Deep dives
Providing value and overcoming indecisiveness
Alex Hermosi, a world-renowned expert in helping fitness professionals scale their business, discusses the importance of providing value to potential clients and overcoming their indecisiveness. He emphasizes that most people are indecisive and need help in making choices, especially when it comes to investing in their health and fitness. By using persuasive skills and strategies, fitness professionals can help people change their lives and sell their services effectively. Hermosi also highlights the role of empathy and understanding in successful communication with clients.
Understanding the value equation
Hermosi explains the concept of the value equation, which consists of four variables: dream outcome, perceived likelihood of achievement, time delay, and effort and sacrifice. He emphasizes that fitness professionals need to understand and address these variables when promoting their services. By clearly defining the dream outcome and increasing the perceived likelihood of achievement, fitness professionals can demonstrate the value of their program. Additionally, minimizing time delay and effort/sacrifice required can further enhance the perceived value and make the program more appealing to potential clients.
Overcoming objections and closing the sale
The podcast highlights the importance of addressing common objections that arise during the sales process. Hermosi provides strategies for overcoming objections related to price, decision-making, and involving a spouse in the decision. To address concerns about price, he emphasizes the importance of understanding the value proposition and painting a clear picture of the benefits clients will receive. When it comes to decision-making and involving a spouse, Hermosi suggests providing logical arguments and appealing to past agreements or experiences to overcome reluctance. He also emphasizes the significance of tonality and delivery in effectively conveying the message and closing the sale.
The power of accountability and the role of empathy
The podcast explores the power of accountability in achieving fitness goals. Hermosi compares it to the example of brushing teeth and how external accountability transitions to internal motivation over time. He highlights the importance of creating an accountability system that includes social accountability, alumni support, and expert guidance. Hermosi also discusses the role of empathy and genuine concern in building a strong coaching relationship. By genuinely caring about clients' results and offering personalized support, fitness professionals can increase the likelihood of success and build trust with their clients.
Importance of Conviction and Tonality in Sales
Having conviction and the right tonality during sales interactions is crucial for success. It is important to enter sales calls with full conviction, which can be achieved by reading testimonials or examples of the impact you have made in people's lives. If you lack conviction, it can affect your tonality and negatively impact the sales process. Conviction is what separates successful professionals from beginners, as people who truly believe in what they are selling can close deals effectively.
Reinforcing the Decision and Shaping Identity
After the sale is made, it is important to reinforce the decision of the customer and shape their identity. This can be done through personal touches, such as sending personalized videos or handwritten cards. The goal is to make the customer feel excited and committed to their decision. By shifting their identity, from an overweight person to someone prioritizing their health, you can help them establish new healthy habits effortlessly. Identity shift is more powerful than willpower, making it easier for individuals to achieve their health goals.
