Trust = Credibility + Reliability + Intimacy + Self-Orientation


             What we say, our skills, and credentials.
Trust = Credibility + Reliability + Intimacy + Self-Orientation


            The actions we take and our predictability
Trust = Credibility + Reliability + Intimacy + Self-Orientation


    How comfortable people are conïŹding in us and our empathy
Trust = Credibility + Reliability + Intimacy + Self-Orientation

Give value, without expectation.

know-how and skills. Sell the sizzle, not the steak.
Step #3
   Build a social
 community and get
your target market to
     participate.
Step #4 - Run a
free workshop or
webinar to educate
your market.
