The Path To Your Prospects Wallet Begins At His Heart
You want your prospect to make the decision to buy your product or service. So you show him what you have to offer in your sales letter, web page, ad or commercial. You lay out the facts, and he comes to a rational decision based on them. Right? Wrong. People buy things based on emotion. And if you're not connecting emotionally with them, they aren't going to buy from you. It's that simple. In fact, studies have shown that people with injuries to the area of the brain that controls emotions don't just suffer from an inability to feel them. They become paralyzed over even the smallest decisions, like what to have for breakfast. So how, then, do you go about blazing that path from your prospect's heart to her wallet? First of all, you tell her what's in it for her. What are the benefits she will reap from your product or service? Will it allow her to spend more time with her children, and so become a better mother? Will it make her more beautiful? What does she stand to lose if she doesn't buy from you right now? Next, take those benefits and paint a vivid picture of her enjoying them. Describe her laying in the grass looking at the clouds with her five year old. Show her co-workers becoming jealous of her beauty, and all the men who are clamoring for her attention. Describe how mundane life is without what you have to offer. Once you get her emotions stirring, desire is born. Keep fanning the flames with your message, and that desire will lead to action ? the purchase of your product or service!

When Designing Postcards, Aim for Refrigerator Door Mindshare If you want to design effective marketing postcards, then aim for "Refrigerator Door Mindshare." By this, I mean that you should create a card that someone would be proud to display on his or her refrigerator door.The image on the front of your postcard should be simple, but attractive. I?ve found that brightly colored cards pull a better response than dark, moody cards. Save your artistic angst for some other medium. You should also create an image that?s easily comprehended. Why? Because your recipients will only give your cards a one- or two-second glance before deciding to keep them or throw them away. Think billboard. A billboard must get its point across quickly?because people are driving by at high rates of speed. It also must be memorable. So, here's a homework assignment, the next time you're out and about, look at the billboards. Advertisers are paying good money to put them up, so why not use them as a source of free design ideas? Now, ask yourself a couple of questions:1. Which billboards are memorable? 2. Which billboards are forgettable? You can also do the same thing with advertising you see in bus and train stations, or in airports.You may have noticed this when you've been sending postcards, or doing some other form of marketing. Your responders will fall into one of the following groups: 1. People who respond right away. 2. People who respond several weeks, months, or even years later. You may get a lot of "right away" responders, which is the desired result of most marketing activities, but you'll still get replies from people who've saved your postcards. And "keeper cards" are a good thing. Why? Because if your recipients are keeping what you?re sending out, chances are good that they?ll eventually do business with you.
