Mark Silver's Articles in Marketing

  • Why Attraction is a Mistake in Marketing.
    Coffee shop. The background beat of some silly pop music. Buzz of conversation. The glow of laptop screens. And then, one near the counter, the other in a window seat, they both look up, and their eyes meet. Attraction! Next thing you know, they're picking out paint colors, and sharing chores in some nice little house in the neighborhood. It's a cozy picture, isn't it? If only your clients would move into your business as easily.
  • When networking events feel like a drag
    Going to networking events is kinda one of those things you are 'supposed' to do for your business. Some people love'em, some people hate'em. But, the truth is, especially for a new business, making face-to-face and heart-to-heart contact with people is incredibly powerful. Unfortunately, networking events can seem like pretty gross, low-energy, artificial affairs, with people glad-handing left and right.
  • If you resist marketing, then you can be great
    "I've tried to market myself for years. I've worked with coaches, counselors and healers of all stripes. They all tell me I need to work through my resistance to marketing, and yet I still hate it." My heart was breaking. I was speaking with someone who had the seeds of an amazing business, one that had been limping along for years, never expanding beyond a small handful of dedicated and raving fan clients. Is this you?
  • How your friends destroy your marketing message.
    A lot of blood, sweat, and tears goes into crafting your 'elevator speech' (I hate that term). You've probably agonized over it, striving to catch just the right tone and wording. Finally, you're (hopefully) finished. For the final blessing, you turn to your friends and colleagues, and test it out. They respond: "That's great! I love it. Go for it." They've just killed you with kindness.
  • Why Marketing Often Feels Sleazy (and How to Avoid It)
    "How do you create marketing that can possibly explain spiritual healing in a way that will attract people in?" It's a good question. But...The truth is: you can't. But that's okay, because your marketing language isn't there to attract people in. So forget about trying to attract people with your words. I'll tell you what you will be doing with your words, in just a minute.
