Target the Heart of Your Customer, NOT their Wallet
"HOW TO SUCK CASH FROM YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE A HEAVY DUTY HOOVER!!"
How many times have you come across Internet ads that sound like this? I hope you thought, "too often!"
Personally, I cringe when I read something like this. After all, MY customers are NOT wads of money and my business is NOT the vacuum through which to suck up their hard earned dollars!
Granted, selling is a process, and a certain amount of *sizzle* is required. Successful marketers and advertisers know that consumers purchase what they *want* and not what they *need*. It is my belief that as entrepreneurs, we should present what our customers want, in order to deliver what they need. Make sense?
I was a guest panelist at a seminar earlier this year and had the priviledge to meet and hear a great man named Clay Cotton speak about "Love Based Marketing". As I listened to this former professional piano player (with the likes of Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin to mention just a few), now sadly stricken with Multiple Schlerosis speak about his concept, I couldn't help but think that although I never
really thought about selling as having anything to do with "Love", that in fact everything I had done successfully throughout my life was approached just as he so eloquently portrayed.
The Internet is saturated enough with scams, shams and flim- flams and to see sincere Internet entrepreneurs using copy along the lines of what I opened with, is a real shame.
There's nothing wrong with making money. In fact, there's everything right about making lots of it! But to focus *on money* as your end goal while degrading your customer in your advertising will be a *costly* mistake in the long run if you make it!
I need say nothing more than repeat the title of my article - Target the Heart of Your Customer, NOT their Wallet!
Oh yeah, keep the Hoover in the closet!
