Get inside your buyers mind - understanding RISK
|
Good morning Reader Let me be VERY VERY CLEAR about the reason why your buyer is not buying your product or service right now.
We ignore this at our peril. We have to think like our prospective buyer. They are thinking right now:
There are a myriad of thoughts going through your buyer's mind when you talk to them about what you do. The higher the price of the service, the more they have to think about it. At the end of it all is a simple series of thoughts:
If they think that it's BS, they will say "no" or" give me time to think about it". This is simply an excuse for "I’m not sure" which deep down means "I’m not ready to buy". Our simple goal is to get inside our buyer's mind. Become a fly on the wall in their mind. Get so close to them that we know what they are thinking. When we do that, selling becomes simple. We all worry about things that might or might not happen. It's all to do with risk. De-risk what you sell to your buyer. Make them feel comfortable about what you do and what you offer. Make them feel 100000000% sure about what you do and how you do it, that there is no risk to their decision. Do that and the orders will flow in…… Until next Saturday, stay focused on becoming a fly on the wall on the brain of your buyer. James How would you rate this edition? 🤏🏻 So-So |

In today’s edition, we explore why you HAVE to get clever about measuring the different stages of the sales journey that your prospects go on and where in the pipeline you have the sales problem.

The guys have been trained by me,...
