Mitigating Risk

When considering buying from you, your clients experience a level of perceived risk.

  • Functional Risk: will the purchase do what it is supposed to do?
  • Monetary Risk: are they wasting or losing money?

  • Physical Risk: is this a dangerous purchase?
  • Psychological Risk: will they feel guilty or irresponsible making this purchase?
