Position yourself to win clients!!
Recently I visited a networking event.
Met some nice people and as usual there were more coaches in the room. I always welcome that fact. I like observing people and a little competition keeps one on their toes.
When one of the coaches approached me, this is how some of the conversation went:
Me: "Hi Darren, what do you do?"
Darren: "I’m a Business Coach."
We had a little chat which left me feeling slightly uninspired.
Couple of minutes later someone else came up to me and asks me the same question:
"What do you do, Jana?"
And my reply was: "I help clients double or triple their income while they de-stress and enjoy what they do.”
Which one of us walked out with a couple of new clients you think?
Both Darren and I are Business Coaches.
When Darren said "I am a Business Coach" he only told me his job title. He did not tell me how he could improve my life.
On the other hand I know that if I want to sell my services or products successfully, I have to sell how I can IMPROVE someone's life and what OUTCOMES they can expect.
You can do what I did and next time you meet a prospect, don't tell them what you do, tell them how you can improve their life!!
