Key Quotes

“About 90% of people will not purchase from you the very first time you invite them to buy. Trust has to be formed to make people feel comfortable purchasing from you. That’s why it takes at least five interactions before a lead converts. ”  – Liz Boer

“We need to be prepared to get it wrong and make adjustments. No one expects everything to go right the very first time. So don’t give up if you’re not getting the results that you want.” – Liz Boer
