Advertising’s Secret.

May 19th, 2008 · No Comments

Advertising is money.

This has come to be recognized as a principle in business. Competition is so keen, and we live in such busy times, that an entrepreneur’s only chance of success lies in proclaiming the merits of his products or services far and wide, up and down the market, and if possible globally.

The need to promote the business, to get the word out is forever present and has to be addressed with the strongest of the commitments.

He must act like the trumpeter in advance of the procession; its business is to attract attention. He must keep showing his product, the public attention must be sustained and preserved, and he who best succeeds in this has the best chance of making a fortune.

In this conviction almost every entrepreneur advertises. It is found not to be sufficient for the brick and mortar entrepreneur to put up a sign over his door, or for the internet marketer a banner in some web page, for people to come and look at; they must send out their signs and banners far and wide, with the spread like idea and purpose of infection, like a virus, and makes people see it and remember it in spite of themselves ; because like the sign motto of a sharp entrepreneur said: a business with no sign is a sign of no business.

To do this effectually requires tact and knowledge. It may be done costly and

ineffective, or cheap and profitable. All depends on how it is set about.

But one thing is highly advisable, it must be done boldly.

Experience is a good additive in this business, but in it`s absence,

concentration on the main objective and the commitment to reach it,

are recommended substitutes.

For entrepreneurs there has always been like a secret power in advertising.

Good advertising is nothing more nor less than good instructive and descriptive communication; the frank honest kind that convinces. A successful entrepreneur should be aware, and most probably is, that if that communication is unnatural, unreal, or insincere…it’s dead.

To give it life, the secret power is … personality. In all good form of advertisement there is a tremendous psychic influence; since the advertising to be effective must be simply incidental to the personal attachment created.

An ad of forty words should make the reader think four thousand words; a sales letter of four hundred, forty thousand; and a few minutes internet video or a TV commercial like the Oscar winning movie of the year. That’s exactly where the whole secret resides. It isn’t what you say,

write or film that counts but the chain of thought which your

advertising creates.

The obvious advice of this ‘secret’ to the entrepreneur is that if he

advertises and he wants to have a successful advertising campaign,

he should communicate with its prospects the same as he should

communicate across the counter with a costumer,

face to face…heart to heart .

And besides being a ‘secret’, it`s a sound advice, and it`s absolutely true.
