This week we will be focusing on Marketing with purpose.

Many business owners think getting more leads is the best thing they can do. If you do not have a plan or purpose for gaining more leads what’s the point? Telling the story of your purpose reminds you, your team and your clients how they connect to what you are doing.

Results, Purpose and Massive Action Plan.

This idea is based on Tony Robbins’ Rapid Action Plan. Every great marketing plan has these three steps. Before starting anything you need to know the results you want as well as the overall purpose. If you do not know these two things you can’t really speak to your audience. This is a significant mindset shift that everyone needs to integrate into their daily life.

Why do you do any marketing?

We have to be thinking this because we often get caught up in just doing things. Being able to answer this question is crucial to how we shape our business and how we think about marketing. If you don’t truly understand why you are marketing you are going to be unhappy with the results.

People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it.

Simon Sinek

If you really believe in your purpose it is you unique value proposition. People will buy from you if you sell with that purpose. Know your why and tell people about it. You can’t make everyone happy all the time but selling with purpose will ensure you work with the right people.

How do you connect the why with your client’s purpose?

Think about what they want in this moment. What do they want at a bigger scale?

Answering these questions will help you connect with your clients but also fulfill a deeper part of yourself.

This week we’re going to be talking about my new book, Situation Marketing, and the mindsets around it.

There are several mindsets involved, but really it’s about how to market with story and how to find your ideal customer’s stories.
While storytelling is complex, we use a tactic to boil it down, really the key to successful implementation is getting in those mindsets.

What I want you to do is learn how to market, and speak, to a situation; this week’s mindsets will lay the groundwork for you.

If you’d like a draft of the audiobook before anyone else request to join my Situation Marketing Group. It’s a place to put up how you’re using it, how you’re handling those mindsets.

One of the biggest things we have to understand is the stages of relationships. If you put yourself in a situation to market to someone, the stage of the relationship you’re in with that person will determine how you talk to that person; it’s going to matter what you say to them.

Often times we want to say the same thing, over and over, because we’ve gotten used to advertising that bombards us with repetition; but, we must realize that people must come to know, like and trust us. All of those things must happen before someone makes a decision to work with us.

Not only does someone need to know, like and trust us, they have to know, like and trust the process.

A process really begins with what someone wants, progresses to what someone needs and covers their alibis.
The concept behind this is that these are usually three different things. Most of the time we give people what they need, but if they don’t at least know and like us what they need is not what they want; if they don’t know that you’ve given them what they want, they aren’t going to pay attention to what we need.

Let’s talk about individuals.

How you market to a single person will change based on their unique situation.
Today, we’re talking about understanding your ideal customers mindset shifts in order to provide the best value.

If you’ve already downloaded episode 12.5 we apologize, there was an audio issue with this special advanced mindset.
We will expand and update as a new version becomes available.

This week our overall theme is Gary Vaynerchuk.
Marketing is always changing. As marketing changes Mindsets evolve. When you listen to great marketers they always talk about mindset. Listen this week and learn how you can apply the mindsets Gary Vaynerchuk talks about in his new book #AskGaryVee into your own  life. Get to know Gary Vaynerchuk.

Some things work and others don’t. No matter how successful you become you are still going to fail at things. Failure is just a way to figure out what doesn’t work. If something is not going to destroy your business just get it out there and if it fails, learn from it and move on.

Do you have a clear big vision for where you want to be? Many people have this vision and don’t know how to get there. Working in the clouds and in the dirts means having a clear vision and taking steps to get there, and nothing in between. Running a business and changing the world is not for everyone, but if it is what you want you need to have a big vision and know how to get there – The clouds and dirt.

Think about the happiest time in your life, is it right now? If not you need to pickup up Gary’s new book #AskGaryVee. This is one of the most precious mindsets to have, especially when you become successful. Enjoy becoming successful because we don’t know what’s going to happen. If right now is the happiest you don’t have to worry about failure

Stop judging people. When we judge people we are wasting time and mental energy. We look at others and try to figure out why they are successful but there is no way we can know what makes someone successful. You can learn from other businesses but you need to apply what fits into your business.

This week our overall theme is the Jesus Christ Marketing Mindset.

This is not going to be religious, it is a look at movements. Movements happen because of marketing. To start a movement that grows fast and survives over time is truly amazing. Take some time and think about how Christianity has grown and survived through time. What can you apply to your business?

Speaking in parables is one of the most powerful things Jesus did. These are stories that are not necessarily true but they give examples. These parables are used in modern culture and we forget where they came from. Think about what kinds of stories you can tell through your marketing.

We are all guilty of judging others. We need to change our mindset and realize that we are using valuable brain time when we judge others. Pay attention to when you start to judge others and instead try to figure out what they are doing right.
