Every Bad Client Starts with One Missed Red Flag — #1 Sales Strategist Explains
Manage episode 484914107 series 2285815
The worst deals don’t break you later — they fool you early.
In this episode, sales strategist Kim Orlesky reveals why bad-fit clients slip through your filter, how to recognize red flags before it's too late, and what it really means to sell from a place of power. From walking away from misaligned deals to reframing budget conversations and asserting value without pressure, this conversation is a blueprint for anyone who negotiates, sells, or wants to stop saying yes out of desperation.
You’ll learn:
The hidden “winner’s curse” of closing the wrong deals
How to qualify clients by alignment, not just money
The question to ask that instantly shifts the power dynamic
What most sales pros get wrong about budget
How to hold your price — and your standards
This is the mindset shift that separates burned-out closers from confident negotiators.
