What does it actually take to sell someone on a concept, or an idea?
When you're trying to make an impact — to motivate, influence, or sell — what does it take to be able to remove all risk and uncertainty and make a prospect say yes?
This week on the podcast, Mark gets personal. Using a story about his 15-year-old son's plea for privacy, Mark explores some sure-fire strategies for creating the "perfect" pitch, one that removes all of a prospect's doubts and uncertainties so they have no choice but to move forward with you.
Here are some of the topics Mark covers in this episode:
The importance of structuring requests
Why you should be clear about what is being asked and provide a rationale for why it's needed
How to explain the benefits and the necessity of the request to the decision-maker

The importance of organizing your thoughts in a structured format
Why you need to tailor your pitch to the audience's concerns and interests
