The DARK Psychology That Makes Buyers Close Themselves

The podcast introduces a "dark psychology" sales technique focused on framing offers to make potential buyers feel foolish for declining. This involves understanding the gap between a buyer's current struggles and their desired future, crafting offers that bridge this gap, and ensuring the transformation is significant enough to warrant investment. The strategy includes mitigating activation risk (the effort required to see results) and reputational risk (the buyer appearing incompetent). Increasing a buyer's "activation energy," or eagerness to buy, is crucial, achieved through a series of incremental offers. An example is provided of a student who doubled his revenue in 90 days by implementing these techniques in his engineering company, booking meetings by offering to reduce the cost of goods and services and then offering fabrication with payment after the widgets are sold.
