💡 Dan Kennedy Truth: “People don’t buy prevention, they buy cure.”
This line hits hard, especially when you're trying to sell something transformational, helpful, or even life-changing... but nobody's biting.
Here’s why:
Most people should want to prevent problems (burnout, stress, poor health, bad habits)… But they don’t because prevention doesn’t hurt.
People act when the pain is:
  • Urgent
  • Real
  • Uncomfortable
Examples:
  • “My back hurts and I can’t sleep.”
  • “My ads are bleeding money.”
  • “I’m in debt and stressed out.”
That’s when they take action and decide to act.
🧠 Ask yourself:
Does your offer solve an urgent pain, or is it a nice-to-have?
If it’s the latter, you’ve got a positioning problem.
You can:
  • Reframe it as a cure
  • Or target the rare few who buy prevention (smaller, harder market)
💬 Let's Discuss:
  1. Your offer
  2. The pain it solves
  3. Is it urgent to your market?
I’ll give feedback if needed.
