Top 12 Advertising Mistakes to Avoid Spending all your money
on advertising but getting no results?
Find out whether you're guilty of committing one of these huge blunders
Roy H. Williams
Q: I've spent a ton of money advertising in lots of
different media, but it doesn't seem like I have much to
show for it. Can you tell me plainly and simply how to
advertise so it will work?
A: I applaud your honesty. The simple truth is, most
advertisers feel just like you do, but their pride won't
let them admit it. Unfortunately, I don't have a "success
pill" for you to swallow, but I can describe each of the
most common mistakes you will need to avoid:
1. The quest for instant gratification: The ad that creates
enough urgency to cause people to respond immediately is
the ad most likely to be forgotten immediately once the
offer expires. It is of little use in establishing the
advertiser's identity in the mind of the consumer.
2. Trying to reach more people than the budget will allow:
For a media mix to be effective, each element in the mix
must have enough repetition to establish retention in the
mind of the prospect. Too often, however, the result of a
media mix is too much reach and not enough frequency. Will
you reach 100 percent of the people and persuade them 10
percent of the way? Or will you reach 10 percent of the
people and persuade them 100 percent of the way? The cost
is the same.
3. Assuming the business owner knows best: The business
owner is uniquely unqualified to see his company or product
objectively. Too much product knowledge leads him to answer
questions no one is asking. He's on the inside looking out,
trying to describe himself to a person on the outside
looking in. It's hard to read the label when you're inside
the bottle.
4. Unsubstantiated claims: Advertisers often claim to have
what the customer wants, such as "highest quality at the
lowest price," but fail to offer any evidence. An
unsubstantiated claim is nothing more than a cliché the
prospect is tired of hearing. You must prove what you say
in every ad. Do your ads give the prospect new information?
Do they provide a new perspective? If not, prepare to be
disappointed with the results.
5. Improper use of passive media: Nonintrusive media, such
as newspapers and yellow pages, tend to reach only buyers
who are looking for the product. They are poor at reaching
prospects before their need arises, so they're not much use
for creating a predisposition toward your company. The
patient, consistent use of intrusive media, such as radio
and TV, will win the hearts of relational customers long
before they're in the market for your product.
6. Creating ads instead of campaigns: It is foolish to
believe a single ad can ever tell the entire story. The
most effective, persuasive and memorable ads are those most
like a rhinoceros: They make a single point, powerfully. An
advertiser with 17 different things to say should commit to
a campaign of at least 17 different ads, repeating each ad
enough to stick in the prospect's mind.
7. Obedience to unwritten rules: For some insane reason,
advertisers want their ads to look and sound like ads. Why?
8. Late-week schedules: Advertisers justify their obsession
with Thursday and Friday advertising by saying "We need to
reach the customer just before she goes shopping." Why do
these advertisers choose to compete for the customer's
attention each Thursday and Friday when they could have a
nice, quiet chat all alone with her on Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday?
9. Overconfidence in qualitative targeting: Many
advertisers and media professionals grossly overestimate
the importance of audience quality. In reality, saying the
wrong thing has killed far more ad campaigns than reaching
the wrong people. It's amazing how many people become "the
right people" when you're saying the right thing.
10. Event-driven marketing: A special event should be
judged only by its ability to help you more clearly define
your market position and substantiate your claims. If 1
percent of the people who hear your ad for a special event
choose to come, you will be in desperate need of a traffic
cop and a bus to shuttle people from distant parking lots.
Yet your real investment will be in the 99 percent who did
not come! What did your ad say to them?
11. Great production without great copy: Too many ads today
are creative without being persuasive. Slick, clever, funny,
creative and different are poor substitutes for informative,
believable, memorable and persuasive.
12. Confusing response with results: The goal of
advertising is to create a clear awareness of your company
and its unique selling proposition. Unfortunately, most
advertisers evaluate their ads by the comments they hear
from the people around them. The slickest, cleverest,
funniest, most creative and most distinctive ads are the
ones most likely to generate these comments. See the
problem? When we confuse response with results, we create
attention-getting ads that say absolutely nothing.

