INSIGHT

Sell The Future, Not The Product

  • People buy futures, not products; the product is a vehicle to a desired future.
  • Connect product features to aspirations to reduce objections and boost desire.
ADVICE

Don't Argue — Paint The Future

  • Avoid arguing facts at prospects; argument creates resistance and kills purchases.
  • Engage the emotional brain by showing the prospect the future they already want.
ADVICE

Ditch Facts-Only Pitches

  • Stop stacking facts, listing features, or dumping stats as your main pitch.
  • Lead with a vivid, desired future instead of inert product details.
