I Have a Money Mental Block – Here’s How To Get Past It

Sales podcast ep 46 Money Mental Block The Slow Pitch

We all have mental blocks but for salespeople, a MONEY mental block is very difficult to deal with. Learning how to get past it is something we talk about in this episode. Sales is 100% mental in approach, in processing, and in doing. Why not learn a little about how to get past it?

If you struggle with money during your sales meetings or you are hesitant to charge more because you feel like you’re not worth that much, you’re not alone. A LOT of people feel that way. Sometimes its because they feel like the product or service they’re selling isn’t worth as much as it’s priced (especially when working for another company). Other times, it’s personal…it’s that feeling that you’re not worth as much as you should be charging.

In this episode, we talk about that money mental block and how to get past it.
