Speed wins deals — but only if you do it right.
If leads are slipping through the cracks, it's probably not your pitch — it’s your response time.
In this episode of Sell Like You, I’m diving into one of the simplest but most deadly advantages in sales: responsiveness.
Not “get-it-done-in-5-minutes” fast, but intentional speed — the kind that builds trust, manages expectations, and positions you as someone who gets sh*t done.
You’ll learn:
Why fast follow-up doesn’t mean sloppy follow-up
How to write quick, personalised responses that don’t feel rushed
The psychology of silence — and how it erodes trust even when you’re doing great work
The exact phrases I use when I need more time — without losing momentum
The free AI tool that saves me hours a week and keeps leads warm
What to automate, what to personalise, and how to tell the difference
Why quiet clients may actually be at risk of churn
This isn’t about being first to reply — it’s about showing up with substance, fast.
If your pipeline’s leaking, this episode will show you where speed is your sales superpower — and how to use it to close more, churn less, and build trust from the first touch.
