There’s a shift happening in the online space.

And I love it.

People are fed up with the overly pushy, false promises, hype-y sales tactics that have (unfortunately) become the norm over the past several years in the online space.

And now people are showing how over it they are by choosing to invest in course creators and mentors who, in addition to being an expert, are real and authentic.

Experts who aren’t going to get all “used car sales-y” (nothing against used car sales people) when they are selling their programs.

Nobody likes being sold to, right?

And that’s especially true if you have a course or coaching program that’s a bigger investment, say, $2K or more.

People are often going to need a bit more information and to learn more before making a purchase decision.

If you’re selling a “high ticket” program, I definitely recommend getting on a call with people to discuss whether they’re a right fit for your program and vice-versa.

For example, in order to even be considered for my Accelerator coaching program, you need to apply and then jump on Zoom with either my team or me.

If you’re not getting on calls with people, by the way, it’s a great way to make it easier to welcome more people into your program.

It’s such a simple thing to do, get on Zoom with someone, yet so few people do it.

Calls are so effective for a couple reasons:
You get to determine whether the person who is interested in your course or program is a right fit


And they get to determine whether you are right for them, to help them make a decision one way or the other.

Whether you are already doing “sales calls” for your higher investment offer or are now considering starting to do them…

Here are a couple things to do to help you be more successful in your calls:
Listen more than you talk.

We all love to hear ourselves talk, but this isn’t about you it’s about the person considering your program.

When you take more time to listen to their challenges and struggles and what they’re wanting to accomplish, you can (gasp) tailor the call to their specific concerns and how you can uniquely help them.


Make your offer with confidence.

If you’re not confident in your own program or deliver the offer to join your program with confidence, people are going to see right through it and they’re aren’t going to invest in what you have.

If you get results for people, own the fact that you’re the s*%t (because you are) and deliver your call with confidence.

Selling your higher investment course or program doesn’t have to be so scary or hard.

It’s a skill that’s learned, and can be learned quickly.

And it can be one of the most important skills you have as a business owner.
