To Turn More Prospects Into Paying Clients, You Must Motivate Them!

By: Fabienne Fredrickson

When talking about their business, most solo-preneurs make the mistake of describing exactly what they do, in boring detail. "My company has been in business for X number of years and we use the newest technology systems. We use a complicated series of... blah blah blah." Many coaches and consultants talk about coaching ad nauseam, "What is coaching, are you coachable, what is your coachability index, who is the coach, blah blah blah".

I know, because I did it too in the beginning and it didn't work.

Hate to say this, but... SO WHAT! Nobody cares! When I hear someone talk to their prospects this way, it sends up a big red flag for me: these people don't really KNOW what they DO for clients and they're losing potential clients every time they open their mouths and every time someone reads their materials! The problem is that they're clearly not connected enough to their client base to see what real benefits they bring their clients.

There's a saying that goes "People don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care." And until you can tell someone what's in it for THEM to work with you, they won't pay attention to you or what you're saying.

Now, there's nothing wrong with you if you've been doing this, but it's something that you'll want to work on quickly so you don't let any more ideal prospects slip through your fingers. It just takes asking yourself what you really DO for clients, what results and benefits you get for them and then to articulate that so that a prospective client looking for that solution will want to work with YOU.

Let's look at exactly what your ideal prospects are motivated by: The Motivators. Below is a list of the top 10 reasons, results or benefits that make people buy, according to Jim Edwards and David Garfinkel in the ebook entitled "Ebook Secrets Exposed" www.EbookSecretsExposed.com that I read a bazillion years ago:

Here, according to them, are the most powerful motivators:

Make mo-ney Save mo-ney

Save time

Avoid effort

Get more comfort

Achieve greater cleanliness

Attain fuller health

Escape physical pain

Gain praise

Be popular Now, not every one of these fits your business, and most likely, yours fall into the top 4 motivators, unless you're in healthcare or image, then it usually falls within the last 6. Either way, it's time for you to narrow yours down into motivators from the Top Ten list above.

What's so powerful about using "motivators" in your marketing is that you position yourself as their ultimate SOLUTION, the one they would do anything and pay relatively anything to get. When you can show prospects how you can help them achieve one of them, they'll immediately pay more attention to you.

They'll want more. You'll PULL them in. They'll call YOU, as opposed to you chasing THEM. It's such a beautiful thing to watch when that begins happening in your business.

Your Assignment:

Circle the motivators that fit your business from the list above and then list an example of how this has already happened using real client examples. Then, sprinkle this throughout all your marketing materials, your elevator speech, your website, your signature talk, etc. You'll have people coming out of the woodwork wanting to work with you and your income will increase dramatically, in a very short time.
