<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Simple</strong></span> &#8211; Create a Simple Message<br />
Kiss  &#8211; Keep It Simple Stupid<br />
Sticky = Simple<br />
Simple yet profound &#8211; i.e. Clinton&#8217;s &#8220;It&#8217;s the economy stupid&#8221;<br />
Simple Ideas presented well will sell.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Unexpected</strong></span> &#8211; Give them a marketing message they won&#8217;t be expecting.<br />
Surprise them with your unique standout message and then back it up.<br />
Our brain is wired to notice something different.<br />
Use this when building your marketing story.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Concrete</strong></span><br />
Provide concrete data &#8211; the brain is also wired to accept and understand concrete data readily.<br />
Ask yourself &#8211; what associations to your message can you conjuring up that will help back up your statement?</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Credible</strong></span><br />
The brain is also Wired to believe facts.<br />
Use facts in a credible way like :<br />
Create Sticky Thoughts through painting pictures that prove your point through things that everyone can relate to.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Emotional</strong></span><br />
Logic leads to conclusions but Emotions lead to actions.<br />
We relate to human stories, use emotion in your story telling when selling your point.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Stories</strong></span><br />
Tell stories to make your marketing message stick.<br />
Use the principles like Subway did with the Jarred Story Campaign.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to build your brand presence with P.O.P and customized marketing products from <a href="http://www.gallantgifts.com" target="_blank">GallantGifts.com</a></p>
