Sell the Sizzle
| There's an old saying in sales and marketing, "sell the sizzle, not the steak." |
|
Talking about romantic hideaways in paradise sells the sizzle.
In consumer marketing, and even to a degree in business-to-business marketing, the sizzle sells. That doesn't mean you ignore the features and benefits.
But look at any auto commercial and you'll see a heavy emphasis on sizzle - and how many autos would sell without that?
Look for the romance, beauty or drama in your product and promote that with your marketing copy and imagery.
