  Quotes   “Everyone is talking about the next best camera or thinking that that will solve all these problems. But your customers don’t even know about the next best camera or care…. That doesn’t solve their problems at all. Actually, that’s the greatest way to divebomb your profitability.”  [10:07] -17:46   “In a business matrix, new products and new customers are the most dangerous places to be because you have no data on them. So when we’re talking about customers, old customers with products you’ve made, are the safest place, because you know how long the projects take, you know how much was invested in them, you also know why they came to you, what problems they have, how you solved those problems.” [14:25]   “If you can resonate with how someone is feeling about a problem and talk about that in a way using language in a video or copy that is exactly like how they are thinking, then their brain literally goes ‘Oh my goodness! They’re speaking exactly what I’m thinking. They must have a solution for me.’ When you follow that up with a solution to their problem they go, ‘I have to buy this. Please take my money!” [36:32]     Links   Schedule a call with Mark Get Marks free ebook and questionnaire   Follow Mark on Facebook | Youtube | Linkedin   Building a StoryBrand by Don Miller How to Write Copy That Sells by Ray Edwards   SSP 082: The Truth About How To Build An Effective Brand
