If you want to persuade...

If your recommendation does not do something to address the specific needs of your audience, it doesn’t matter how logical/time-saving/cost-saving it is, it will not resonate.

Who are you speaking to?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What’s their biggest challenge or highest goal?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How will your recommendation help them overcome that challenge or reach that goal?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Make it personal to make it work.
