Summary
—>> https://www.askmecoach.com/ Sending a proposal isn’t the problem; losing control after sending it is. When clients say they’re “thinking about it,” what’s really happening is decision drift. Buyers don’t decide in a vacuum, and when experts step back too early, outside opinions fill the gap. This conversation reframes stalled proposals as a role issue, not a pricing or confidence problem, and shows how consultants and service providers can stay in the strategic advisor seat without sounding pushy or salesy. Clear deadlines, better qualifying questions, and a simple two-step path turn hesitation into forward momentum. When you guide the decision instead of waiting on it, deals close faster, and scope creep disappears. Mentioned in this episode: AskMeCoach.com
