Season 16, Ep. 1

The ONE Word That will Change the Way You Make Proposals Forever


Calling all Copywriters, Agency Owners, Funnel Builders, Ads Strategists, Coaches, and Consultants: Have you ever been asked to send a proposal but were unsure what to send them? This is for you.


Listen in and Uncover The ONE Word That will Change the Way You Make Proposals Forever


One of the biggest questions I get from my students and clients is “Hey Renee, I have this __(potential client)__ asking me __(X, Y or Z)___, what do I offer them?”


Or “Renee, I already chatted with this person and now they want me to send them a proposal, but I am not sure what to send them, what do I send them to make the sale?”


You didn't want to overshoot and you didn't want to lowball...


This happens.


What do you DO about it?


Let’s talk about it.

This is hard won advice I'm sharing after 25+ years selling professionally.

  • 1. No More Fluff: Get Clients Now

    08:58
    Avoid the Fluff & Get Clients NOW!!It's easy to slide down the "rabbit hole" of doing, doing, doing. . .Doing more social postsDoing more to our graphics (or getting new headshots)Doing more edits on our websiteThere is a time and a place for those activities…But NOT if you are wondering where your next client is coming from or if you are struggling to pay the mortgage this month.One day, I bought a book off of Amazon and on the back was a website. The website had me fill out my name and email in exchange for a download that went along with the book. The next few weeks I started getting emails from a coach.This was my first foray into doing business virtually in a global economy.I started going into Facebook groups and connecting with other women business owners. Some were virtual assistants, freelance writers and many were starting their coaching businesses. I got on the phone with a few and was horrified at what I heard. They had beautiful branding and gorgeous websites but they were going out of business.I even tried to hire a few of them but they would talk and talk and talk about themselves and NEVER ask specific questions. They would drone on about what they did but NEVER establish their value. It was straight out of a sales training nightmare. They were smart and great at their work but STARVING because they were trying to live off of referrals. They believed that MORE marketing was the answer. Spoiler alert: it's not.The biggest problem I saw everyone making (those who were complaining that they had no clients or customers) was that they were doing all of the steps OUT OF ORDER.They understood business. They were wicked smart. I kept asking myself "How were they missing this???".Then I started to realize that the online space can play on your worst fears and press on your self-doubt like no other space. With custom-made news feeds that show you exactly what you've expressed interest in, you only see your LACK and it can feel like EVERYONE else has already DONE what you are just setting out to do and ... they are doing it better (or at least it can FEEL that way).It's not your fault if you feel defeated.There is so much PRESSURE to do more, show up more, be more visible that the actual REASON you wanted to start your business in the first place can get lost. You wanted to SHARE. You wanted to SERVE. You wanted to SUPPORT. But all you are getting is exhausted trying to KEEP UP.There IS a better way.You can AVOID all of the fluff and get clients NOW. This week.I shared an example of yet another client who did it AGAIN just this PAST week. This is the drum I have been beating for YEARS!!No list, no website, no problem: get clients now.Take the next step TODAY and grab my free sales traininghttps://www.reneehribar.co/training*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

  • 12. Break Free from Getting Ghosted

    06:41
    Stop getting ghosted...Clients tell me it's the tiny details that they were missing (and beating themselves up for missing) that made the biggest difference.Have you ever thought you were going to make the sale but you didn't?This is what my clients say they did BEFORE learning this:"I spent an hour on the phone showing them all the ways I can help them. They said yes so I spent another hour writing the BEST proposal (sweating the whole time over what to charge) and then sent it . . . only to NEVER hear back from them"WHAT HAPPENED?This is a HUGE problem in the industry (with a pretty simple fix). . .The totally kind and morally aligned "Double D Method to Closing" for big-hearted business owners.DeadlinesandDa' Money (cuz I like to make this FUN)Laugh and learn alongside me as I break it down in 7 minutes right now!Take the next step TODAY and grab my free sales traininghttp://www.ReneeHribar.co/training*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.

  • 7. “Henry Ford” Your Sales Process

    How to “Henry Ford” Your Sales ProcessGrab my free Sales training and START TODAY at http://www.reneehribar.co/trainingIf you are spending more than 30% of your working hours trying to figure out what to post, how to connect with potential clients, connectors or collaborators and creating proposals FAST, you need to consider this.Henry Ford was the epitome of innovation. He did not invent the engine or the car or even the assembly line... what he DID do was improve on the process. We know him from his Model T car that made car ownership accessible to the masses.Did you know there was a Model A, B, C. . . all the way up to "T"?That shows he had the willingness to get things wrong. He had the willingness to keep trying and improving.Henry Ford was an innovator. That is what I am encouraging you to be for your own sales process for your business.In other words:1. Use what you have in front of you (like the content of the businesses you want to connect with)2. Re-use what you have already used (like the interview you did last Winter about productivity)3. Create templates for everything! If you have made it ONCE (an email, a proposal, an invoice, a contract) CREATE a template out of it so that the NEXT time you want to create an email, proposal, invoice or contract, you are not starting from scratch. I live by this motto "I reserve the right to always make this better" this gives me permission to START without it being "PERFECT".By knowing that I will always be seeking to INNOVATE and improve the PROCESS I have MORE time to focus on the PERSON in front of me. Whether it's developing a genuine business relationship or delivering a promised service or product. SYSTEMS cut down TASK time and OPEN MORE TIME for authentic connection and time to be creative!If all of this brought up more questions than answers, we should hang out more!Grab my free Sales training and START TODAY at http://www.reneehribar.co/training*********************************************Renee Hribar has been a sales professional since 1994 in New York.
