The Importance of Selling Creativity
Being creative or an original thinker is not enough if one cannot effectively sell the creations. It is crucial to educate customers about the value of innovative products, rather than just relying on cleverness or humor in marketing. Information presented to potential buyers should be insightful and useful, enabling them to make informed purchasing decisions. As attention spans shorten, marketers must strike a balance between being engaging and providing clear, valuable information about their offerings.
