Face the Business Tugs-of-War: Time vs. Money and Intellect vs. Emotion

Do you remember playing tug-of-war on the playground? I recall the sheer joy of pulling on a rope with friends, competing against another team, often ending in laughter and muddy clothes. Playground tug-of-war is fun. But business tug-of-war is less so. Let me explain…

I first learned this idea from Roy Williams, the "Wizard of Ads." He highlights the importance of understanding the tugs-of-war that businesses face. One of the key battles is between time and money. Customers often have to choose between saving time or saving money, and understanding this can significantly impact how you position your products or services. High-value clients, for example, are generally willing to pay more if it means saving their precious time.

Another tug-of-war in marketing is between intellect and emotion. While many marketing strategies focus on the logical aspects of a product or service, appealing to the emotions of your audience can be far more effective. Emotional decisions are often the first step in the buying process, with logic serving as a justification after the fact. Thus, winning the hearts of your audience can lead to winning their minds and, ultimately, their business.

This matches my experience as a book publisher. Many people dream of becoming an author, yet the daunting task of writing a book can be overwhelming. It requires significant time and effort, which many business owners simply cannot afford to spare. This is where our service comes in. By offering a process that significantly reduces the time investment required to become a bestselling author, we cater to business owners who value their time over money.

And a book is the perfect expression of your intellectual expertise in physical form—paired with your emotional experiences. Your book is home to your stories, not just your insights. A prospect who sits down with your book for two hours will get up from their seat feeling emotionally closer to you, as well as mentally enlightened.

Do you recognize the value of becoming an author? Are you deterred by the time commitment and the intricacies of writing? That’s why I invented the Speak-to-Write method. We interview you, then transform your spoken words into a published masterpiece. This approach not only saves time but also ensures that your voice remains authentic. You don’t have to stare at a blank screen, struggling to transcribe your thoughts. Instead, express your ideas freely, leaving the transformation into written words to professionals. The result is a book that helps you gain more clients, get more referrals, and grow your revenue.
