He also says that in order to create a story that makes people and consumers feel unwell, you need 7 steps in your marketing process:
1- Champion (Consumer)
The consumer or customer must be No. 1 in the company’s thinking or the salesman’s thinking. Focus on the consumer, study his needs and determine them well.
2- A problem facing the hero
In order to make the consumer buy your product or the service you provide, he must know at the beginning that he has a problem and that he lacks this need, because very many people do not know that this need is what they need.
3- At this time, the marketer appears to help the person reach the goal he needs
4- You have a plan as a marketer to reach a goal
In order for him to trust you, you must introduce him to a plan with which he can reach a goal. What is the benefit of this person if he does not help him?
5- Ask him a request
As a marketer, you ask the buyer to buy the product or service that you provide from you, or you ask him for a free sample to try the product, or that he contact you or someone else.
6- Avoids failure
People always take a step when they feel that they will not lose, not when they feel that they will gain, so you must convey to the buyer the idea that the product or service is valuable and that he will not lose when he buys it and pays any amount for it.
7- The person succeeds in the end and achieves his goal
People love to reach their goal and need someone to show them the way. Try to make them feel successful when they buy your product or service.
