How to Turn Online Inquiries into Paid Clients (How to Make More Money Through Inquiries)
In one of my coaching sessions with a business owner, after reviewing what has been going on in his business in the last 6 months, I told him "You don't have a sales problem, you have an inquiry conversion problem."
I developed this strategy to convert inquiries into paid clients after that call with the client.
So follow me, and you will learn at least 10 ways to convert dm or face to face inquiries into paid clients.
Every day, someone asks about your service or product…
But they don’t pay. They disappear.
They “will think about it.”
Maybe you have been wondering, why is it that I get so many inquiries but few buyers. Well, let me solve that problem for you. Remember to come and collect my bank details and drop a thank you lol (smiles)
If you can’t convert inquiries, your business won’t scale.
DMs, comments, referrals, or face-to-face inquiries are not just interest.
They’re open doors to sales and cash flow. ~ Dr. Joybert Javnyuy
Here’s how to turn inquiries into income.
1. Respond Like a Professional, Not a Peer
Stop responding to inquiries like you are talking to your boyfriend or girlfriend.
Speed + clarity + professional tone builds trust.
Start doing this:
Acknowledge the inquiry
Thank them for reaching out
Clarify what they’re interested in
Never respond casually to a serious opportunity.
Your tone teaches people how to treat your business.
For someone reading this, if you change only this your business will change. Comment "I agree" if I am talking to you. Don't be shy.
2. Ask a Filter Question to Guide the Conversation
Don't drop your price. Don’t pitch yet.
Start with:
- “Can I ask, what outcome are you hoping to get help with?”
- “Have you tried anything in the past for this?”
People don’t buy offers. They buy solutions to pain. ~ Dr. Joybert Javnyuy

3. Lead With Confidence, Not Convincing
Your energy should say:
“I solve this daily. You’re in good hands.”
If your reply sounds like begging for approval or apologizing for your price, you’ve already lost.
You are not trying to be chosen.
You are showing them why you’re the right choice.
You are demonstrating why the best decision they made was to reach out to you.
4. Shift From Conversation to Conversion
Once you understand their pain and desires;
- Offer one of your solutions.
- Be direct and simple.
Example:
“I actually help people with that through [product or service]. Would you like the details?” or
"In the last 3 months, I have helped 6 people with almost the same kind of problem using this solution. Let me share with you the details."
No jargons. No pressure. Just clarity of solutions and impact.
5. Always Anchor the Value Before Mentioning Price
Don’t drop your price out of context.
Say this:
“For what you’ve shared, here’s what I’d recommend… [Insert outcome or transformation focused description]. That’s available for [$]. It comes with…”
Make them see what they gain, before they feel what they pay. ~ Dr. Joybert Javnyuy
This always changes the game.
6. Create Easy Decision Paths
Confused people don’t buy.
Make the next step obvious:
- “To move forward, here’s the link.”
- “We can get started as soon as payment is confirmed.”
- “Would you like me to send payment details?”
Remove friction. Remove difficulties. Make action feel easy.
7. Use Urgency Without Desperation
People delay unless there's a reason not to.
Use:
- Limited spots
- Upcoming start date
- Fast-action bonuses
But don’t lie. Real urgency builds trust. Fake urgency destroys it.
8. Use Testimonials & Results Strategically
When they’re close to buying but unsure, send this:
“Here’s a quick win from someone I recently helped with the same issue…”
Nothing sells like social proof in the middle of momentum.
9. Know When to Follow Up and When to Let Go
If they ghost after a proposal:
- Follow up once with value (“Just checking in. Let me know if you have any questions.”)
- Then move on.
Chasing isn’t selling. You attract better clients when you respect your time.
