Most people, most of the time, buy most of their stuff on emotion and impulse.
People may talk to friends, read reviews, pore over product specs and make pro-and-con lists. But here is the real fact every marketer should know: Your prospect buys because of how they feel.
Listing product features will not make an emotional connection. You must create stories for your customers – based on what you know they love and care about.
Prospect Meets Product
It’s not “hero slays dragon” – stories must show how your product solves your customer’s problems.
The classic line on the guy buying a drill fits here: “He doesn’t want a drill…what he wants is a hole.”
Your marketing must hook prospects with a story.
