What My Dog Can Teach You About Marketing

fasteasysuccess · 03-30-2010, 01:39 PM

It's funny I think my dog has been paying attention to me marketing sometimes. Here's a little lesson my dog can teach you...

She likes to do this thing with only a few people(maybe her target market) so she will wait to they go to sit down and then she'll leap to where there about to sit, so they'll move to the other spot or the other couch and she'll jump in their place again.

She'll do this for a while and it's pretty funny but she'll do it until I either tell her no or the person just gives up and waits for her to jump down.

So next time your thinking about one thing you could be doing in your business, think of what my dog would do...

Be where your target market is and is going to be. If they read a certain trade magazine, then advertise there. If they go online and search certain keywords, target those. What they do, what they read, what they want, what they watch. Once you get there and stay where your target prospects are, you'll be like sammy the dog and have the advantage.

People!

Please read the above post carefully!

The first time I read it, I thought the point was to keep jumping from one thing to another. I was ready to express my thoughts on that, but then I read it again...

Great post!

All the best,
Michael

People from Illinois usually call us something else entirely, and vice-versa. However, the prefered term is "Wisconsinite".

Yes, definitely best to advertise in front of your target market... especially with a message-to-market match with your sales letter. Online you'll find some keywords get a massive ROI whilst others come out at a loss... and some just scrape by. Has Sammy set up conversion tracking for your friends that come around? LOL.

fasteasysuccess · 03-30-2010, 10:40 PM

I'm working on that but she keeps chasing her tail when I tell her to concentrate-lol

Also your right with those keywords. So many clients when I do seo are so concerned with these broad major searched terms and I explain to them I would rather have as little as 10 targeted leads a day versus 1000 hits of garbage and non interested parties.

I have some words I target even for seo that google claims no one searches and they bring in good amount of leads and clients weekly, and I target some other words google says have major searches and receive less leads and conversions.

It's just a bit of fun really. I'm too busy on other projects at the moment to think about adding a product, but I probably will in due course.

Nice way to make a good point. There's another lesson in your post besides one you intended to tell.

A good story keeps your audience reading.

Good thing no fat buttom squashed your dog by mistake..!

fasteasysuccess · 03-31-2010, 01:23 PM

Nope sem-she was supposed to be the runt of the litter which turned into over 70 pound runt-lol

You're absolutely right Dennis-a story can definitely get a point across more effectively in copy and words.
