Podcasts about First Meeting

You nailed the first step and got the meeting - now what? Most salespeople squander this critical opportunity by running a tired "Discovery Meeting" that serves only them.   Sales differentiation expert and contrarian, Lee Salz, is back as a guest for a third time to expose why the old ways are fundamentally broken and reveal the Consultation Mindset that must replace them.   Based on his new book, The First Meeting Differentiator, Lee shares a hard-hitting, practical framework for success.   Inside this episode, you will learn to kill your ego-centric "discovery" script, understand and actively combat the "Forgetting Curve," and leverage "Empathetic Expertise" to engage emotion (not just logic) in order to drive action.   Lee details the single most important question you must ask at the very end of the meeting to lock in the next steps. If you're tired of sending information only to be ghosted, this episode is the essential blueprint for creating genuine meaningful value that makes prospects want to partner with you.   In This Episode, We Discuss:   The conversation kicks off with a look at The Necessary Death of Discovery Meetings, revealing exactly why the typical focus on "what I need to ask" and "what I need to tell them" is an egocentric, value-less approach for the prospect.   This leads directly into The Doctor Analogy, showing how shifting to a Consultation Mindset ensures the client gains meaningful value - making the entire interaction worth their time, regardless of whether they ultimately buy your product.   Lee then delivers his Sales Contrarian Manifesto, arguing that "Sales is a numbers game" is the worst advice ever and explaining precisely why you should limit your prospecting to ensure you can personalise every interaction, valuing quality over quantity.   Following this, we look at how to Stop Suffering from the Sales EKG Effect, identifying the danger of believing "you're only as good as your last sale" and outlining the forward-looking focus you must have instead.   Next, Lee dives into the critical strategy of engaging both the Head & Heart through Empathetic Expertise, revealing how even the legal system uses emotion to drive decisions, and sharing a simple method for arousing your client's feelings to ensure the deal doesn't "fizzle out."   This emotional engagement is key to combatting The Forgetting Curve, as Lee explains how to use powerful stories, rather than boring features and benefits, to ensure your client remembers more than six minutes of your hour-long meeting.   As the conversation wraps up, Lee discusses The ONLY acceptable ending to a first meeting, detailing how to confidently close the consultation by asking the partner-focused question: "How did we do today?" and then immediately scheduling the next interaction.   The episode concludes by highlighting the crucial mental shift between the Sales Process vs. Buying Process, an insight that will make your entire career easier and more effective.   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Sales Differentiation 02:56 The Importance of the First Meeting 06:05 Challenging Traditional Sales Mindsets 08:53 The Consultation Mindset vs. Discovery Meetings 11:59 Understanding Value in Sales 15:00 Empathetic Expertise in Sales 18:14 The Power of Storytelling in Sales 20:58 Closing the Meeting Effectively 23:59 The Buying Process vs. Sales Process   Links and Resources   Download Chapter 1 (Free!): Get Lee's first chapter of The First Meeting Differentiator: www.firstmeetingbook.com   Download the Tip Sheet (Free!): Grab the guide on 10 Ways to Provide Meaningful Value in your first meeting:  www.meaningfulvalue.com   Lee's Website: Learn more about Lee and his work:  https://salesarchitects.com   The Book: The First Meeting Differentiator by Lee Salz is available wherever you purchase your books.   Connect with Lee LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leesalz/   Connect with Fred LinkedIn: https://linktr.ee/fredcopestake   Take the Collaborative Selling Scorecard https://collaborativeselling.scoreapp.com/   Watch this episode on YouTube: https://bit.ly/SalesTodayPodcast   If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and share with a colleague

