19 Barriers to Change Barrier 1: We feel anxious Barrier 2: We feel alone/isolated Barrier 3: The feeling that we have to give something up Barrier 4: We can only take so much change at one time Barrier 5: When the pressure to change is off, we revert back

21 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling Serving Why Trust Me/Us? DEFINE THE GAP CREATE CONNECTION Why Change? GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP Why Change Now? Why Our Solution? HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP

22 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling Your Story DEFINE THE GAP Increase oxytocin Establish personal trust Connect on shared beliefs Create safe environment for their story Demonstrate empathy Establish first anchor prevalence of hearing loss CREATE CONNECTION Their Story GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP

23 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling DEFINE THE GAP Establish credibility by clinically educating around the problem CREATE CONNECTION GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP Establish professional trust (credibility) Gain buy-in on the process Set 2nd anchor (normal hearing, credible testing results etc ) Create slight anxiety around anticipation of results

24 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling DEFINE THE GAP CREATE CONNECTION GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP Making the problem real/ concrete using their own results and feelings HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP Create contrast with their results relative to first 2 anchors Establish additional risk of loss measures (physical/ emotional) Activate choice supportive bias by allowing them to score emotional impact

25 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling Further solidify choice supportive bias allowing them to own the choice to take action Use the before/after contrast testimonial story to cement risk of doing nothing or choosing the cheap route Create the dopamine release by giving them a solution to the problem DEFINE THE GAP CREATE CONNECTION GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP HANDLE OBJECTIONS Creating ownership choice around solving the problem, then solving it! BRIDGE THE GAP

26 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling Allow them to feel in control of their remaining concerns Show them they are not alone (bandwagon effect) Give them the necessary information to allow neocortex to justify the decision to say yes Reduce remaining cortisol/stress around potentially making a bad decision Addressing anxiety and fearconnection of change CREATE using empathy and credibility DEFINE THE GAP GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP

27 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling DEFINE THE GAP Finalizing the choice supportive bias Activating the confirmation bias Finalizing the feeling of trust in the partnership which should drive oxytocin and reduce cortisol CREATE CONNECTION GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP Creating mutual skin in the game and driving a decision to take action

28 Braintrust Process - NeuroSelling Why Trust Me/Us? DEFINE THE GAP CREATE CONNECTION Why Change? GAIN COMMITMENT QUANTIFY THE GAP Why Change Now? Why Our Solution? HANDLE OBJECTIONS BRIDGE THE GAP
