Written by: Gloria Starr

Article Overview: After a lifetime of being bombarded with ten to thirty-second commercials in which messages are clearly and persuasively conveyed through imagery, we are programmed to make judgments about people and situations in a few fleeting moments. In those few seconds, we decide to buy or not to buy, to hire or not to hire, to trust or not to trust.

Strike a Profile for Profit and Dress to Conquer the World Every Day!

What is influence? Influence is power, and power is how quickly you can move from one position to another. Influence is the process of getting other people to associate their most desired feelings, states or sensations to your product or service.

Our Thirty-Second Culture: Television has had a profound effect on all of us, not only because we spend so much time watching it, but because it has enhanced our abilities to form judgments in all things visual.

After a lifetime of being bombarded with ten to thirty-second commercials in which messages are clearly and persuasively conveyed through imagery, we are programmed to make judgments about people and situations in a few fleeting moments. In those few seconds, we decide to buy or not to buy, to hire or not to hire, to trust or not to trust.

People do things for one of two reasons: to avoid pain or gain pleasure.

Influence happens in a moment!

The components of human influence are:
55% of your impact on someone is based on your appearance, body language, and the way you take up space.

38% is based on how you deliver your message: the tone, volume, pitch and pace of your voice.

7% is on the spoken word.

Re: How should i promote a new website? Re: How should i promote a new website? - ignore this message IF it's already been stated. I haven't had a chance to read all the replies and i have to jet from the office... I suggest marketing where ever your Target Market congregates. If it's a forum of concerned parents - go there. Strike up a deal with the forum owner (JV) and have him promote it to the list of members (Integration Marketing). If you want to go with Forums then i would partner with a parent who is a frequent poster/moderator on a particular Target Market Forum and have him/her add your link to their signature. That was just a thought but it's not as intense once you get buy in from the Forum owner or high ranked poster/moderator. Hope that sparks some new ideas.
