When to Walk Away from a Sale

There are many times when it is appropriate to walk away from a sale. Don’t accept business unless you can handle it properly. Do not sell your services if you are not 100 percent sure that you can satisfy your client’s needs. Never perform a service if you feel that the client won’t receive sufficient value for their money. Lastly, never give away business just to get your foot in the door because you may come to resent the client at a later point.
