A sales take for each one who wants to close more deals": Most “bad sales calls” aren’t a lead problem. They’re a positioning problem. Because the call doesn’t go sideways when the lead is “low quality.” It goes sideways when the buyer can’t quickly answer: “Is this for me?” “And will it fix my problem?” So the call turns into a polite fog: - “Tell me about what you do…” - “So… who do you usually work with?” - “Interesting. Send me something.” That’s not rejection. That’s confusion. Here’s the reframe: It’s not about getting *more* leads. It’s about using clearer words so the *same* leads can make a clean decision. What most positioning sounds like: “We help growing companies scale.” “We drive revenue.” “We offer end-to-end solutions.” That forces the buyer to do the hard work. What clearer positioning sounds like: - **Who you help:** “VP Sales at B2B SaaS companies, 20–200 people.” - **What you fix:** “Pipeline looks ‘busy’ but deals stall after the first call.” - **How it shows up:** “Reps are active, forecast is hopeful, revenue is late.” - **What changes:** “Deals move forward or disqualify fast.” When you do this, your calls get easier because they become a simple yes/no: “Yes, that’s us.” “No, not our issue.” And both answers are a win. You stop “convincing.” You start sorting. The best closers don’t talk smoother. They talk clearer. What’s one vague line you hear in your market that needs to die?
