Dating analogy explains sales psychology from @shelby.sapp

The speaker uses a dating analogy to explain a key sales principle. She contrasts a man who indecisively asks his date what she wants to do with a man who presents a clear, decisive plan, arguing the latter is more attractive. She then applies this to sales, stating that customers are more likely to buy when presented with a clear, simple plan (A to B to C) because it removes decision fatigue and information overload, making it an easy 'yes'.

Transcript excerpt

A guy, if they ask you out on a date and they're like, hey. So, like, what do you wanna do? You're, like, put into your masculine energy and you're like, I'm not even gonna go on this date. He asked me where I wanna eat. Like, that's too much. I'm just gonna no swim. Versus if a guy texts you, hey. I'm picking you up at this time. We're gonna go here. We're gonna do this after wear this. You get that text, and you're like, okay. It's the same thing in sales. A lot of the times when people don't buy from you, it's because you're not being the masculine energy of saying this is the plan. They just don't really know what the plan is. Or it's too much to think about to where they just no, okay. Yeah. For sure. Like, just send it over and, like, I'll think about it. There's not a clear a equals b equals c. It's like there's a couple things around here rank they're just like information overload, like send it over. But if you say, hey. This is your problem. This is the solution. So good. This is the game plan. A lot of the tier, they'll just go, okay. Sounds good. People love to be told what to do. They love for you to take the lead and make it an easy yes.
