Marianna has spent 15-plus years studying what makes people trust, believe, and buy. She breaks down the exact framework she uses to help her clients get pre-sold before a single sales conversation ever happens.In This EpisodeFind out the four trust triggers your ideal client needs to feel the moment they meet you, and why getting all four right can get someone almost to the sale before they have engaged with a single piece of content.Learn why building trust over six to twelve months of consistent content is one of the biggest lies in online marketing, and what to do instead.Discover the one market research question to ask every new client the moment they sign that reveals exactly which parts of your marketing are doing the heavy lifting.Understand why leading with authority and credentials is trust trigger number three, not number one, and what your audience needs to feel first.Walk away knowing the difference between being liked and being positioned as an expert — and why getting friend-zoned by your audience is quietly costing you sales.About Marianna HenningerMarianna Henninger is the founder of Brand Magnetic and an Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker who spent 15-plus years telling stories for brands like Microsoft, Hulu, the New York Times, and NBC at 30 Rock.
