If we use all the grand words we can conjure up about our products, will customers believe them? Will those words increase the likelihood of conversion? Or, more likely, will they instill in customers an instinctive pushback against being convinced (manipulated?) to take an action?
In this YouTube Live session, Flint McGlaughlin, CEO and Managing Director, MECLABS Institute (parent research organization of MarketingExperiments), teaches a new way to think about the role of marketing.
In this series, you will learn:
• How to draw on the power of implication to win key positions in the mind
• The advantage of aiming at conclusions rather than forcing claims
• Six common copywriting mistakes on our webpages and strategies to avoid them
• Essential elements that ease the customer through the organic friction in your process
• How to ease the transition from micro-yes to micro-yes so that you achieve the ultimate yes (and win a customer)
• How to build hidden equity in your business by harnessing expectation
