Creating A Store That Sells Through Education and Entertainment
| |
| Ever been lost and confused in one of these shops where the product is either unfamiliar or fairly technical – like home electronics, mobile phones or medicines? I regularly see customers in these places (and I am often one of them) that are just going through the aisles looking bedazzled, faced with rows of identically looking objects with some technical jargon words written on labels...
Simply putting stock on shelves and hoping that customers will buy it does not work, a different approach is required. |

Words of Power
| |
| Words have power – words spoken with clear intent and emotion carry more power than just random words on a page. Many businesses try and create their business plan or marketing material by just copying what someone else has done. They take the words, shuffle them around a bit and then label it with their company name. |

Effective Business Communication Counts On Lean Writing Skills
| |
| In a business communication world saturated with near-instantaneous electronic messages, I start with the premise that the people you're writing for are too busy to absorb massive clots of verbiage. I'm talking about numbers of words as well as the length of the words themselves. Any thesaurus can give you a multisyllabic replacement for a lean word that hits the spot. Likewise, any bureaucrat or consultant can pile jargon-choked paragraph on top of ponderous paragraph. But to what end?
In a way that might not have occurred to you, effective written communication is really about tone. The best advice I ever got about business writing skills can be summed up this way: "Be yourself, warm and personal. You're writing to real people, not an organization." Another take: "Write as if you're conversing with an intelligent friend."

Transform Technical Jargon into Reader-Friendly Marketing Materials
| |
| Turn 50-cent words into 5-cent words. Go through your writing and find every word with three or more syllables. Then try to replace it with one or two shorter words. Of course, sometimes technical jargon needs to be in there. But you can always explain the techie bits using less technical lingo and shorter words.

••••••>Avoid the Use of "Stop Words" in Your Keyword Selections
| |
| SEO involves the process of investigating keywords to use on your site, do not waste your time on using Stop Words in your keyword selections. Stop words are actually ignored by Google and the other search engine spiders. Stop words are small, common words that are used on every website: words like "a," "the," and "and" are the most frequently used words on the Internet and should be avoided in keywords when possible. |

| I have tested changing just 2 words that were deep in the text, words that made it clear I cared a great deal about making a sale. I changed them into words that were indifferent and the response went up by 180%. What were those words? |

Ode to Words
| |
| Enrich your vocabulary every day by scheduling time to read. Be curious about the words you don’t understand. Become aware of the words that live inside your head by journaling. Use the power of words by adopting a mantra. Our language shapes our thinking. Our words ultimately define us. Who do you want to be? |

What language are YOU speaking?
| |
| Why do salespeople speak the “language of words” when their customers are speaking the “language of numbers”? Salespeople are using words to describe their features and functions; they use words in describing their benefits. They use words in their PowerPoint presentations, proposals and collateral materials. Words everywhere! Where’s the $, %, #’s? |
