Prospecting and The Law Of Reciprocity

Posted January 25, 2022

There’s a simple modification you can make to your prospecting messaging and;

It will set you apart from your competitors.

Ready?

Leverage The Law Of Reciprocity!

The Law Of Reciprocity is a basic law of social psychology where we tend to pay back what we’ve been given.

We see it every day in simple form when someone holds the door for us, we open the next one for them.

The lady at my local bakery is a genius with this. When she sees you studying the display case, she’ll give you a free sample.

But we’re not just talking about fattening foods and holding doors here;

We’re talking about a powerful prospecting tactic too.

In what ways can we give something to our prospects WITHOUT giving away the store?

Is there a resource you can pass along like a link to a helpful website, an app, an article, a podcast, a white paper, etc?

Can you facilitate an introduction?

Can you send business their way?

Can you shoot a quick video answering a question they had in greater detail?

Two things I want you to be careful of when it comes to reciprocity.

First, don’t do things for others from a place of expecting them to reciprocate.

Second, be careful not to give so much that you condition freeloaders.

I have several more examples of how you can use The Law Of Reciprocity in your prospecting efforts and I’ll be sharing them during next week’s webinar.

Here’s what you’ll gain access to;

  • How to use emotional triggers in your messaging to expedite an appointment.
