The 3 Financing Tiers

Quick Win: The Immediate Implementation

The Patient Psychology

The #1 objection: "I need to think about it" (translation: "I can't afford this right now")

What patients don't say:

• "I don't have $3,000 in my checking account today"

• "I'm worried about my credit card limit"

• "This feels like too much to spend at once"

• "I want this, but the upfront cost scares me"

What financing solves: Transforms "$3,000 today" into "$120/month" which feels psychologically manageable and removes the immediate pain of the large payment.
