How To Sell Without Discounts!

Описание: How do you sell value instead of just price? In this episode of The Slow Pitch Podcast, host Rob Jager and guest Jessica Renard of NuSource reveal how to shift from transactional to transformational selling. Learn proven sales strategies to compete on value—not discounts—by uncovering customer pain points, using DISC personality insights, and building stronger, longer-lasting client relationships. Perfect for sales professionals and business owners who want to grow profits without lowering prices.

When customers focus on price, it’s a sign they don’t yet see your value. Today we talk about how to stop competing on price and start selling on value (based on their pain...key point here).

Jessica shares how her company transitioned from a transactional, discount-driven business model to one built on long-term customer relationships. Together, Rob and Jessica unpack the sales strategies, leadership shifts, and mindset changes that help any business—from B2B to small service providers—justify higher pricing and win loyal clients.

They also discuss how to uncover what customers truly care about, how to align your sales process with value-based outcomes, and why understanding buyer personalities (like with DISC) can transform your results. You’ll also hear practical examples of creating VIP experiences, motivating sales teams, and designing offers that prevent your product or service from becoming a commodity.

Whether you’re a sales professional, business owner, or entrepreneur, this episode will help you build a sales process that earns trust, increases retention, and improves profitability—without lowering your prices.