Episode 97 addresses one of Mike's hot-button topics:  structuring and conducting effective early-stage sales calls. As he often bemoans when leading workshops, salespeople have to work so stinking hard today to secure an initial meeting with a target prospect, and then they show up and miss the mark by conducting completely ineffective meetings. If your (or your team's) sales calls could use a boost, dive into this compelling interview with sales differentiation expert, Lee Salz, who crafted a fantastic resource titled “The First Meeting Differentiator.”  Lee doesn't hold back, declaring that traditional discovery meetings must die because buyers no longer tolerate one-sided sales interrogations that serve the seller and provide no value to them!  After listening you'll understand why Mike boldly declared in his front cover endorsement, “I cannot think of a salesperson, regardless of tenure or industry, who wouldn't experience a transformative breakthrough from implementing the powerful approach outlined in The First Meeting Differentiator!”  Here's to more effective first meetings and to MORE NEW SALES!   RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The First Meeting Differentiator ___________________________________________ This episode is sponsored by Pursuit Sales Solutions. If you are looking for help adding A-player talent to your team, contact Mike's friends at pursuitsalessolutions.com/weinberg

In our 168th episode of Kitces & Carl, Michael Kitces and client communication expert Carl Richards discuss whether it's more effective to dive deep in the first client meeting or to focus on the immediate issue and reserve the more emotional conversations for future sessions.

For this episode of Sell With Authority we're zeroing in on something every agency needs — trust at scale. Not vanity metrics. Not louder messaging in an already crowded feed. Real credibility — earned in public — where your right-fit clients are watching, judging, and deciding whether you're the expert worth hiring. The noise isn't going away. And if you've been putting in the work — creating content, showing up on the right channels, following all the authority-building advice — but your pipeline still feels sluggish or unpredictable, you might be stuck in what we call “yelling in a crowded arena.” And that's exactly why today's conversation matters. According to Edelman's 2025 Trust Barometer, nearly 70% of buyers say they've made a purchasing decision based on what they saw in public forums — reviews, comments, even how companies respond. Your agency's reputation, and your clients' reputations, are being shaped long before any discovery call gets booked. Your authority position isn't just your content — it's how you show up in conversations that are already happening online. What if you could help your agency — and your right-fit clients — show up more consistently, more authentically, and with more trust, without burning out your team? That's why I'm excited to introduce today's guest George Swetlitz, co-founder of RightResponse AI. George isn't just another SaaS founder chasing trends. He knows how to lead teams, implement systems, and grow by solving real problems — repeatably. His mission now is giving agencies a way to scale review response, build trust across platforms, and mine authentic insight — all without sacrificing the human touch. If you're looking for a smarter way to earn authority… If you want to build trust before that first meeting is even on the calendar… And if you're curious how AI can actually help you do more with less — this conversation with George is one you don't want to miss. What you will learn in this episode:  Why your authority position is decided before you ever get a meeting The moment when reviews and responses become the “make or break” for customer conversion A behind-the-scenes look at big AI vs. little AI How reviews, competitor analysis, and the “recency effect” can future-proof your authority in pitches and client retention Quantitative strategies to use reviews as data Why your website isn't the center of your reputation universe How to step into a sales pitch armed with hard data about a prospective client's competitive landscape Resources: Website: https://www.rightresponseai.com/ LinkedIn Personal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-swetlitz-7b43812/ LinkedIn Business: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rightresponse-inc/

In AB Advisor Institute's “Masterclass on Pricing” we propose that advisors can confidently charge a premium fee for their services if they do change their approach to the first few meetings with the client. We recommend that they slow down, complete a thorough Discovery and Fact-Finding process before establishing the price of the services and provide impactful experiences for the prospective client that intentionally build trust. In this deep-dive conversation Ken and Scott explore a step-by-step conversation that an advisor can have with a client in the very first meeting that creates a unique impact and leads to a more intimate and successful process of Discovery, Fact-Finding and Close.

First Meeting With an Investor Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. After a number of calls with a prospective investor, there comes the first meeting in person. Here are some key steps in running that meeting: Introduce yourself and your team. Show the market you are pursuing. Present your solution. Show your sales process and how it works. Explain your go-to-market strategy. List the milestones you plan to achieve with the funds raised. Define the fundraising status, including the amount, terms, and how much has been raised so far. Make the presentation a collaborative effort, taking questions along the way to ensure everyone is tracking with you. Answer questions directly and to the point.  If the question begins with How many or How much then the answer should be a number. If the question begins with When, then the answer is a time or date. Stay on topic and avoid long, meandering stories. Finally, come prepared knowing your numbers. Consider these points when preparing for your investor meeting.   Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.
