Episode Summary

This episode of the Live Better Sell Better Podcast features William Ballance, CEO at Lavender. The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI) divides people into four quadrants: Action, Vision, People, and Data. Each quadrant represents a different aspect of decision-making. You can structure your messaging to target all four quadrants or use personality assessments like DISC or OCEAN to determine an individual's decision-making pattern. Depending on an individual's personality, they may focus on different quadrants, which can lead to different decision-making patterns, and therefore a different messaging. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES Appeal your messaging to a prospect’s personality type - William: "If you're going after someone who's action-oriented, you want to drive them into that decision and remove any sort of friction in that decision. For someone who is more vision-oriented, they are the big-picture thinkers, they’re very high on openness. You want to inspire them in that decision-making. You can see this a lot with Nike commercials, Just do it. Like you look at those commercials and you're like, I can do anything."
