Being Ghosted: How To Turn Silence into Momentum

Let’s talk about that all-too-familiar business gut punch: you send a killer proposal, wait for the “yes” and get nothing but radio silence. Ghosting. It’s frustrating, it’s awkward and it can leave you questioning your value.

But here’s the truth: you don’t need to slash your prices or chase after people who aren’t ready. You just need a smarter way to turn that silence into your next opportunity.

In this video, I share how to respond when you get ghosted without losing your cool or your confidence. Meet the GHOST framework:

G: Give the Magic Pill
H: Humanise the Follow Up
O: Offer a Quick Win
S: Set Decision Gates
T: Take Back Your Power

Here’s your challenge for this week: reach out to someone who’s gone quiet with a “Yes, No, or Not Now” message. Celebrate any response because clarity is always a win. And if this episode hits home, share it with someone who needs a boost. You’ve got the skills to turn silence into your next big success.
