Short Term Formula for Results!
There are two parts to both the long term and the short term formula for getting results. Both have two parts, the message and the media execution.
The short term formula is:
UTOPIA - Message + Big "D" - Media Execution
Let's look at these elements separately:
UTOPIA - Message Utopia is an acronym for the message ingredients needed to make a strong commercial. Remember, you are going for people, ONLY IN THE MARKET TODAY, so the ad will sound "hyped".
UTOPIA stands for:
U - urgency Must have a deadline, set an expiration date T - theme Tie everything together with a theme O - offer A specific, spectacular offer P - price One price, one item ONLY I - intrusiveness If you don't get their attention, all the rest is worthless A - action Call to action, ask them to come in now!
Big "D" - Media Execution The Big "D" stands for DOMINANCE. You must dominate the media you're using. Radio is the cheapest media to dominate. For example - What does a half page cost for 1 day? Spend that same amount of dollars on one radio station in 1 day. You'll be the biggest advertiser that day on radio. You can't achieve that kind of dominance for the same amount of dollars in the paper.
Good dominance is one ad per hour, 24 hours per day. Never less than 12 ads per day between 6am and 7pm.
