For Real: Life, Leadership, & Unlearning

When you're pitching your services to potential clients, are you using Luxury Language? Or are you using Discount Dialect?

Today, Quinn Conyers tells us the difference, and how strategic word choice can make pitches irresistible.  She also introduces the concept of a "verbal business card" that captivates potential clients - as long as you can articulate your value clearly.

Tune in to learn about tailoring pitches to different audiences and the significance of continuous improvement in pitching strategies for booking the couples that will grow your business.

Quinn Conyers is a Keynote Speaker, Corporate Event Emcee, and Pitch Sales Trainer.

What is For Real: Life, Leadership, & Unlearning?

For Real is a top 1% podcast for high-achievers who look successful on paper but feel like they’re one group text away from burning it all down. Hosted by Megan Gillikin - serial entrepreneur, business coach, keynote speaker, and recovering people pleaser - this show explores burnout, boundaries, identity shifts, and the brave act of unlearning who you thought you had to be.

With unfiltered conversations, “I thought it was just me” moments, and just enough humor to keep it from feeling like group therapy, For Real is your permission slip to evolve.

Formerly Weddings for Real - and glow-ups look good on us.
