18 Human Needs To Exploit That Will Unleash a Flood of Profits For Your Business
I’ve been reading Guerrilla Marketing by Jay Conrad Levinson; a great read for small business owners.
In the book, Jay talks about the different human needs that – once catered to – result in an explosion of sales for your business.
In fact, these are the only reasons why people buy.
They are:
- Achievement
- Ambition
- Comfort
- Convenience
- Conformity (peer pressure)
- Friendship
- Health and well-being
- Independence
- Love
- Power
- Pride of Ownership
- Profit
- Savings or Economy
- Saving Time
- Security
- Self-Improvement
- Social Approval (status)
- Style
Which do you want to appeal to?
Which ones are you appealing to now?
Which of these do you (or your company) stand behind, or want to stand behind?
