Here Are The 11 Secrets To Direct Response Marketing - How To 
Get More Business To Come To You In A Month Than Most Get All 
Year! Discover The Real Reason Virtually All Businesses Never 
Make The Money They Could…And Should Be Making!


Secret #1:  Marketing Is Everything...Here's Why!  

From the first day you got into business, you were taught that 
knowledge about what you do was what you needed to become 
successful. That your "professionalism" will be the key to 
success. That people will come to you once they hear about how 
"good" you are. You were probably given the age old "wisdom" 
that says if you build a better mousetrap, the world will beat a
path to your door! "Yeah, right!" Which brings us to our first, 
and possibly, most important point: Knowing how to get customers,
clients or patients is infinitely more important than any other 
knowledge you may attain!


Secret #2:  If You Want Your Phone To Ring, Your Advertising  
Must Get People's Attention...And Arouse Emotions! 

If you remember just one secret from this article, remember to 
follow this proven five-step formula in every bit of marketing 
and advertising you do: 1. Get Attention! 2. Arouse interest 
and emotion. 3. Tell an interesting story in a believable way. 
4. Offer an incentive to take action...NOW. 5. Ask for action, 
and make it easy for people to do it. 


Secret # 3: Typical Yellow Pages Ads Get Typically Lousy 
Results! 

Another example of boring advertising is found in any Yellow 
Pages anywhere in the country. Most Yellow Pages ads are just 
a big blur! They all look exactly the same and do nothing to 
get anyone's attention! Can you spot one truly noticeable and 
different reason why a prospective customer or client or patient 
would be motivated to pick up the telephone and call one of the 
companies listed? The problem? Yellow pages "advertising" like 
this is just one big blur of sameness. There's nothing unique. 
Everybody looks the same and says the same stuff. You could 
literally swap names and phone numbers on the ads, and no one 
would even know the difference! To be a successful advertiser 
and marketer, you must always remember that...People Don't Read 
Ads That Look Like Advertising and Sales Pitches! The Secret Is 
All In The Headlines and Topics You Use!


Secret #4:  News-Style Advertising Gets Up To 500% Greater 
Response Than Image Advertising! 

Yes, you read that right. It's a proven advertising fact... 
News-style advertising gets up to 500% greater response than 
color brochures, business cards, and all other forms of product 
or image advertising. Do you know why? News style advertising 
doesn't look like advertising!  It looks like news. Very few 
people read advertising....but a lot of people read news and 
other stories. If It Looks Like Advertising, Most People Won't 
Read It.


Secret #5: Here's The Amazing Advertising System That Attracts 
Qualified, Motivated, Interested and Ready-To-Do Business 
Prospects…Without Any Wasted Traditional Advertising Or Cold 
Marketing!! 

Here's some common sense that seems to be missing in most 
businesses: You should never advertise or prospect to anyone 
who isn't a likely to buy customer in the very near future. 
We find that the highest profit system is to generate leads 
who are interested, and then do follow-up marketing to the 
leads that express interest, and to them ONLY! What better list 
could you mail to (other than your past customers) than people 
who have responded to your offer (usually free information) and 
said, "Tell me more, I'm interested."? This kind of list, (when 
marketed to properly with the right kind of killer advertising 
copy) can yield results and profits beyond anything you've ever 
imagined!


Secret # 6: Make It Easy And Non-Threatening For People To 
Respond To Your Emotionally Driven, News Style Ads! 

One of the most amazing things to us is how many advertisers 
make it hard to respond to your ads. With traditional, boring, 
cute and clever advertising, it's rare indeed to have someone 
want to respond. But, on that rare occasion, you make it even 
harder for them to respond by doing things like not having a 
toll free number they can call, or a 24 hour free recorded 
message attached to a toll free number, and so on. Real live 
testing has shown that virtually in all cases, where someone 
ran tests offering the exact same things in their ads, with 
the only difference being a toll free number versus a local 
number…the toll free number wins! And, when tests are done 
with the ads offering the exact same things except one has a 
plain toll free number and the other has a toll free 24 hour 
recorded message…the recorded message wins hands down, time 
after time.


Secret #7: TEST, TEST, TEST! 

The importance of this topic cannot be stressed enough. You 
must develop a mentality to always test everything you do, 
before rolling out in a big way. Testing is the most important 
way to be a smart survivor!  Don't ever feel like something is a 
failure if it doesn't work.  No matter what you do, you're not 
seeing failure or success. You're just seeing results. Nothing 
more. Nothing less. Just results. If the results are bad, then 
you need to adjust what you're doing. If the results are good, 
then do more and bigger of the same thing! The bottom line is 
this: The only true measure of your idea is what the market 
tells you with real, live testing! All the conjecture in the 
world will not replace a well-designed test! And testing with 
emotional direct response marketing increases your success rate 
more than any other form of advertising!


Secret # 8: The One Question That Your Advertising And Marketing 
Must Instantly Answer, Or People Won't Respond! 

Everyone is totally self-absorbed and selfish. All they care 
about is themselves, and maybe their family. How about you? Do 
you care about us, or what we think...or are you reading this 
because of what YOU thought you could get out of it? Of course, 
you're no different from us, or anyone else. All we care about is 
ourselves. It's just human nature. So, when doing any marketing 
or advertising, there's one question that your prospects are 
going to ask, subconsciously, when they see your ads or 
whatever: "What's In It For Me?" This is a major point you have 
to understand. If the headlines and copy and reports and client 
newsletters you use answer this question, they will be 
moneymakers for you! If they talk about things that don't answer 
this question, they will not create responses!


Secret #9: The Most Important Emotion To Create If You Want 
People To Call You! 

What is the single most important element that leads to 
responses? Do you know what this amazing Secret is? Well, do 
you? Curiosity! (Yes, we are all nosy as hell, whether you want 
to admit it or not!) Think about why news and publishing media 
use teasers as their headlines. Is it because they feel they 
are "professional" statements? No, we don't think so. We think 
that the reason they use them over and over and over is that 
they: Get responses like crazy! They know something that most 
advertisers and marketers have zero clue about. They know, if 
someone is curious, the person will be compelled to take some 
action in an attempt to satisfy their lust for nosiness.


Secret #10: Solving ALL Your Sales Problems Simply Requires You 
Solve Your MARKETING Problems! 

See, "selling" in the sense that we all think of it is really a 
dead activity. Nobody wants to be "sold" anything anymore. They 
want to BUY products and services and think it was their idea. 
Trying to suck people into hard selling techniques like 
"closing", "objection handling" or using any pressure is as 
successful as trying to push a string uphill! Here's the secret 
to solving sales problems: Solve your marketing problems and 
sales problems will go away! Using these techniques to get 
qualified, motivated and interested prospects into your 
marketing funnel exclusively, and make the right emotional 
connections with them…they will buy without anyone having to 
sell!


Secret # 11: Using The Right Media For Your Advertising That 
Delivers The Right Audience To You When The Prospects Are 
Receptive And Ready For Your Message…And That Can Be Tracked 
And Accounted For! 

Choosing where to place your now improved message that stimulates
responses is the final step in the success system! As technology 
has progressed, and as society becomes more complicated, 
specialized and fragmented…you must look hard to find the best 
place to advertise. The two requirements are that: 1. You get to 
the right people when they're receptive to you, and 2. That you 
can track and monitor your results! See, even if you develop the 
right advertising copy, and you find the right audience…it's 
still not very useful if you can't tell whether or not what 
you're doing is working at a cost affordable level!
