For Impact Podcast with Jared Erni

Summary:

In this episode of the For Impact podcast, the host shares a personal experience of going into anaphylactic shock and relates it to the symptoms of poor marketing that many business owners face. He emphasizes the importance of addressing the root causes of poor marketing and provides three key principles to improve marketing effectiveness.

By implementing these principles, businesses can attract higher quality clients and achieve better results.

2. Sell the transformation that your product or service can provide, rather than focusing on the features.
3. Create a great offer that adds value and connects with customers emotionally.