Today's Motivational Reading
Are You in Touch With Your Inner "M"?
Donna Monday
"M" is for Motivation.
What motivates you to do a good job?
Is it a sense of achievement?
Recognition for a job well done?
Helping people?
Desire for responsibility?
Solving problems?
Making more money?
You should give some thought to what motivates you to do
your job better and allows you to feel a real sense of job
satisfaction. Motivation is one of those thought-provoking
questions that some interviewers may ask you while you're
interviewing for a job. Be prepared to answer the question:
What motivates you?
Prepare for this challenging question in advance so you won'
t ramble if asked. Having a motivated employee may be one
of the qualities an interviewer wants to see during the
interview, so think about the times you really felt
enthusiastic and/or energized at work. What made you feel
that way?
That's your motivation.

The Wonders of Compound Interest
Rosella Aranda
Albert Einstein called compound interest “the greatest
invention of all time.” It has even been referred to as the
“Eighth Wonder of the World.” The trick is to get this
tremendous force working for you rather than against you.
Is compound interest gobbling up a significant chunk of
your earnings? If you maintain an ongoing balance with a
credit card company, compound interest is costing you much
more than you probably realize.
Let’s start with basic interest, which is a fee that you
pay to a lender for the privilege of borrowing his money.
This interest is attached to the original amount at an
agreed upon rate. Compound interest is calculated on the
balance owing plus any previous interest charges. So then
you find yourself paying interest on the interest. This
compounding effect continues until it virtually takes on a
life of its own. Credit card lenders make a killing putting
this principle to work for them. Allow me to illustrate.
Let’s say you’re carrying a balance of $1,000 on a credit
card with a 15% APR. If you pay only the minimum each month,
you could conceivably gnaw away at this debt for over 25
years and end up repaying a total of over $3,400! If, on
the other hand, you could commit yourself to paying $100
per month, this debt would be wiped out in less than a
single year and the interest would come to a much less
offensive $75.
Now let’s look at what would happen if you took $1,000 and
put it to work for you instead of against you. Let’s assume
that you are able to keep your hands off this money and
simply let it sit and earn 6% interest compounded annually.
After 12 years, your money would have doubled without you
adding one extra penny!
You can quickly figure out in your head how long it will
take for a sum of money to double by applying the “Rule of
72.” You simply take whatever interest rate you’re earning (
6% in this case) and divide it into 72. The result will be
the number of years required to double your money. (72/6 =
12 in our example)
You can apply the rule backwards as well. Let’s say you
have a lump sum of $5,000 that you would like to grow into $
10,000 in 8 years. You would need to find an investment
that pays 9% compound interest. (72/8 = 9). If the best you
can find is an 8% return on your money (hypothetically
speaking,) then it would take you 9 years to double your
money. Not bad for just letting it sit there!
Now let’s assume that you want to help the growth rate
along, so you add an extra hundred dollars to this account
just once a year. At the end of the 12 years, you would now
have $3,800. If you could discipline yourself enough to add
$200 a year, then you would find yourself with almost $5600.
Seeing your money grow like this might well entice you to
invest more money each month and really reap the benefits
of this wealth-generating principle. And there’s more good
news. These examples demonstrate what happens when your
investment compounds annually. Some institutions are more
generous, compounding your interest quarterly, monthly or
even daily.
It’s pretty clear which end of the compound interest
principle you want to be on. The first step toward the
winners’ circle is to pay off your existing debts. Even if
you’re already having trouble making ends meet, a mere $1
addition to a minimum payment can significantly shorten the
life of that loan. That’s right, just one dollar. You won’t
miss it and it would be well worth it. Remember the
compounding effect. And once you’re out of debt, there’s no
minimum for earning compound interest. Any sum that you can
set aside will do. You don’t need to be Donald Trump or
Bill Gates in order to benefit from compound interest. It
can work wonders for us all.
