Shownotes Transcript

**ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS**

  • Instead of focusing on quantifying pain, ask deeper questions about the problem’s origins and previous solutions, this will naturally reveal the impact

  • Find out if the problem is known and cared about across the company or just by one person

  • Ask easy, non-pushy questions like “Why is that a problem?” to get the prospect to share the impact without feeling pressured

  • Position involving decision-makers as beneficial for them, making it easier to get in front of power
