Make an Impact When Selling

It is not true that everyone decides about buying based on pricing.

I recently read about research conducted by Google. It provides a more subtle exploration of people's thinking.

Google's Head of Research Justin De Graaf lists these attitudes for online searchers:

-Help me

-Reassure me

-Educate me

-Surprise me

-Impress me

-Thrill me

Inspect the last three modes. These people are not looking for the cheapest or the most cost-effective solution. They are searching for an encounter that is not commonplace. They want a product, service or presentation that shakes them up.

They're looking for impact.

Is impact something you can deliver? Numbers don't answer this question. You would recognize positive impact by the comments you get from buyers. You'd know it from the emotional pitch of the gratitude people express. Pay attention to their testimony of the excitement, satisfaction or pleasure triggered by what you sell.

Embracing the Face-to-Face Network

It’s easy to get caught up in the endless cycle of emails, messages, and video calls. But sometimes, the best way to build relationships and grow your business is to step away from the screen and embrace the face-to-face network. The Power of In-Person Connections While virtual networking has its place, there’s something special about connecting with people in person. The energy, the body language, the shared experience – these all contribute to a more meaningful and lasting connection. Finding Your Tribe Your local Chamber of Commerce, professional groups, or even groups that are not directly related to your industry can be great places to start.
