Are you frustrated by all the complicated marketing jargon and overwhelmed by sales pages, value propositions, and check-out carts? Well, I have good news for you! All marketing can be boiled down to just one simple thing. Want to know what it is? Dive in to Episode 131.
Recently, I was working with a new client on articulating her brand.
She’s in a completely different field than me or the people I normallyserve … not a writer, speaker, podcaster. A totally different field.
I realized that her clients feel the same way as my clients. And what she offers her clients is the same thing I offer mine.
The content and the methods are completely different, but the basic motivations are the same. In a world overrun with complicated strategies and tactics, we’ve made marketing way too hard. The truth is, at its core, all marketing boils down to one simple thing –connecting your audience’s deep-felt need with your ability to help solve their problem.
When you can keep that simple truth in mind, you’ll attract the people who need what you offer, even if you don’t have the snappiest conversion copy or slickest checkout cart.
Let’s talk about some practical ways you can do that.
1. The first point is to keep your marketing relatable to your market.
2. Another important aspect of effective marketing is using your audience’s own words to describe their problems and emotions.
3. If the key to good marketing is to understand your clients’ need and how you can meet it, keep this attitude throughout the entire sales funnel.
