Understand Your Buyer > How To Convert > Return on Investment
What is it?
ROI or Return On Investment is what your buyer “gets” as a result of buying your offering. It’s not always a financial return, but can often be expressed using money.
Why does it work?
It works because it helps make the buying decision. If I now the ROI is £xx I can make an informed decision about my purchase. If I’m not sure of the ROI or the seller expects me to know or calculate the ROI then, as a buyer, I will be more cautious.
How can you use it?
Depending on your offering there are at least 13 things your offering could do for your buyer that represent a return on investment:
- Attract clients/staff/visitors
- Retain clients / staff
- Save time
- Quicker result
- Longer lasting result
- Save money
- Exclusive access
- Make money
- Can do more (volume)
- Can do more (ability)
- Improve conversion
- Learn something
- Evoke a feeling
From there, you could even provide a calculator (or advise on HOW to calculate ROI to make it easier for your buyer to make a decision)
