Just BECAUSE.....

imagesOne of the most powerful words in sales and marketing is “because”….and it doesn’t get used enough.

…with BECAUSE we can link ideas of logic and emotion.  The linking of logic and emotion makes ideas far more powerful and memorable because we can feel and analyse simultaneously.

More importantly though it is the word that links our knowledge to the clients needs.

For Example: Which of these  is more powerful?

1.  “you need to save $1,000 per month for the next 10 years to generate the lump sum of $150,000 you want”

2.  “you need to save $1,000 per month for the next 10 years because that gets you the $150,000 you want”

BECAUSE is a key link that can make our professional advice relevant to the client.

It is the word that will most often move clients to act on the advice given.

…Because they will only act when the professional advisers analytical logic is linked to the clients emotional triggers and motivators.

Adviser should use it more often, because it gets more clients to act on good advice.
