presentation on business humor
DESCRIPTION
why business use humor in marketin as a technique to attract salesTRANSCRIPT
Why I chose this topic…
• I personally think marketing of a product should be creative and FUNNY equally…
• People are already stressed why showing them stuff, which enhance this feeling of stress even more???
• Yes one must do business seriously but present it in an amusing way
• I was asked to present something I feel funny about; so here we go….
There are some serious real life examples as well.
• A large IBM sales team improved their record 30% when they formed a pick-up orchestra and recorded their sales in fun ways, e.g. by blowing a horn, smashing a gong
• A debt collector sent out a letter reading, “We appreciate your business, but, please, give us a break. Your account is overdue 10 months. That means we’ve carried you longer than your mother did.”
Connections between Humor and Advertising
• They both require brevity.
• They open people’s minds to enable them to have a new viewpoint.
• People get involved in processing the message, and therefore remember it longer.
