How Sales Go Sideways (It's Usually You)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How Sales Go Sideways (It’s Usually You)
Most sellers think a deal falls apart at the end.
That’s not what actually happens.
In this episode, Marla Koupal breaks down how sales conversations quietly go off track long before a decision is made—and why it often starts with the seller reacting instead of staying present.
When a buyer asks an unexpected question about pricing or mentions other options, most sellers shift their approach, assume meaning, and start explaining. That’s the moment the conversation begins to unravel.
This episode will help you recognize those moments in real time and stay aligned with the buyer instead of getting pulled off course.
If you want to sell without pressure, avoid assumptions, and create conversations that actually lead to decisions—this is for you.
