Any edge that can be gained in the fierce competition for consumer’s dollars is highly valuable – especially if the advantage is consumer intelligence. A crucial step in growing sales is having a good understanding of the target market. I recently came across a post on HubSpot – 10 Consumer Behavior Secrets to Grow Your Sales that provide insight into buying behavior. The 10 secrets are as follows:

  1. People buy for emotional reasons, then rationalize the purchase with logic.
  2. The way into a consumer’s mind is through the right brain.
  3. People lie to researchers.
  4. As much as 95% of a consumer’s thinking occurs in his or her subconscious mind.
  5. Consumers don’t think in words.
  6. The better your employees can articulate your company’s position, the better your customers can, too.
  7. You must know what your customers are really buying before you can sell it.
  8. If you want to increase sales tomorrow, you’ll need to create a dialogue today.
  9. Most consumers would be willing to pay a 20-25% price premium for their favorite brand before they’d switch to a competitor.
  10. The longer a consumer engages with your brand, the more likely they’ll be to buy your product or service.

If you step into the shoes of a consumer, it is easier to figure out what may need to change in your sales approach.  Additionally, secret #8 speaks directly to the need to start a dialogue with customers / prospects. Before diving into marketing creative and campaign planning, consider doing a deeper dive into your current customer or prospect list. How well do you know your customers?

By knowing what your ideal customer looks like, it is easier to create a prospecting list based on those same characteristics, or to supplement your in-house list with the types of details that will eliminate unfavorable contacts.

That’s where ListSource can step in.  With access to over 134 million properties covering 94% of the U.S. population you can precisely target the homeowners you want to reach.
