    Interactuar con clientes indecisos no se trata solo de persuadir, sino de entender sus dudas y guiarlos con información valiosa. En mi experiencia, cuando educamos primero y construimos confianza, la venta llega de manera natural. 🚀

    Try to place content that would be relatable to them. Some success story or developing project related to their field of business. Organize short seminars related to the subject they would be interested in and send an invite. Directly approach them via personalized message, offering your services or expertise.

    If I come across a hesitant client about what we do and the service we provide. I then start to share content of successful boardroom installs or AV equipment we use to do installations or network installations as well as happy client we provide a servics for on a weekly basis. Its important to see what content the client love and share and make sure you like and leave a comment. I found that the hesitant client tends to view and like the content I share
