A lot of people, they can't think straight when they're buying because they have all this anxiety and fear. People don't buy when they're scared. And my dad knew this. When people are making a big purchase like a car, I saw him reassure nervous customers again and again. He didn't say, this car is perfect for you. He'd say something literally like this. He would say, hey, let's take it for an extended test drive for a few hours. Give me your copy of your license and go and take it home. Show it to your wife, show it to your family. If she hates it, just bring it back and we'll sort you out. That little safety net, it turned browsers into buyers. Why? Because of this idea of risk reversal. There is no risk. This is why risk reversal is so powerful in business. Money back guarantees, try before you buy, or trials, cancel any time type of terms. These aren't gimmicks. They calm the nervous system. They allow somebody to think clearly and that's when the real decision happens.
