Summary
Business sustainability matters. And for this reason our marketing matters too. Having low prices or discounts aren't enough when it comes to attracting the right clients. Long-term success is our goal and for this to be viable we have to work on improving our marketing message. Our message has to be dialed into the hearts and minds of your prospects. They come to you with a problem and you have to convince them that your solution is what they have to take action on.
This is where persuasion comes in. This may be off putting to some but what it's really about is communicating the value of your products or services without hard selling. People don’t like it when they are being sold to. They don’t buy products, they buy results and that is your solution to their problem.
You also need to develop rapport-building strategies to create influence for them to take action. And speaking of influence you need to take these three into consideration. First, you should decide which audience to attract because you must be drawing in the right clients for long term success. Don’t just think of lowering prices, that will only serve you short-term. Secondly, you need to connect with them to understand their concerns, their reasons for buying, and for not buying. Third, you need to clearly identify their pain and what it’s costing them. That’s when they take action on your solution!
Your marketing message is seen in your rapport with prospects and that shouldn’t start right when you have consultations with them, that message must be conveyed everywhere - on your website, on your blog, and on your social media. That way, you pull in clients that are right for you.
“When you have your marketing message dialed in, you can really connect with the heart and mind of your clients or your prospects.”

Key Takeaways:
“Decide what type of people you want to attract and who you want to work with, it is important for your sustainability.” - April Meese
“Think about the type of clients that you want to have in your business and get really clear on how you talk to them about their concerns and their issues and remember their intentions.” - April Meese
“Figure out what their pain is. And you have to really talk about that until you get them clear on the pain and what it's really costing them to continue with this struggle, they are going to go back to the coping mechanism.” - April Meese
“Our beliefs are what actually determine our results. It's our beliefs that lead to our actions and our actions lead to our results.” - April Meese
“A lot of times people have objections, is this the right service for me? Is this the right person to get the service from? Sometimes it's not even about you. Sometimes it's about them, getting over their own fear of judgment by their friends. All of that, how you talk to them and overcome those objections are in your marketing message.” - April Meese
“Before you're able to build rapport over the phone or build rapport in a consultation. you have to start building the rapport everywhere your marketing message is.” - April Meese
