How do you guide a client without pressure?
How do you inspire trust — and make them remember you?
Simple: tell stories.
Why stories work
Have you ever read Stephen King?
If not, you’ve at least heard of him.
If yes, you probably remember the feeling
long after the plot faded.
That’s how storytelling works —
we remember emotion first, logic later.
Emotion beats logic
Facts inform.
Stories transform.
Numbers, features, data — they fade.
Emotion lingers.
That’s why stories sell: they make the buyer feel before they think.
Using stories in sales
1. From your own experience
“Vladimir, I understand you want a discount.
Last week I had a similar case — we got a great deal for a client, but they never signed.
Later we learned price wasn’t the issue — it was the payment plan.
So tell me — if I get you these terms, will we sign?”
Stories shift the tone from argument to collaboration.
2. From client success
“One of our clients bought a unit for $74K at launch.
Six months later, we sold it for $134K.
Would you like the same result?”
Stories like this build aspiration and trust, not pressure.
3. From the market
“Last year there were five offers like this.
Today — only two.
The trend is obvious.”
Stories create time context — turning advice into foresight.
The golden rule
A story must make people feel something —
curiosity, excitement, fear, hope, envy.
Emotion opens the door; logic only walks through it.
The greatest rulers always kept storytellers close —
because they controlled how others saw the world.
