This week on the ‘Pete Godfrey Persuasion Show’ me and producer Blake Sterling jam about selling:

  • The crazy Facebook post that had me laughing my head off at the ridiculousness of folks who feel the need to share EVERYTHING on social media (and how you can profit from this ridiculousness)
  • The 5 selling objectives you MUST be clear on before you put pen to paper on ALL your marketing material
  • Why railing against the incongruent folks in your market gives you posture (and how this builds connection with your tribe)
  • Demonstrate your ‘wizardry’. The secret to sharing your successes without sounding like an ego-maniac (a lot of people miss this…so listen in)
  • Why your marketing will be limp and lifeless without this one 7 letter word
  • The power of social proof (why letting others share their success in working with you is a killer persuasion technique that works in ANY market)
  • Why I believe no matter where you are or what you do you are ALWAYS selling (and how you can take advantage of this fact to boost your bank balance)
  • My tips for selling in non-selling environments (yes, there are methods you can use to sell your products and services where, at times, it may seem like you have no hope of selling)
  • Why you need to create curiosity about you and your business (and the methods I use that you can model)
  • What Matt Furey (arguably the world’s BEST living email copywriter) taught me about teachers and entertainers… and why teachers are some of the poorest paid people on the planet
  • Why being ‘infotaining’ trumps ‘educating’
  • How to inspire your market (and why facts and figures have no personal reference)
  • Fishing for the perfect client…why constantly planting ‘seeds’ around your ideal client brings in the marney
  • The two kinds of stories I always tell for big results on my own bottomline
  • Dan Kennedy’s advice on writing content (and why all the content you write is marketing material)
  • Plus a whole lot more wizardry coming your way…
