What does it mean to know your client? This episode was created after I saw an email encouraging. entrepreneurs to know their customers. Demographics, psychographic, big problem...anything, they said.
There's a better way. Find their story. What brought them here? What have they tried? Those are the questions that will help you write the copy.
If they say, "The other way took too long," you how them that your way is shorter. If they say, "The other provider was rude," you show them why you're polite.
In this episode, we'll talk about... ...the importance of interviews in market research ...the very worst question you can ask in an interview ...the 3 points you need to uncover in your client's backstory ...two mistakes that can make your interview go on longer (or at least SEEM to go on forever) ..why it may not be a good idea to offer a reward (bribe?) for participating
