What to do when you can’t figure out what people want from you next

by Max Simon · Aug 22, 2016 · 16 Comments

Have you ever tried to guess what people want from you and your business, and guessed wrong? It sucks. Because now you've put time, energy, and money into creating something that people aren't really that interested in, even if you are. Now sometimes you can guess right if you have a ton of direct experience working with clients, because you're hearing from them what they want / struggle with / are needing next.

Stop using fancy words

by Max Simon · Aug 12, 2016 · 24 Comments

Are you missing “specificity” in your marketing?

by Max Simon · Aug 10, 2016 · 46 Comments

OK, after reading all of your comments about the hunger you speak to from yesterday's post, today's marketing lesson is about "specificity".

Why people buy

by Max Simon · Aug 9, 2016 · 29 Comments

If you were to ask me the #1 most important part of your marketing plan, I wouldn't hesitate for even a second... "You have to speak to the hunger of your tribe." Here's what I mean... The reason you (or anyone else) buys anything is because of your own internal self-motivation. It's not because you need it. It's not because someone else told you it's good for you. It's because you WANT it, and that's what compels you to move forward. If you don't believe me, just look at the last 3 things you purchased. Could be that Starbucks that has too many calories in it.... but …

An Easy Way to Understand Your Market’s Deepest Wants and Desires

by James Roche · Mar 22, 2016 · 10 Comments

Marketing isn’t hard. It’s simply knowing what your market wants and giving exactly that back to them. The amount of money you can make is directly correlated to how well you know the inner desires of your audience. And often their deepest wants are hidden. Sure, they may say they want x, y, and z (for example, “I want to lose 10 pounds, I want to make more money, I want to find a mate). But to really understand your audience you need to uncover the emotion behind the surface desire. There’s always a deeper motivation that drives us to buy things.
