Just

OK, that’s all done, so now it’s time to just pop next door for a quick clean with our lovely hygienist Mary

The word “just” creeps into our vocabulary for the wrong reasons.

We think that by adding “just” to a sentence we make things seem simpler, easier and, therefore, more likely to be accepted without question.

If you can just take a few minutes to read through this treatment plan, we can answer any questions and get your go ahead

In fact, what is happening in the mind of the patient is that you are diluting the value of what you are doing for them.

If it’s only a quick clean, why are you charging me £55.00?

If this treatment is going to cost me £4,000, why do you think I’m only going to spend a few minutes thinking about it?

If you could just make a start on this exercise programme, you would see the benefits in the next three months If you just follow my simple 10-step marketing programme, like many others, your business will explode

“Just” sounds like you are trying to make something difficult sound easy – why?

“Just” implies that my resistance is sign of non-conformity – I’m not normal if I don’t agree – why?

“Just” cheapens your offer.

“Just” makes me smell a rat – you are just saying that to get me to agree.

Get rid of “just”.

Stop trying to make it easy – you sound like everyone else.
