This is the first time we actually sell, and it shouldn’t feel aggressive or pushy at all. If it does, something earlier was skipped. Once an audience is warmed, the backend is clear, and the message is proven, selling to warm traffic becomes the calmest part of the process.
In this episode of Bringing Simplicity Unfiltered, Greta (founder) and Judy (CEO) show how to turn warm traffic into buyers without pressure, fake urgency, or chasing. It’s one of Judy’s favorite topics, because it’s where people who say “I have an awesome product” get to show they can sell it.
People tell Judy, “I sold someone.” Great. Did they enter their credit card? Saying they’ll buy isn’t closing. You haven’t closed until the money is in the account.
By this stage, people aren’t just giving you their name and email. They’re taking real steps, like filling out a book-a-call form. They’ve seen you and they’re more familiar with you. On a recent sales call, it was clear the person knew we do ads. That means the marketing did its job.
But don’t expect warm leads to know everything. Even if your backend shows they’ve opted into 20 lead magnets and watched your webinar, they may not know exactly what you do. What they do know is that they have a problem and you might have the solution. Some trust already exists, so you don’t need to recite your whole resume. Guide them to the solution: ask them to repeat their pain point, then “Tell me more about that. What have you tried before?”
There are other approaches, but if you’re not consistently hitting $10K+ months, add these.
A live masterclass (or webinar or workshop) is the quickest way to build more rapport and trust with all your leads, even ones who registered or watched before. It often takes about three times before someone acts.
A masterclass should educate and reassure, not be an infomercial. You don’t need to gatekeep. One of our clients gives away the number one tip that gets members of his high-ticket program the best return. People usually don’t act on information until they’ve invested anyway. Weave in testimonials so people see real change. Sharing testimonials isn’t slimy. It’s sales as a service, because it might be what helps someone else take action.
A booked call is the quickest way to build rapport live. In the middle of a trust recession, taking real time out of your day to talk to someone will often make them choose you over someone else.
It also takes the masterclass to the next level with personalization. On a masterclass, nine of the 10 tips might not apply to someone, so by the tenth they’ve tuned out, even if that one would have changed everything. On a call, dig into their pain point and whether you can solve it. Offer resources if you have them, and still make the sale. You want them to feel taken care of, not sold to. Buying is what takes care of them, because most of us rarely take action until we’ve paid.
For us, mid-ticket is roughly $2K to $7K, and it usually includes a done-with-you component. Many people only sell courses or high-ticket offers. A mid-ticket offer says, “I’ll work through the roadblocks live with you while you go through the system.” It often works as a downsell on a booked call when someone isn’t ready for your high-ticket offer. Price it accordingly, and clearly state the outcome and the pain point it solves.
Greta’s warning: too many people sell a $500 course instead of their high-ticket offer, and almost nobody finishes courses, so almost nobody ascends from a course. A mid-ticket offer solves part of the problem and builds trust, so going all in on the higher-ticket offer makes sense next.
They work because trust was already established by reach campaigns, high-quality lead magnets, and personalized back-end nurture. People have seen you show up in other ways, so saying yes is easier.
Judy and Greta know these work because they’ve tried them. If you’re stuck and don’t know what to follow, pick one and commit. Leila Hormozi recently put out a challenge to try something for 100 days. People tell Judy, “I tried it.” For how long? A week. How many calls? Two. Or they hosted a masterclass, nobody came, and they didn’t advertise it or post about it daily.
Big brands like Nike, Macy’s, and Alex Hormozi advertise for months to sell one thing. How long do you think you need to advertise, at your size?
Courses are nice passive products. Judy and Greta buy them for their team, and Greta takes some herself. But people pay for implementation, not more information. That’s why mid-ticket and high-ticket offers with live support convert.
People ask, “Am I targeting the right people? Do they understand my offer?” How many sales have you made from 100 sales calls? Have you run 100 masterclasses? Those will show you your message, the objections, and how people actually buy and take action.
Not everyone will buy the first time. Your first masterclass might have no attendees. That’s data, not failure. People can feel “commission breath” when you’re trying to sell them. Give generously. Most people don’t need more information. They need help implementing it.
Use formats that build trust live, like masterclasses and booked calls, focus on their pain point, and treat sales as a service. If it still feels pushy, something earlier, like warm-up or nurture, was likely skipped.
For us, roughly $2K to $7K, usually with a done-with-you component. It’s a strong downsell from high-ticket and a better bridge than a low-cost course.
Longer than you think. Give it something like 100 days, and promote it consistently. A week or two of effort won’t tell you much.
Yes. Most people won’t implement without investing, and generosity builds the trust that leads them to buy.
