#1149 - Stop talking about *this*

Ever opened a pitch with how great your company is, then wondered why the buyer went quiet? 𝗜𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻: why buyers think about their problem long before they think about you, how the order of your words changes what buyers hear, and where your credentials actually belong in a sales conversation. Most sellers start with themselves. The company, the awards, the number of clients. It feels relevant. But to the buyer it sounds like noise, because they haven't yet decided if you can fix the thing that's keeping them up at night. James explains why order matters so much in sales. Same words, different order, different meaning. Start with the buyer's problem, show how you'd solve it, and then bring in your proof. Your credentials land harder when they back up a solution the buyer already wants.
