• Strategic (policies) – business model goals, persona modeling, scenario narratives, KPIs
• Tactical (procedures) – prioritization, content, copy, media, coding, campaign development
• Operational (execution) – tools, implementation, testing, measurement
“Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.” – Sun Tzu

Persuasive systems
You create the system your visitor must navigate. People don't cause defects, systems do.” - W. Edwards Deming

Empathy represses analytic thought, & vice versa"You want the CEO of a company to be highly analytical in order to run a company efficiently, otherwise it will go out of business…"
- Anthony Jack, an assistant professor of cognitive science at Case Western Reserve and lead author of the new study. "Empathetic and analytic thinking are, at least to some extent, mutually exclusive in the brain.” (2012)

It’s a journey, NOT a destinationConversion rate is a measure of your ability to persuade visitors to take the action you want them to take.
It's a reflection of your effectiveness and customer satisfaction. For you to achieve your goals, visitors must first achieve theirs.
- Bryan Eisenberg, 2001

Will you drown in average?
Each segment that was brought in by an individual marketing effort has different, sometimes intersecting, occasionally opposing scenarios (persuasion paths) based on their needs, motivation, knowledge, and/or purchase preferences.

Measure conversions intelligently
Overall conversion rate: Total number of actions considered conversion divided by total number of visits.
Scenario conversion rate: Total number of visitors starting a specific scenario divided by total number who complete it.
Linear Non-linear
Conversion over time: There are several measures that reveal a site's effectiveness in generating conversions over time.

Empathically-different segments
![Page 24: More Effective Lead Generation Using Persuasive Scenario Planning](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070313/554bb540b4c90594278b482c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Aggregate beats average!The only thing average about most users is that they bail out in droves, happily abandoning businesses that do not speak to them, understand their needs or provide value.
To intentionally design personas for individual variation is not an exercise in audience segmentation; it’s a strategy for selling as face-to-face as you can in a faceless medium.
![Page 25: More Effective Lead Generation Using Persuasive Scenario Planning](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070313/554bb540b4c90594278b482c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Personas are composites
![Page 26: More Effective Lead Generation Using Persuasive Scenario Planning](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070313/554bb540b4c90594278b482c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Achieving their goals and ours Constructing a great narrative:
• Angle of Approach. What causes the persona to realize they have a need/problem/opportunity? How do they describe that need/solution?
• Alternative Options. What options does the persona identify to try to fill that need/problem/opportunity?
• Driving Points. How does the persona learn about the company/product as an option? This can include prior knowledge of the company/product or word of mouth.
![Page 27: More Effective Lead Generation Using Persuasive Scenario Planning](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070313/554bb540b4c90594278b482c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Stage of the Buying Process. Where is the persona in the buying process? What are the obstacles to progress?
• Buying Process/Needs. What questions is the persona asking? What are the personas needs, motivations and objections? What are the competitive comparisons?
• Selling Process/Presentation. How you address the needs, motivations, objections and competitive comparisons? What does the company know that the customer does not know, but needs to? What questions should the persona be asking?
• Conversion Goal. What does the persona want to accomplish? What does the company want to accomplish?

Persuasive? It’s not all or nothing

Add robust narratives to briefs

The value of scenario planning• Improves communications• Everyone gets the big picture
and the details• Improves execution• Explicit communication
instead of implicit instructions• Improves testing• Better variations to test. And
if variations fail look to plan assumptions
• Makes more money • Improved conversions are
worth the investment of time up front
