The "Fun" Way to Learn Direct Response Marketing
Funny stuff... funny stuff...
Yesterday, we were out at our local brew-pub getting our burger and beer fix. When out of the blue my spouse started to laugh. I thought she was poking fun at me.
Did I've something wedged during my teeth?
Would be a fry stuck to my cheek?
Turns out neither.
So when Gurus my spouse why she was chuckling, she explained she felt embarrassed saying.
Embarrassed?
I said:
"Honey, we can talk about anything. You are able to feel at ease saying what's in your thoughts. And I promise to not judge you..."
So she caved, and told me she was excited The american idol show was starting a brand new season.
The american idol show?
I had no clue this Television show was ramping back up.
So...
We finished our burgers and beer. We paid our waiter. And my wife drug me home to catch the very first episode. Positive thing too... as this show is bursting like a water balloon with tons of direct response marketing tips.
Like:
The power of celebrity marketing:
Just look at the judges on American Idol. Let's wait and watch. You got Steven Tyler who has been the front man for just one of the most successful hard rock bands of all time. Then, you have Jennifer Lopez who needs no explanation. And finally, you got Randy Jackson that has worked in the music biz since the dawn of the dinosaurs.
My point?
That Idol certainly uses plenty of celebrities to advertise the show.
The strength of contest marketing:
Contests are one of the fastest (and most fun) ways to grow a small company. Just look at Idol. Sure, the best goal is to win and be a famous recording artist. But what really gets contestants going is the whole idea that they're competing against everybody else.
And nobody loves to lose.
Just how do you need a contest to market your small business?
And the power of referral marketing:
Truth be told, one of the things Used to do to construct my small business therefore it dominated a very competitive niche is... I made use of multiple strategies that drove referrals through my doors all month long
The american idol show does this too.
Just take a look at the number of people waiting in line brought someone together... who wants to try out too. In some cases, they even brought members of the family.
Discuss the power of referral marketing.
There's many more marketing tips cleverly stuffed into each American Idol episode, you just have to understand what to look for.
And something last thing:
If you're seriously interested in growing your business, then more than likely all you need is a few more good ideas like the one in this article.
So ask yourself this:
Where are you able to turn for more plans like that which you just read in the following paragraphs?
In my humble opinion, you have to be careful in which you search for plans because just about everybody and their brother states be a so-called 'business expert'.
Remember:
Saying is a thing.
Doing is yet another.
And most of those "talking heads" haven't run their very own successful small business.
