Prospects are sceptical. Why shouldn’t they be?
Everyone is trying to sell them something, manipulate them, influence them, and push an agenda everywhere they go. So how do we break through the scepticism?
We can shock them into consciousness by saying, “Don’t take my word for it.”

“Don’t take my work for it. Here is what ______ said about it.”
People will give more credence to our...

“You need to spend some time on personal development.”
I didn’t like the tone of my manager’s voice. And I felt insulted. Was he insinuating I wasn’t good enough? That I was a bad person? Well, that is how I perceived it.

When our prospects tell us their problems, simply ask this:
"Do you want to do something about it?"
Our prospects have two possible answers.
"Yes." That's easy. Now we can give a quick presentation, and we know our prospects will join or purchase our product or service.
"No." Our prospects seldom say "No" directly, but instead, they will have excuses, issues, doubts, problems, hang-ups, and well, we don't have to deal with these prospects. Simply move on.
