Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode
Why influence is necessary
Professional services are a high trust sale, and our prospects will always feel like they are taking on a lot of risk by buying our services. Social proof reduces their fear of loss, and shows them that we’re worthy of their risk, whether it’s in attention, time or money.
The key takeaway from “Influence”
Human beings respond to reciprocity, authority and social proof because it makes buying decisions easier. Our prospects are so short on time that they are looking for certain cues about how credible and trustworthy we are.
The inner dictator vs. the external leader
It’s easier to help our team improve and perform from within. Everyone has an inner critic that can hold them accountable more effectively than we ever could as leaders. If we leverage that in how we manage, any improvement is self-driven instead of feeling like it’s coming from us.
