To reach the 97% who aren’t ready to buy now (but could be very soon), you have to educate them. When a prospect isn’t informed or knowledgeable on a subject, they’re in a state of uncertainty and people don’t buy in this state. But the more they know, the more likely they are to buy. The bonus here is, if you are the one educating them, you’re also making sure that when they hit the ‘buy now’ stage, they’ll be likely to buy from you. To do this, your message must be powerful, insightful, and education-based, and not simply a promotional piece about your company.
