"You Had Me At..."
Steve Woodruff
The elevator pitch is dead - let's get to the point with your Memory Dart! I'll show you how to introduce yourself and your business with outstanding clarity. #ClarityWins #ConfusionLoses
Question: what do networking introductions, booth backdrops, LinkedIn profiles, website homepages, resumes, email subject lines, and every marketing or advertising piece ever made in human history have in common?
Answer: the first few seconds.
You either earn audience engagement in that initial moment of truth...or you don't.
Successful people win the battle for attention. That's why refining your message with clarity and simplicity is absolutely mission-critical.
You've heard that first impressions are lasting impressions.
They may also be last impressions. Opportunity lost.
Clarity at the point of relevance produces that magical "you had me at..." moment. Confusion, complexity, jargon*, and TMI (too much information) drive people away.
Can you afford to be unclear? If not, contact me, and let's get you and your messaging in the winner's circle.

5 个月Great insights @steve Steve Woodruff . I think about it as buying a lease on someone’s attention. A lease that needs to be renewed every 8 seconds
