Should You Give Unpaid Consulting?

“Where’s the free line?” Have you ever had this thought or heard this saying? Or, have you ever wondered, how much information should I give my prospect without a paid engagement?

On this episode of The Bill Caskey Podcast, Bill discusses how to give enough away to provide value but not enough to where you won’t get paid.

Pressure Is For Wimps!

“The higher pressure you are with your clients, the more you will sell.”

This couldn’t be more wrong, yet it is so commonly taught and thought these days. Pressure to up-sell, pressure to close the deal, pressure to sell more. More more more! But, as the title states, pressure is for wimps and there is a better way.

On this episode of The Bill Caskey Podcast, Bill gives you 3 better ways to help your clients and you might just sell more because of it.

Shifting Your Mind From Limited To Unlimited

On this week’s Bill Caskey Podcast, I am on the road. But that won’t stop from getting this podcast to you!

This topic from a recent call I had with my 2X Mastermind Group and one of the members was talking about how his territory was too large for him to get to everyone and he needed help.

I gave him some advice that I think really shocked him and that was he needed to shift his mind and action from his limited physical self to an unlimited DIGITAL self. He needed to start producing content online for his clients and prospects.

Maybe it’s time for you to do the same! I’ll give you some ways to get started right away.

Should You Have a Personal Brand – And Where Do You Begin?

Recently I was interviewed by Sarah Lynn Wallace founder of @thisisherexchange. She is an up-and-coming social media star who seeks out experts on sales, marketing and social. She and I did about a 30-minute discussion that ran the gamut from ‘should I have a personal brand?’ to ‘how should I think about it?’ and we discussed ‘how do I begin to build it?’

We put some clips of the interview up on the platforms, but here is the entire interview. It’s about 30 minutes, so grab a beverage and enjoy!
