Why your marketing doesn’t make sense to everyone
Wednesday, August 15, 2012 · Topics: customer-experience, learning-styles, marketing
From Mind Power Marketing: When you communicate with people, they receive the information using one of five sensory modalities – visual, auditory, kinesthetic, olfactory and gustatory (or in everyday language – pictures, sounds, feelings, smells and tastes). And, in creating an ‘Internal Representation’ inside our mind, we use the same sensory modalities – with the addition of one more – ‘auditory digital’ or self-talk. However, it’s crucial to recognize that individuals experience those senses in different proportions. Some people may pay more attention to their visual experiences, while others may find their feelings (whether internal or external) more important. In communicating with somebody, it’s therefore important that you’re able to relate to all of the senses. · Go to Why your marketing doesn’t make sense to everyone →
