Winning new customers is a lot like dating. If you ask someone to marry you on the first date, there's a good chance there won't be a second one.  Many businesses miss the chance to win a new customer because they ask too soon ("will you marry me?") or they ask in some vague, hinting, or unclear way ("I like getting coffee with people, don't you?"). On this episode of Wayfind Marketing Live, we'll teach you how to avoid these mistakes and share effective ways to ask your prospects and customers to commit without coming off vague or too strong.

Marketing to your customers is like taking them traveling. It requires a lot of trust, which is at the heart of every decision your customer will make. If they don't trust you, they won't do business with you. So if you're not building trust in your conversations, on your website, and through all your marketing activities, you are probably losing business. In this episode of Wayfind Marketing Live, we discuss how to weave messages of trust into every aspect of your marketing.

What kind of first impression does your website or sales pitch make on potential customers? Does it wow them and keep them dialed in or is their brain telling them it's time to think about something else?

In this episode of Wayfind Marketing Live, we talk through the process your customer's brain goes through to decide if your business is relevant (so you win more deals) or irrelevant (lost opportunities) for their needs.
