Your Opinion Matters!
What do you think about women, marketing, business and the changes taking place
By : Sandi Krakowski
This is a very different issue of our newsletter….. because I'm not here to teach, train or instruct. I'm here to listen, to YOU!
That's right…. kind of odd, unfortunately… many bloggers and writers don't take enough time to listen to their readers. And they wonder why they lose loyal clients and fans.
My best selling book, "Read Their Mind: How to hear what the marketplace wants & build a huge business" taught some tactical and strategical things you can do in your business every single week to make sure you are on task and really in touch with your clients.
The way the world was designed revolves around one big thing- relationship.
As a matter of fact in Dallas, TX on March 31 and April 1st I'll be teaching on how all areas of our existence, Spiritual, Physical and Sociological were designed to operate with good connection and relationships! Could this be why social media took off like wildfire when it did? Could it be why so many Direct Response Marketing companies shut their doors, sold out, or worse yet, gave their big company to a hand of investors? Is it possible because someone forgot to really care about their clients? We shall see…. I'll be talking about that topic in Dallas, TX!
There's another topic that is burning inside of my heart and I want to HEAR from you on this. It's the topic of women in business, marketing and the online world.
You see, I'm seeing some drastic changes taking place in the direct response marketing world but I don't see very many companies or CEO's asking any questions! What on earth is this about?
When we market to women, we need to know the mind of a woman. We must "Read Their Mind"…. no question…. but my thoughts are towards what I see going on in the marketplace… and NO ONE took the time to ask!
No one said, "Hey should we turn our 2500 attendee event into an woman's only event because you obviously do business differently so it's now time to teach you how to market as a woman?"
No one bothered to ask, "Hey do mind if we don't include you in our direct response marketing materials unless of course we want to show some leg?"
OR WORSE… no one asked, "Does it bother you that very few women are featured in direct response marketing unless they are an assistant, marketing manager or a hood ornament?"
Oh my my my…. I'm opening a can of worms!
Well today, I'm asking you some of the hard pressed questions that need to be asked!
Your opinions matter to me! And they matter to those that I serve…. because I'm SURE they'll be reading what you post.
So here's what I want to give YOU a chance to do today. Will you please take just a few moments and pour your own heart out, with your opinions, ideas and suggestions on this topic of women and marketing? I'd be so grateful!
Here are some questions that I want your honest opinions & thoughts. No trying to convince someone else here if you disagree, just tell me what you feel & believe about this topic.
No answer is wrong!
Women In Business, Direct Response Marketing And The Internet World
#1- Do you think women should be taught how to be good copywriters and direct response marketers in a different way than men?
#2- Do you believe it's hard for women to learn from all men so we need more women teaching?
#3- Do you believe it doesn't matter, that direct response marketing & copywriting & internet marketing is not gender specific & we don't need to segregate women and men?
#4- Do you feel women's needs in business are very different & unique & women need separate seminars, conferences & trainings so they can feel more open to learn?
#5- Do you think this segregation of women in business is far more damaging than good & it's compartmentalizing people rather than helping them grow to be successful?
#6- CLOSING COMMENTS- anything else you want to say.
ALL opinions & comments welcome. I want your opinions & heart felt feelings, NOT something you've learned from someone else.
Please post your answers below in the comment section below. I promise to read and respond to anything you write or need clarification on. Answer just one or a few or all of the questions. Your choice! OPEN FORUM! BTW….. if you posted your comment yesterday on Facebook, feel free to post it again below and put a link back to your home page so our clients can find you! 🙂
Thank you again so much!
