If you wish to increase sales, focus on the problem!  Clarify the need.  Spend at least 50% of your time explaining and describing the problem.  Then, make the problem WORSE.  Yes, you read that right.  Project the problem into the future and explain what will happen if they DON'T solve the problem today.  Then and only then, present your solution.  Taking this approach will increase the value your prospect attributes to your product or service.  It will also make them feel understood.  They need to know that you understand their situation.  It makes you a credible resource to help them improve it.
