Adopt the insider language of your vertical buyer

Two ingredients that make the difference
How do you adopt the insider language of your vertical buyer?
Not surprisingly, you do so by:
Spending lots of time with them
Helping them solve their problems
Meeting with them regularly
Joining their associations and social media groups
Reading their industry publications
But two more ingredients are essential:
Truly caring about them
Devoting nearly all of our discretionary time and money to building relationships and selling into that vertical
Here's the thing:
It's easy to simply use their insider words in your communication (website, collateral, marketing, sales).
But they'll know you're an imposter unless you're committed to their success.
Questions to ponder:
👉 How are we using the insider language of our target buyer to signal we're an insider?
👉 Do we genuinely understand our target buyer?
Have a great weekend!
