Started by Matt J McDonald · 2 months ago

It’s amazing how much insight and information can be packed into one line. So I emailed the bloggers I read, and asked them to submit one line about marketing. The following are the responses I received (in the order received with mine last). I encourage you to add your own One Lin ... Continue reading »

  • You've created quite a resource from a wonderfully simple idea. Thanks for the link, Matt. I'm honoured to be invited and included. Keep on keeping it simple and insightful.
  • Matt,

    Love the simplicity, love the succinctness, love the marquee value of your respondents, love the inght - who is this Travis, Young Go Getter, love his one-liner- I'm going to connect with him now.

    Cheers. Sean
  • This is a sweet idea. I hope that you get more lines of wisdom.

  • Editors don't give PR because they generally care about your company but instead because you were one of the few who provided them the foundation for a larger, more interesting story.
  • I ain't no marketer, but here is my contribution. ;)

    Rightly or wrongly, people like their lives to be narrated. Marketing provides that narration and puts products into people's lives.
  • Thanks for including me in this Matt. You've got a great collection there. Congrats on getting some of the big boys on board.
  • Almost forgot, Sean, you're more than welcome to get in touch with me, travis (at) younggogetter (dot) com.

    Thanks for the kind words.
  • Thank you for including me in this post, Matt. You've put together a great list of marketing wisdom! I posted about it at Brandcurve today, so hopefully, more readers will stop by here to learn and add to the list.

  • Fantastic wisdom here! Thanks for introducing me to a few great bloggers I have not yet read.
  • Underpromise, overdeliver: buzz and sales will follow.
  • Love the list - here's my contribution:

    If your new product, new service, new book, new blog post, new whatever can’t make someone respond with “Holy Crap!,” then don’t expect big things out of it.
  • If your market defined it for you, I think it would be short and simple: Move me.
  • I'll go you one better - how about one WORD?

    Here's my candidate: Unique
  • Focus your marketing plan on wooing the customer.
  • My one line:

    Challenge your own assumptions, tune out and put yourself in your customer's shoes.
  • I'd just like to take a minute to thank everyone who added their One Line Marketing Wisdom. This post turned out to be more of a success than I could have imagined, and it's all because of all the great participation. The way things are going, I'm on my way to a follow up post where I'll put all the ones from the comments and maybe some more if I can get them. Thanks again.

  • Effective marketing sets the table where the selling conversation meal is enjoyed!
  • Best marketing makes itself useless.
  • Hello Matt:

    Just stopped by in passing. It's great to see that your list has got bigger and bigger. Well done :). I tip my hat also to you because your idea inspired me to put together the Essence of EQ presentation and series.
  • I have heard it said all in the numbers, which is somewhat true. You will go through alot less numbers and more sales if you are targetting the right group. Search Engine Reviews mentor your people right and their success will be yours
