The 5 Stages Where Buyers Are Silently Deciding
Match Your Message to Their Moment
Your Weekly Weapon…

Most people follow up with one message.
One time.
At one stage.
Or to the wrong stage, wrong time.
Selfishly.
That’s why most follow-up falls flat.
This week’s weapon busts that painful idea.
This brain based map shows you the 5 Hot Zones.
The 5 your buyers move through and what they actually need to hear, see, or experience in each one.
Consideration – What triggered their attention?
Trial – What gets them to test the waters?
Purchase – What shifts them from interest to commitment?
Consumption – What keeps them engaged after the sale?
Repurchase – What gets them coming back?

Pin it.
Keep it close.
