Description

Today With LuAnn Nigara:


“Maybe” feels polite. Safe. Hopeful. But in sales? It’s a silent killer.


In this episode of Window Treatments for Profit, I break down the 6th Deadly Sales Sin: mistaking vague responses for real opportunities. You’ll learn why “maybe” doesn’t pay the bills, how to stop waiting in limbo, and the exact scripts to lead your client to a clear yes—or an honest no.


If your pipeline is full of “we’ll think about it,” this is your wake-up call.


Listen now and take back your power at the close.
