INSIGHT

Engagement Is About Processing, Not Teaching

  • Engagement is not about giving more information to build trust because awareness should already have done that work.
  • Engagement's job is to help people process what they already know and move toward action.
ADVICE

Make Problems Feel Doable

  • Help prospects talk the problem down to size so it feels doable and exciting.
  • Focus engagement on defining the challenge and a clear pathway rather than increasing complexity.
ADVICE

Host Peer Venting Sessions

  • Run peer-to-peer gatherings where attendees can vent, process, and support each other instead of hosting another teaching webinar.
  • Facilitate conversation lightly and let peers drive the discussion toward shared challenges.
