Positioning to Profit

Welcome back to Positioning to Profit, the podcast that helps businesses position themselves for profit. I'm your host, Patty Dominguez, and in today's episode, we have a special guest joining us: Sonia Rodriguez, a business strategist and high ticket sales and marketing expert.

Sonia considers herself a "seer" in business, with the unique ability to identify the gaps in entrepreneurs' businesses and help bridge that gap. She has a 360 vision, seeing the bigger picture of a business, including the goals, gaps, and opportunities. Sonia's expertise lies in guiding her clients towards accelerated growth and impact.

In our conversation, Sonia emphasizes the struggle between seeing the big picture and the little picture in business. Some entrepreneurs get stuck in vision mode, while others solely focus on getting things done without considering the bigger picture. Sonia believes that success lies in finding a balance between the two and making decisions from that perspective.

But that's not all. I also have an exciting announcement to make about a virtual summit I hosted called "The Damn. I Wish Somebody Would Have Told Me That Virtual Summit." The summit featured 32 incredible women entrepreneurs who shared their three best tips for starting a business. Based on the feedback from one of my clients, Rosemary Metal, who found the summit immensely helpful, we've decided to release episodes throughout the summer featuring each guest.

Sonia also shares her personal journey as an entrepreneur, the lessons she's learned along the way, and the importance of understanding your financial numbers. Plus, she emphasizes the role of personal experience in truly grasping the challenges of entrepreneurship.

As always, I encourage you to leave a rating and review for the podcast, as it greatly helps us continue to provide valuable content. And remember, your message matters. So, without further ado, let's dive into this insightful conversation with Sonia Rodriguez and uncover strategies that will position you for profit. Enjoy the episode!

On this episode of Positioning to Profit, host Patty Dominguez interviews Aleasha Bahr, a natural salesperson, about effective sales strategies and determining client fit. Aleasha acknowledges the concerns and fears surrounding spending money and emphasizes the importance of addressing these concerns in an open conversation with prospects. They discuss framing the decision-making process in a way that empowers prospects to evaluate their options and understand their alternative plans. Aleasha believes in telling prospects when they are not a good fit for a product or service, as this builds trust, leads to return customers and referrals, and prevents time and energy drain. They compare the process of determining a fit to dating, emphasizing the need for specific questions and a deep diagnostic process. Aleasha also shares the importance of checking questions, form applications, and pre-framing conversations to filter out non-serious prospects and avoid wasted time.
