  • Buyer-First Selling—Ditch the Info-Dump

    Buyer-First Selling—Ditch the Info-Dump
    Aug 14 2025
    If your pitch needs a decoder, you’re losing the sale 😵‍💫.

    On this episode of The Advisor, Lisa Urbanski sits down with solar-sales pro & coach Luke Jorgenson as he breaks down the worst bad sales tactics—overselling, jargon dumps, and talking past the buyer—and shows you how to win with simplicity, listening, and a clear framework.

    Keep it human, keep it short, keep it about the client. 🎯

    You’ll learn how to:

    🧹 Ditch the info-dump: Say less, mean more; clarity > complexity.
    👂 Listen > lecture: Pivot statements into smart questions and embrace silence.
    🤝 Stay client-focused: Lead with outcomes, not features; build trust fast.
    🧭 Use a framework: Apply Luke’s W Method / Smooth Selling to guide any convo.
    🪞 Be authentic: Stop “performing” sales; sell like yourself and close more.

    Press PLAY to turn talk into trust—and trust into closed deals—with a simple, client-first sales framework.
