It’s uncomfortable to talk about money, but if you don’t, you can limit how far you can go. How do you bring up the price conversation without feeling petty? Should you let the client have a deal just this one time? What happens if you don’t bring up budget early enough?
In this video, Chris talks to Cynthia Kane on the mentality you should have when debating on whether or not you should talk to your client about the budget. Instead of thinking of all the negative possibilities, focus on all of the positive outcomes and how your client will have more trust in you after saying so. Cynthia Kane is a certified meditation and mindfulness instructor dedicated to helping men and women change their communication routines so they feel in control of their words and understood at home and at work.
