Buying Criteria #3: What caused them to finally make a switch
Goal: To learn the trigger that transformed the issue from a yeah-we’ll-deal-with-it-someday problem into a bleeding-neck priority.
Why this is important: Communicating this breaking point in your marketing declares that you get them and that you know how to solve their problem. It gets your future buyers leaning in and saying, “Hey, how did you know that?”
Continuing with the previous example, you learn that what caused your current family law firm clients to switch was their account manager at the old agency, who seemed emotionally disconnected and uninterested in helping. The straw that broke the camel’s back? When they went three months without a new case from their SEO, they were met with consistent indifference from their account manager. They realized the situation wasn’t going to change, and they needed to start shopping around for a better agency ASAP.
