Emotional Marketing

∗ It is marketing that builds your clients ego. ∗ It makes them feel better about themselves, the brand transcends

mere product status and is magically transformed into a friend. ∗ This gives the brand a heart and soul that builds life-long attachment.

These are brands that share their values and priorities. ∗ The client name drop the brand name to show others they’re cool.

Emotional Marketing

∗ Many times, the only acknowledgement of the product is a cursory mention in the end tag.

Core Level Persuasion

Emotional Marketing

∗ It plays on emotions that we WANT to feel, the ads just seem like friendly and intriguing bits of entertainment that leave us with a little warm glow.

∗ It waters our deepest hopes and dreams of being the people we fantasize about.

∗ These ads foster rebellion, courage, caring, sophistication, intelligence or any other powerfully coveted personal attribute. We adopt these brands as our own because they build our ego.

∗ If your product isn’t substantially better, try to fully utilize emotional marketing and build upon the customer’s deepest beliefs.

Most products are a blank canvas waiting to be painted with emotion.

Focus on the customer’s feeling

Emotional Marketing

∗ Target the feeling of the customers, not how they feel about the product but how they feel when using the product

∗ People will usually say they want reliable cars, but given the option they would like to drive fast and sporty cars

Emotional Marketing

∗ Start with the ego of your customers and build up from there.

∗ Most people have a powerful need to find products and people that affirm their sense of personal identity. ∗ They are just aching to find product brand

“friends” that remind them of their own most coveted traits.

∗ If you spend a lot of time listening to them about every part of their life, they will tell you exactly where they want to go.

Listen hard and let the customers tell you where to go.
