ER visitors with a bleeding neck get all the attention immediately
People in big pain write big checks quickly
Stop selling prevention—it’s 16x more difficult to sell even if it’s 1/1000th as expensive
Sell the cure
The “should-be” world doesn’t pay, so focus on the “is world.”
They buy into my USP (Unique Selling Proposition)
