SECRET #1: THE REAL DEFINITION OF “SUCCESSFUL MARKETING.”
*************************************************************

There are three factors that influence the profitability of any marketing effort. The smartest marketing minds on the planet have sifted these factors down to this simple, but powerful formula:

The Right Message… To The Right Market… At The Right Time!

Most businesses miss one, two or all three of these factors, and end up with very ineffective marketing and advertising results. Also, most businesses compound these problems by spending a bunch of money on image advertising, with no direct response offers at all. This could cost companies millions in missed sales every year.

To make the most of your marketing dollars:

1. Never waste money on image advertising, or at least keep it to a minimum.

2. Test simple, inexpensive direct response marketing methods. Offer FREE
reports, samples, coupons, or other response devices filled with emotionally
compelling copy to find the messages that match the interests of YOUR target
markets!

3. Concentrate on your most successful direct response offers, and…Use
Multi-Step Direct Mail/Phone/Fax/Email/Voice Broadcasting Follow-Up To
Maximize Sales!

It is CRITICAL that you follow up with your leads repeatedly, incorporating a variety of media such as mail, phone, fax, e-mail messages, and voice broadcasting!!!

If you don’t have a computerized system in place to methodically, repetitively and consistently follow up with your leads, you’re either wasting a lot of leads or you’re wasting a lot of man hours doing tedious, manual follow up.

This particular marketing strategy will reveal to you some concepts you can apply when publishing your newsletter. It’s really more of reminder to you that there are certain elements you need to be aware of when creating your newsletter and crafting your messages. These elements could potentially grow your list and provide great wealth for you and your business if done correctly.

This same marketing strategy also applies to the content and appearance of your blog. Take the time to understand what your readers want, build campaigns or produce content that speaks to those needs, give your blog or newsletter a professional appearance, solicit feedback from your readers, and interact with your customers to build lasting relationships. This is the exact blueprint for attraction marketing, and it is the only way to build yourself a thriving business.

If you try to cheat this concept by providing useless information, you will never be able to effectively grow your business. Believe me, your subscribers will know when you are trying to cheat them. And they will respond accordingly by going elsewhere for the assistance they need.

Therefore, it is paramount you give it your best when creating your content. That one lazy post could make the difference between you making a little money or you making a lot of money in your business. Enjoy the post!

Create a newsletter worthy of your company and you’ll drive your readers to future sales. Make it simple, make it short, and make it a powerful tool that reflects you and your business!

As a business owner, you already know that people buy for emotional reasons. No matter how great your product or service is, apathetic consumers will simply dismiss it. You need to tap into their emotions if you’re going to convince them that they need your product. By manipulating the pleasure and pain triggers in your prospect, you will be catching their attention, and encouraging them to act (either to rid themselves of the pain, or to retain feelings of pleasure.) Here are some tips for injecting pain and pleasure into your marketing messages: Tell stories- people immediately connect with stories. If your story relates to an experience your prospect has had, they will immediately be reminded of the feelings they are fighting to avoid, or the feelings they’d love to feel again. Make your prospect imagine- the mind is a powerful tool. Asking your prospect to visualize sets a stage for you to present painful / pleasurable situations. Tap into past experiences, or create hypothetical ones. When it comes to emotion, your prospect’s brain will not make a distinction between fact and fiction. Be confident in your product- when talking about your product or service, don’t say what it might or could do for them. Explain what it will do. (Remember, your prospect needs to get rid of their pain or acquire pleasure as soon as possible. They need a guaranteed solution!) Use the right words- make your message vibrant by using active verbs (example: Jane runs instead of Jane is running.) Also, use words associated with pleasure (babies, soft, relaxing etc.) or pain (dentist, suffering, trauma). One last point: once you draw out the pain or pleasure, let your audience revel in it. Don’t be too quick to move past the emotion. It’s the emotion that moves people to action. If you can successfully incorporate emotional stimulation in your marketing messages, you will be transporting your prospect to a buying state!
