Explaining vs Persuading: One of the Biggest Mistakes Most People Make

It’s the FINAL episode in our 5-part series of the most powerful communication elements. We’ve covered ads, content, sales, launches, and so on… and today I’m pulling them all together so you can start shifting your messaging for more engagement (and ultimately drive more sales).

If you have a messaging problem at all – this episode is for you! Listen in and discover the difference between an action and a problem, what percent of your messaging changes once you’ve established what works, the top 5 signs your messaging off, and examples and stories along the way for deeper understanding. I’ll even cover the secret to “diagnosing” your audience. My students love this and it works really well in our 7-figure launches.

In the past 12 months, we’ve had more students coming in because their launches are declining in sales or have plateaued (where they once were super successful). It’s across-the-board funnel-wise! Evergreen funnels, high-ticket, low-ticket, etc. The reason? I’m breaking it all down in this episode – and how you can avoid declining sales and launch with success. The solution may even surprise you.

Tune into Part 3 of this series and discover what’s going on in the market, and how it affects your next launch, 5 common mistakes you’ll see in the webinar/workshop that lead to fewer sales, funnel hacks you might not expect, and messaging elements inside of launches (for all types of funnels). Don’t miss this messaging opportunity to avoid common mistakes, connect with your audience on a deeper level, and secure the sale before you pitch.

Having a unique (breakthrough) product does NOT equal sales. And yet, I hear it all the time from marketing gurus, “You have to be unique in order to stand out.” While your uniqueness might help you gain attention, attention doesn’t necessarily mean sales. I’ve had many students come to me with thousands of followers and zero sales and this might be something you've experienced as well.

Instead of focusing on your product and being “unique”, try the communication techniques I’m sharing in this episode of the podcast. Listen in and learn why you may have a unique product that isn’t selling well, how to stop the scroll and get sales, what’s necessary to understand about your audience for higher conversions, and the three communication tools I use to create engaging messaging. I don’t just list the tools in this episode, I give detailed stories and examples so you can implement these steps in your own business ASAP. Start your journey of creating your own unique communication with these tools today!

Your messaging can speak to ALL of your audience. How? Using proven and reliable psychological elements in your business. In fact, when our highest level coach and owner of MAXIMized Business, Andrea Maxim, learned what she’s sharing with you on the podcast, she realized she was leaving out a huge percentage of her audience and the results of using them dramatically increased sales.

In this episode, Andrea is going to walk you through four psychological elements you can use in your messaging today. Listen in and discover how to be more intentional mindful with your copy and messaging, simple ways to improve your communication in life and business, Andrea’s personal journey using these elements, and why some frameworks don’t work and how to shift. Reconstructing your messaging, your copy, and the information you share can make a massive difference in open rates, click-through rates, cost per lead, sales, conversions, etc., and if “reconstructing” sounds intimidating… it doesn’t have to be!
