If you're not getting as many sales as you would like, there are 3 psychological forces you can tap into right away to make your offer practically irresistible.
Any one of them alone has the power to drive sales but by combining all three, your prospects will become highly motivated to purchase whatever it is you're offering.
Here are the three sales forces and how to master them to increase your sales:
1. The Power of Emotion: Connecting on a Deeper Level
At the forefront of persuasive selling is the ability to tap into emotions.
Emotion is the spark that ignites interest and desire.
As neuroscientist Antonio Damasio famously stated, "We are not thinking machines that feel; rather, we are feeling machines that think."
In the context of sales, appealing to emotions can transform a casual interest into a compelling need.
To leverage emotion effectively, tell stories that evoke empathy, and build a narrative that your audience can see themselves in.
This emotional resonance creates a powerful connection, making your product or service not just wanted, but needed.
Side note: A study by the Advertising Research Foundation found that the emotion of "likeability" is the most predictive of whether an advertisement will increase a brand's sales.
However, emotion alone isn't enough for a large portion of your audience to buy.
So, what can you present them with to drive their interest in your product higher?
2. Logic: Providing the Justification
Once emotion has laid the groundwork, logic comes into play to rationalize the decision.
As Zig Ziglar used to say, "People buy on emotion and justify on logic."
This is where the features, benefits, and tangible outcomes of your offer are highlighted to help.
It's about showing that there's a solid foundation behind the emotional appeal.
The emotional angle should draw in your audience so the logical reasoning can cement their decision to buy.
Providing data, case studies, and clear benefits caters to this need for logical justification, making the choice to buy feel like a sensible conclusion.
However, even after taking them on an emotional journey and providing clear cut benefits and case studies, a large number of your prospects still won't buy.
That's when you have to bring out the 3rd psychological force…
3. Fear: Overcoming Inertia with Urgency and Scarcity
The primal force of fear, particularly the fear of missing out (FOMO), acts as a potent motivator.
Behavioral economists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman's Loss Aversion theory illustrates that the pain of losing is psychologically about twice as powerful as the pleasure of gaining.
Therefore, to give your customer that little push they need, you have to create a sense of urgency (for example, with a limited time offer) and scarcity (limited availability).
This will compel your prospects to act now rather than risk missing out.
By blending these three forces—emotion to attract, logic to justify, and fear to compel—you can create a powerful approach that motivates your prospects.
The key to your success in using these 3 forces lies in understanding these psychological drivers and weaving them into your sales content.
