GM to the Top 1% ☕
There was a deal in my territory last year that I had been working around for three months.
Not working on. Working around.
Every time I got close to the real conversation, something pulled me away from it. Another stakeholder to manage. Another competing priority. Another reason to postpone the hard discussion.
The deal was worth $1.1M. The real conversation I was avoiding was about a risk the customer had raised in month one that I had never properly addressed.
I wasn't pushing harder. I was just moving around the thing that needed to be faced.
🔑 THE REFRAME
The instinct when a deal stalls is to add more. More follow-up. More proof points. More urgency. More value.
But sometimes the deal isn't stalling because you haven't added enough. It's stalling because something is in the way and you haven't removed it.
A product concern that was never directly addressed. A relationship that's fraying and hasn't been acknowledged. A competing internal priority that your champion hasn't named because you haven't asked directly.
The deal doesn't need more water. It needs the rock moved.
🤖 THE AI PROMPT THAT CHANGED THE CONVERSATION
I used a prompt to prepare for the conversation I'd been avoiding. Here's what it looked like:
"I have a $1.1M enterprise deal that has been stalling for 3 months. The customer raised a concern about [specific risk] in month one and I have not directly addressed it. Help me: 1) structure a direct conversation that acknowledges the concern without defensiveness, 2) identify what the customer most needs to hear from me right now, 3) draft a 3-minute opening for a call that leads with the hard thing first."
What came back was a framework I could actually use. The opening it generated was sharper than what I would have drafted on my own, and it forced me to think through the conversation from the customer's perspective before I picked up the phone.
The deal closed six weeks later.
This is what I call a Deal Unblocking prompt — and it's one of 22 in the Stalled Deals chapter of the 500 AI Sales Prompts collection.
The full chapter covers: why deals stall at each stage, how to diagnose the real blocker, how to re-engage a champion who's gone quiet, and how to have the conversations most reps postpone until it's too late.

💡 THE PRINCIPLE
The best salespeople I've ever competed against had one habit in common.
They ran toward the hard conversation instead of around it.
Not aggressively. Not urgently. Calmly and directly.
They named the thing in the room that everyone else was pretending wasn't there. And the moment they did, the energy in the deal shifted.
Buyers don't need you to be fearless. They need you to be honest.
And they can tell, in the first 60 seconds of a call, whether you came to push or whether you came to help.
✅ YOUR HOMEWORK
Look at your top stalled deal right now.
What's the one conversation you've been working around instead of having?
Schedule it this week. Lead with the hard thing first. The deal will either move or you'll finally know why it can't.
Both outcomes are better than what you have now.
❓ QUESTION OF THE DAY
What's the conversation you've been avoiding in your most important deal right now?
