commit to a project yet.
• BAMFAM Method: Sam explains how the BAMFAM technique keeps the sales conversation alive and builds trust with homeowners by always setting up a follow-up.
• The Psychology of Appointment Setting: Understand how keeping the momentum with scheduled meetings can wear down sales resistance and help homeowners feel more comfortable with their buying decisions.
• Overcoming Objections: Tips on handling the most common objections when trying to schedule that next meeting.

Why It Matters:

Sales aren't always about closing the deal immediately. Sometimes, the most valuable thing you can leave with is a future appointment. This episode will teach you how to ensure no interaction with a homeowner is wasted, and how to convert indecision into scheduled progress.
