Why is knowing your prospects needs and desires so important? Because you have to meet people where they are at mentally, physically and emotionally. By honing in on need states, you can match LIMU products and specific perks of the business to fill the gaps for individuals. This guide will help focus your prospecting efforts and shape your approach.
Once you’re familiar with these core need states, you should be able to tailor your strategy to fit most potential prospects you come across. The better you become at identifying and understanding each of the different personalities and LIMU, the more successful you will be at really speaking to each type of person. And not just speaking to, but solving a real problem and offering a real solution.
Ask yourself, “Who do I know that fits into these personas?” Going through your circle of influence will help you to identify who falls into which category. Whether it’s your best friend, gym partner, neighbor, babysitter, etc. You are likely to find many who match the core need states.
Following the 4 Bases Method is critical. That includes using the LIMU Share App to send Video 1: ‘And Then…’, followed by Video 2: ‘This is LIMU’, but sometimes a prospect will want more. These tools will help you provide additional information, while staying on message and remaining the messenger.
