To improve your marketing communications, organize your words with the Magic Formula. It is the fastest, easiest, and most reliable way I know of to get (and hold) the attention of your prospects and customers.
The Magic Formula was first developed by Dale Carnegie – and in three basic steps, it’s everything you need to know to become an incredibly poised, polished, and masterful communicator.
Here’s the formula in its simplest form:
Step 1. Incident – Tell an engaging story that relates to the main point you want to make (i.e., the action you want your readers/listeners to take).
Step 2. Point/Action – Recommend (briefly and clearly) the one specific action you want them to take.
Step 3. Benefit – Explain exactly what benefits they will gain as a result of taking that action.
The formula is a time-tested tool that is guaranteed to dramatically improve the pulling power of all your marketing efforts as soon as you start to utilize it.
