Value Proposition
A value proposition tells prospects why they should do business with you, pointing out the benefits of choosing your services. Not all leads are the same when it comes to needing a photo booth at their event. Some consider it essential, while others see it as nice to have. Emphasize the value you offer to attract those willing to invest more.
In this video we will try to answer the question: What is the value you’re offering your potential customers that may sway them into choosing you for their events?
