The "Fun" Way to Learn Direct Response Marketing

Funny stuff... funny stuff...

Yesterday, my wife and I were out at our local brew-pub getting our burger and beer fix. When without warning my wife started to laugh. I figured she was laughing at me.

Did I've something wedged in my teeth?

Would be a fry stuck to my cheek?

Works out neither.

So when I asked my wife why she was chuckling, she told me she felt embarrassed telling me.

Embarrassed?

I said:

"Honey, we are able to discuss anything. You are able to feel at ease telling me what's on your mind. And that i promise not to judge you..."

So she caved, and explained she was excited American Idol was starting a brand new season.

The american idol show?

I had no clue this TV show was ramping back up.

So...

We finished our burgers and beer. We paid our waiter. And my wife drug me home to catch the very first episode. Good thing too... because this show is bursting like a water balloon with a lot of direct response marketing tips.

Like:

The strength of celebrity marketing:

Just look at the judges on American Idol. Let's see. You got Steven Tyler who has been the leading man for one of the most successful hard rock bands of all time. Then, you have Jennifer Lopez who needs no explanation. And lastly, you got Randy Jackson who has worked in the music biz since the dawn of the dinosaurs.

My point?

That Idol certainly uses plenty of celebrities to advertise the show.

The power of contest marketing:

Contests are among the fastest (and many fun) methods to grow a small business. Just look at Idol. Sure, the best goal is to win and become a famous recording artist. But what really gets contestants going is the whole idea that they're competing against everyone else.

And nobody likes to lose.

So how can you use a contest to market your small business?

And also the power of referral marketing:

Honestly, one of the things I did to construct my small company so it dominated a very competitive niche is... I made use of multiple strategies that drove referrals through my doors all month long

American Idol does this too.

Just take a look at the number of people browsing line brought someone with them... who would like to try out too. In some cases, they can brought family members.

Talk about the power of referral marketing.

There's many more marketing tips cleverly stuffed into each The american idol show episode, you just have to know what to look for.

And one very last thing:

If you're seriously interested in growing your business, then more than likely all you need is a few more good ideas such as the one out of this article.

So think about this:

Where are you able to turn for more plans like what you just read in this article?

In my humble opinion, you need to be careful where you look for plans because almost everyone and their brother claims to be considered a so-called 'business expert'.

Remember:

Saying is one thing.

Doing is another.

And most of these "talking heads" haven't run their very own successful small business.
