Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

It's simple - take a look at most of the threads created by people who you say are searching for success - and notice how they always start with a problem.


Forums, at their core, are where...

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

I know Jonathan, so have I learned a lot from that stuff. In fact, I spent 2 years in that market teaching people how to better their lives. I left after that because I saw it was a waste of time....

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

...Or it could be a 'good' thing considering we grow from pain and wither from comfort.

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

How's things Jeffrey?

Good points, and one's I agree with completely.

As for problems and solutions - I use the word solution to mean a benefit, not just solving the problem itself, but...

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

Judging by a lot of the answers above, and people trying to convince themselves that 'solutions' are the way to get attention ahead of 'problems' - a NEW question would be...

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

The point, which I somehow have to keep driving home: Is that the human brain pays more attention to problems than it does solutions - and if you lead with the problem instead of the benefits more...

DABK: The title of the thread is fine, and the post... doesn't need to be clarified.

Good for you Marcia.

Your prospects are more motivated to wake up to more sales. Wow. They must be so lucky someone out there understands them

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

I'll address the last few posts:

Political = Problems

Same difference mate.

Just so we're on the same page: I wasn't 'trying' to say anything - I said categorically that problems get more attention than solutions, because...

Re: Why talking about the 'benefits' may be hurting your sales

All dreams start with a nightmare.

Nobody is motivated by a dream unless the dream is a better alternative to their...
