    One of the greatest hurdles in educating potential customers about new technology is overcoming complex terminology that can alienate or overwhelm them. The key lies in speaking their language and centering on their needs rather than technical specs. When simplifying, imagine guiding them through a transformative story rather than listing features. Anchor your message in relatable outcomes and values, highlight how the technology will elevate their daily work, streamline processes, or solve a specific pain point. A clear, benefits-focused approach doesn't just inform; it inspires and makes technology feel accessible and relevant.
