People are scared. Not of your product, but of the journey to implementing it.
They're terrified of making decisions because they're not convinced the results will match their expectations. They're haunted by potential unintended consequences and the bumpy road between their current state and desired outcome.
Your job? Make that journey feel smooth, predictable, and risk-free.
