What to do When You Have a Fear of Asking to be Paid It's Not About The Money

In this episode on the ‘It’s Not About the Money' podcast (formerly 'In Her Financial Shoes’), I explore the fear of asking to be paid and its impact on financial success.  I share stories of clients who have overcome this fear and achieved significant financial results. 
I emphasise that selling is not about the individual but about helping clients see the certainty in their offers. I discuss the fear of rejection and judgement and encourage you to shift your mindset around the word 'no.' I also highlight the importance of creating certainty in sales and provide tips for effective sales conversations.
Key Takeaways
The fear of asking to be paid can hinder financial success and client attraction. Selling is not about the individual but about helping clients see the certainty in their offers. The fear of rejection and judgement can hold individuals back from asking to be paid. The word 'no' can be a gift and an opportunity for another client to say yes. Creating certainty in sales and listening to clients are key to successful selling. Making it easy for clients to buy and closing financial loops are important for financial success. Repricing and consistency can help improve financial outcomes. Financial success has a ripple effect and can lead to greater impact. Chapters
