Linking Features & Benefits

Written by Robert F. Abbott


Continued from page 1

In developing a communication strategy,repparttar means-end concept offers a couple of important tools. First, it suggests a way to structure messages. Start with attributes, link those attributes to personal consequences, and then linkrepparttar 140722 consequences to satisfying personal value-needs. Second, it may help us predictrepparttar 140723 impact of our messages.

For example, say your manufacturing plant is about to buy and install a major piece of machinery, and you want employees to know about it. Forrepparttar 140724 plant newsletter, you write an article, starting with attributes ofrepparttar 140725 new machinery. Now, link those attributes to personal consequences: The new equipment enhancesrepparttar 140726 long-term viability ofrepparttar 140727 plant, which makes employees' jobs more secure. And, secure jobs satisfy an important value requirement among employees, which is to provide their families with a good standard of living.

But, suppose you finish writing aboutrepparttar 140728 attributes, and you can't get a grip onrepparttar 140729 personal consequences for employees, or how it will satisfy their value needs. That should help you predict thatrepparttar 140730 message will fall on deaf - perhaps even hostile - ears.

Given that knowledge, you can rethink what you're doing, what you're saying, or how you're saying it.

In summary, by linking features and benefits, we give ourselves an opportunity to understand and construct effective messages, for both marketing and other purposes.

c) Each time, my mind urges me to ‘sell’, I have to breathe deeply and think aboutrepparttar main principle. My intent is NOT to sell, but to bless, heal and prosperrepparttar 140682 customer.

d) I must, in any situation, whether onrepparttar 140683 phone conference call, in my ads, in my articles, or facing a huge audience, completely focus on ONE individual only, and talk as if I were face to face with my best friend. The degree of intimacy and attention are unparalleled, and thus make me adequate and successful. When speaking to one individual with foremost care and sensitivity,repparttar 140684 energy and light I generate will be sufficient to warm up and influence every one concerned, regardless whether close-by, or onrepparttar 140685 other end ofrepparttar 140686 world.

How do I know? The bible isrepparttar 140687 best example. It speaks in depth to one individual at a time, and reflects uponrepparttar 140688 student his, or her unique situation, sequence of events and brings wisdom home, while also giving clues in regards to all of humanity.

e) As a spiritual being, I realize that money isrepparttar 140689 mere shadow of value. If I am money-oriented, it becomes obvious to others that I am mislead. Why would any intelligent being makerepparttar 140690 Don Quichotte (a story told by Cervantes)?

3- The Words I Use Stand For Only 16% Of My Message

Now that I have become one with my products and services, I also have to be that single-minded person to offer them torepparttar 140691 people to whom they will be helpful and beneficial. Who else would knowrepparttar 140692 wave I am riding as intimately as I?

There is a tiny population inrepparttar 140693 Amazon, whose members do not articulate any language. They utter small sounds, almost as Dolphins do. When a research team arrived there for observation, one main woman facedrepparttar 140694 researcher directly, and he was able to seerepparttar 140695 pictures and meaning she was conveying to him. She also told him that her tribe existed to show humanity what they were originally capable of.

What does this ‘heart to heart’ communication symbolize?

The Living Word, orrepparttar 140696 Common Denominator Of Understanding Language, Body Language, Heart Language in spite of words used. I let no self-serving idea interfere, and, once again, rememberrepparttar 140697 Primary Principle. Not one orrepparttar 140698 other, onlyrepparttar 140699 combination of an innocent and peaceful heart can use our original Glory torepparttar 140700 max. This is how I addrepparttar 140701 remaining 84% to my offer – and WIN – WIN becomesrepparttar 140702 reality.

What does this mean to you? No matter what they tell you in regards to which words to use, YOU USE YOUR OWN UNIQUE EXPRESSION. It’s your sincerity, my friend, not your slick savvy, hypnotic ability, or intellectual high-flight.

Here’s a tip that can almost guarantee your additional impact, even if you are still working on your ‘heart language’. How about adding your own unfailing angel’s voice to your presentation, whose lure, extending beyond your good-will, brings your message home, every time, because it emphasizes your real, natural voice and capacity?
