Identifying Prospects in the ‘Unknown’ Stage of the Buyer Journey: What to Look For 🔍 The unknown stage is the hardest to navigate… Prospects haven’t identified their need yet. They’re not aware of the problem you solve. They’re not searching for you. So, how do you find them? 🤔 Here’s the real question: “How can you uncover potential prospects in the unknown stage?” Here’s what to look for when identifying these prospects: ✅ Content Consumption Patterns – Look for individuals who engage with content that hints at a need. They may not know it yet, but they’re exploring topics around your solution. 💬 Social Media Engagement – Monitor social signals—likes, shares, comments on posts about your industry. Even if they haven’t explicitly shown interest, they’re curious. 📊 Behavioral Triggers – Identify patterns like downloads, website visits, or email opens. These actions suggest a growing interest, even if they haven’t committed to solving the problem. 🌍 Industry Trends – Keep an eye on shifts in industry trends or emerging challenges. Prospects in the unknown stage might be experiencing a pain they haven’t identified yet. 🔎 Early Research or Exploratory Searches – Look for people researching solutions in your space. They might not know the exact problem, but they’re considering options. 👥 Referrals and Word of Mouth – Sometimes, prospects in the unknown stage are introduced through word of mouth. A peer could mention your brand, sparking curiosity before a direct need forms. Prospects in the unknown stage aren’t lost causes. They’re just at the beginning of their journey. Identify them early, nurture their curiosity, and guide them toward a solution. ✨ How are you finding prospects in the unknown stage?
