I was doing Electrical and lighting business.The sales were good, because our marketing was efficient, and we had a good Brand. But as you must have heard the Story of Emperor,s new clothes, my situation was similar. I felt everything looked rosy from outside, but it was not so.

We should converse as if speaking to a friend, and keep in mind the persona (customer avatar) you have in mind. So even if there are many people on the other side, most of them feel connected as they will feel you are speaking to them, and
