Questions-Afraid to ask
In marketing terms the accepted wisdom is that you should always ask your customers and potential customers questions. That way they are more likely to feel loved, wanted and listened to. However, in today’s ramblings I want to ask what are the questions we, as marketers, should be asking ourselves.
The obvious ‘marketing ‘ type questions are:
- how can I make more sales
- where can I find more potential customers
- what can I do to reduce my overheads
- how can I increase my profit margins
- where can I find more products to sell
I don’t really want to touch on those today but here are some more intangible questions?
- how can I become a better father/mother/wife/husband?
- what is my purpose?
- how can I break out of the endless cycle I’m in?
- why can’t I lose some weight
These philosophical questions and many others, that we seem to shy away from or put on the back burner, are really quite valid and just the idea that we can and should think about them from time to time can be quite refreshing.
Tell us what your questions are and lets see what the world is thinking about!!
