Tips for Better Catalogs

I’ve picked up catalogs before where it seemed like the company who made it didn’t really care about marketing with it. This is a list of products and little else. The words they used in the product descriptions and the way they formatted the catalog suggests they had no interest in trying to sell anything.

Give Them a Sense of Urgency

Most people aren’t going to put a lot of thought to advertisements when they read them. The reason is because of just how many advertisements there are out there. They’ll take in what the information says, but that doesn’t mean they’ll always be inclined to apply it to them personally.

It’s All About Your Image

Customers don’t look at the inner workings of a company. When they first look at a store or are handed a business card, they’re not looking at the sales charts for the company or the experience the people working there have.

The Pickup Artist and Her Period

Research efforts on the influence of the menstrual cycle on female sexual behavior have shown that women are more receptive to the ‘alpha’ or very masculine facial features on a man during the window of ovulation when they are most fertile. In contrast, they are more receptive to the ‘feminine’ facial features on a man during menstruation when they are less likely to be impregnated. I got a bit disheartened when i first heard about this. I’ve always been fairly contented with my face but one surely wouldn’t label it as overly ‘masculine’. My lips are fat and red, I don’t have the square jaw line that Arnold has, my cheekbones are higher and my skin is soft and properly moisturized;) I’m basically endowed (along with many men) some facial attributes that could be seen as more ‘feminine’. But eventually i realized that I still had just as vast a window of opportunity as my more masculine and chiseled faced friends did because ovulation and menstruation last for about the same extent of time. Although I will spend a lot more money on new sheets and towels than Lou Ferrigno ever did, I am a lot less likely to have an unwanted pregnancy and that’s one major advantage.

Dating Tips: The Preemptive Friendzone

I have often heard members of The Seduction community express the idea that ending up in the ‘friend zone’ is sad news. Usually when I hear it mentioned in a workshop the fear becomes tangible.

The Importance of Databases

It can seem so technical. Only large companies are going to have extensive databases about all of their sales along with any other information they feel like keeping track of.

For the small business owner, using something a little less formal might be better, you might think to yourself. If you work freelance you might even just try to remember who your clients are by simply remembering. After all, if your customer base is small enough, why not just keep track of it in your head?
