The excerpt is from a single-speaker presentation in which the presenter (labeled SPEAKER A) discusses consultant-client dynamics — why leads go silent, the importance of building emotional connection and trust, establishing authority and credibility, creating chemistry with prospects, and understanding the motivations behind hiring a consultant.

The other reason why leads go silent is that we don't build an emotional connection and we don't establish trust. The trust is not built yet. As a consultant, you want to establish authority and credibility. You're the subject matter expert, and then you want to establish some chemistry as well between you and the lead. You have to invest in that relationship. You have to understand not just the technical problem and the solution, but also like what is motivating this person to hire a consultant?
