How to think about an Irresistible Offer

And if you don't know what that means..

It's simply an offer so good that it compels your customer to say yes without you having to do much convincing and pitching and "selling"

It's really simple:

1. There's already so much talent and competition in the world right now and there are a great number of people who offer good work just as you do, so you can no longer rely on "but my product is good." Nah! Things have changed.

2. Now you have to think of how to present what you sell in such a way that the customer sees you as different from the rest and that you're in a category all by yourself.

Please I'm not talking about hyping and fluffing things up. I'm not talking about putting a good packaging around a crappy product or service (that's a silly way to do things because it will backfire)

3. Since there are a lot of good options to choose from, people now easily have tension about buying things. Competition created that problem.

4. Your offer is irresistible if it takes away that tension.. The moment your customers "feel" any tension around buying from you, then you don't have an Irresistible Offer. You're like the rest.

5. An irresistible offer will reduce the tension around buying to the barest minimum or will takes it away completely so that a customers literally feels like, "This is so good, I'll be stoopid if I don't buy this because I don't know if I can find this anywhere else."

This is how to think of an irresistible offer.

PS. The little princess below just couldn't resist the offer! 🤩

Choose to make your customers feel like this little princess and they won't see anyone else but you.

In sales,

Your customer has to be 100% certain about 3 BASIC things:

1. Your product, offer or whatever you're selling.

He must be certain it will work for them

Certain it will do what you said it will do.

Certain it's the right fit for their money.

Certain they won't waste money again because

Frankly, it's likely they bought your kind of product before.

It was all hype.

Now you're selling the same stuff

Or something similar.

So in their heads, they're thinking...

"I have bought this thing before and just like the rest, this salesperson is trying to make a commission off of me. He doesn't give 2 cents about me. He's only after his money. No matter what he says I won't buy it."

You must change that conversation going on in their heads

Else you won't win.

2. He must be certain about you.

Certain you're a trustworthy person.

That you are honest, helpful and that you can be relied upon should the deal go sour.

That you're not some con master, some enthusiastic, sharp-as-a-tack salesperson who only care about himself.

If they're not sure you're a good person, they might not buy.

3. He must be certain about the company you work for

Certain that the company's product is good

That their service delivery is excellent.

That the company will stand by and help out should things go south.

That your company has enough integrity to support them when they need it.

Basically that your company cares, because

They have dealt with companies who are rude to customers and don't care how they feel.

That thing hurts!

And the moment they don't trust your company or have the slightest inkling they'll be ghosted, they'll not buy.

P.S. If you increase their certainty around these 3 things then you stand a better chance of getting them to buy

Learnt something?

You're welcome!

When was the last time you spoke before an audience, whether you were making some kind of presentation, teaching a group, or doing something else?

What was your experience like?

😁😁😁😁

Comment below!

I'm visiting you for the first time..

I got to your house...and fiam!

You led me straight..

To your bedroom.

Haba!

Ahh!

Bros, calm down!

You're making me scared! 🤕😥

At least, let's stay in the sitting room first.

Today is the first day nau.

Be calming down.

Be nice.

Be civil.

Be a good person.

Give me a water first..

Something light.

Let's play a game..

Or we could see a movie..

When did we start this relationship? 😑

Let's not rush things.

Yeah!

I see you..

I see you nodding, Tiwa.

Dayo did it to you, abi?

He wan dey carry you dey go where you no know.🙈

But I trust you Tiwa..

You didn't enter his bedroom o.

You ke!

And even when you entered, you quickly ran out.

Ewwww!

So disgusting!

Same way you felt is how a prospect feels when..

They click on your ad

And straight, you lead them into your WhatsApp DM.

No lounge (parlour)

You didn't give them water.

No juice.

Haba!

Bedroom straight.

Wait first.

Give them something.

Something to make them want to come into your bedroom (your sales page)

It's called a lead magnet.

To do this properly, you need a Sales Funnel.

Did you know..

That when people come from your ad to your DM, the average conversion rate is 1%..

The meaning is simple.

If your ad takes 100 people directly to your DM, in that 100 people, you'll only be able to get 1 person to buy.

That's not too good!

But here's the stew part:

The average conversion rate on a sales page is 5%!

5 PERCENT!

That's a 4% difference - a whole lot if you ask me.

So you're leaving up to 5 times the amount of money that you're making on the table by not having a sales funnel.

Your ad should flow like this:

In your ad, promise to give them something that solves a problem for them when they click.

As they click..

They come to an OPTIN page..

They put in their details.

They collect their free gift.

Then you led them to your Sales page.

Your bedroom!

You will see more conversions.

You'll see more magic.

Stop thinking bad bad thing.

Go build a Sales Funnel.

PS. There's no PS.

But if you own a business and you sell things online, you can send me a message, I have an amazing gift for you.

It's FREE consultation!

We will talk and I'll see if I can work with your business.

Oya, Run!

Ernest.
