Your customers aren't unmotivated—they're scared. Consumer psychology expert Matt Sucha explains why addressing fear outperforms aggressive selling every time.
One bank's free insurance offer flopped until they tackled customer skepticism head-on. The result? A 167% conversion increase without changing the product.
The secret lies in subconscious decision-making. When a water heater salesperson started presenting two options instead of one "perfect" choice, his conversion rate nearly doubled. Why? Choice reduces anxiety and creates empowerment.
Sucha's breakthrough: communication changes three things—what people feel, think, and do. If you can't define all three outcomes before your pitch, you're guessing.
