The Number One Marketing Skill?

by Raja Hireker

If you were asked what you believe is your number one marketing and business skill is, how would you answer that?

What automatically springs to mind?

Here are what others have said in answer to the same question:

>>> social media marketing

>>> copywriting

>>> their product

>>> their service

>>> customer relationships

>>> marketing systems

>>> maps and blueprints

>>> communication

>>> irresistible offers

>>> outsourcing

>>> curiosity

Now there's a whole host of other answers in addition to the above.

However, none of them come close to what I've come to find is the NUMBER ONE business and marketing skill.

And that skill is << EMPATHY & COMPASSION >>

Many are surprised when they read the above being a skill, let alone it being the most important.

Now what exactly does empathy and compassion, mean?

Interestingly, different people make it mean, different things.

For me personally, here's what it means;

It means caring deeply to want to know about what it's really like to be your customer or prospect.

Caring deeply about their inner most thoughts, fears, frustrations and desires.

It means caring deeply enough to want to be at ONE with them.

In fact, there's no greater business or personal skill than feeling EXACTLY how your customers and those in your personal relationships, feel.

If you think you have a marketing problem, ask this question --

"What am I missing when it comes to being empathatic, compassionate, at one - with my prospects and customers?"

Ask that one question and you'll have handed yourself the marketing solution (and life solution), above all others.

If you think 'copywriting' is merely about words strung together in a hastily clad sequence, then I think you'll find the following publication to be pretty revealing reading indeed
