Psychology of consumers

Ever wondered, why people like what they like? How things become popular?

The answer is MAYA theory, it stands for “Most Advanced Yet Acceptable”. Raymond Loewy(considered the father of industrial design) developed a theory of product design suggesting that consumers gain comfort from new products that have elements the consumer is already familiar with.

Consumers aren't aware that what they want is something new yet familiar. Successful companies like Nike, Apple etc on the other hand know a lot about this. They are masters of taste.

How useful is this to you? As you’re selling your products or services, look for ways to inject a bit of surprise in your selling message. It’s always possible to stand out with just the right amount of “new”.

A window to a new world, can also show you home".

UGC Content = Free Advertising 👀

First of all, what is UGC?
UGC, is User Generated Content... and it should be an essential part of your marketing plan, because posts containing or featuring UGC have a 4.5% higher conversation rate than non-UGC posts. UGC content is well-trusted by other users and trust leads to higher conversation rates. 8less’s top secret: think “offline-to-online strategy”, find what your customers are sharing and leverage the power of its social proof.

Ideal Customer Avatar

◾️What is an Ideal Client Avatar?
An ICA- is a fictional character that represents your ideal client based on demographics, behavioural characteristics, and psychographics.

◾️What is an ideal client?
Someone whose needs are met through your offerings.

◾️Should I have more than one ICA?
It depends on your business and number of offerings you have. If you’re a small business you should aim for no more than 2-3 to avoid watering down your message.

◾️Why do I need an ICA?
When you market to everyone, you’re in fact marketing to no one. So, it will help you create offers(products/services) that meet real needs and will also allow you to craft messaging that resonates and attracts the right type of audience to your brand.

◾️How does an ICA impact my business?
It will influence all aspects of your business - from product development to content marketing, to paid advertising, just to name few.

Now it’s time to identify your ICA••••>

Emotional branding and social media

“A great brand taps into emotions. Emotions drive fast, if not all, of our decisions. A brand reaches out with a powerful connecting experience. It’s an emotional connecting point that transcends the product”.

So, how can you use emotional branding for social media?

◾️Storytelling

The most effective way of connecting emotionally to consumers is through storytelling. Stories are incredibly powerful. Storytelling on social media is not just another tactic to sell products or services. It enables you to expose your brand to your audience, tell them what your brand is all about.

◾️ Belongingness

The feeling of belongingness is one of our basic needs as human beings and when brands tap into this emotion, they attempt to have a more direct emotional connect with their consumers. Many brands use this emotion to make customers feel like they’re a part of a particular group.

◾️ Humanize your brand

Be more human. Create conversation and talk with your audience(not at them) through social media, it will help you further understand your audience and make your brand appear more trustworthy and establish a sense of credibility.

Why do you need a rubricator?

Detailed rubrics are a skeleton for a content plan and post ideas. It is important to be able to balance between different types of posts, to be funny, interesting, informative at the same time, and not to forget about your goals.

Rubricator may look like this:

◾️selling posts - why your product / service needs to be bought (promo posts with a call to action, clients feedback, publications in the media)
◾️informational posts - brings useful information to the target audience(how to do’s, answers to readers' questions, product’s qualities, its origins, myths and facts about it)
◾️entertaining posts - light content to relax and laugh (games, business anecdotes, funny client types, unusual ways of using the product)

What is a Pain Point?

A pain point is a specific problem that potential customers of your business are experiencing. In other words, a pain point is the WHY, the WHEN and the REASON customers choose you!

How can you identify Pain Points?

Identifying pain points allows you to find gaps in the market to solve customers problems. You can identify them by surveying customers(feedback form), researching your competitors and reading online customer reviews.

Ask yourself: what type of pain am I solving? When you have the answer, push these pain points.
