Subliminal Marketing Secrets

Creating your own vocabulary for small business marketing is a powerful subliminal marketing secret.

Creating new names or renaming the commonplace can make something appear very powerful and new.

More detailed information on these techniques can be found in my book "Subliminal Persuasion: Influence and Marketing Secrets They Don't Want You to Know

The Subliminal Selling Secret 

The most effective marketers and persuaders are carefully crafting, positioning, and packaging stories and ideas to make them most believable and most credible to the public. The extent to which the positioning and packaging is effective will determine the ease with which the idea is accepted.

Another word for this kind of messaging is branding. Your brand communicates with your customer at a very subliminal level and if the story your brand tells is a good one it becomes real in the mind of the consumer.

Control the Narrative 

When you control the narrative, you control the outcome. Stories have the ending that the writer writes, not the ending that you necessarily want. It is up to you as a persuader to begin analyzing the stories you are telling in order to control the narrative in the mind of the person you are persuading. Determine what the story is.

Ask yourself the following questions:

  • Is this the correct story that I want the masses to tell each other about me or my company?

  • In what ways can the story be enhanced to create a much more congruent and emotional narrative that will move the masses?

  • What is the meta-message of the story that is currently being told and does it need to be changed or improved?

Develop your 30 second elevator pitch that initiates your narrative interaction with your prospects.

The Meta-Message 

The Meta-Message of your story or the ideological statement is the conclusion you want someone to draw from the story.

In the example of the tortoise and the hare, the essence is that slow but steady always wins over quick but careless.

The moral of the story is that carelessness costs the race and the story provides the proof.

It is important that you maintain only one clear meta-message in each story.

Stories with too many ideas and morals included are difficult to understand and draw a clear conclusion.

Control The Emotion and The Content 

Emotions nearly always play a significant role in achieving persuasion.

In sales it is often said that people buy emotionally and justify rationally.

Emotions by their very definition are feelings that spring outward in response to some stimulus. To be subliminally persuasive you must understand which emotions you are appealing to and attempting to get a reaction from.

Here are the steps for setting up emotional appeal:

  1. Identify the emotions you are appealing to

  2. Create vivid word picture that point to the emotions

  3. Ask powerful questions that get the audience to put themselves in the picture and experience what they are or would be feeling. Questions are your secret weapon to leading people into an experience.

  4. Suggest what they are feeling and acknowledge it.

  5. Encourage them to feel more of that emotion and if an emotion they'd like less of link to your product, service or idea.

When your audience is in an emotional state they are not focused on critical thinking; they are caught up in the feelings that the emotions create.
