Turns out Direct Response legends have A LOT to say on this topic. And today weâre going to dive into it thanks to Mark Fordeâs (aka âMichael Mastersonâ) [fantastic book âGreat Leadsâ]( (Go [here]( to see the article we did last week all about how Mark generated $1 billion+ in Direct Response Revenue from his "Lead" Framework) ð Key Insight: Understanding Your Customerâs Level of Awareness ð¡What does your customer already know? âEverything your prospect knows before you begin your sales pitch will determine not just what youâll say, but how youâll say it, when you open the conversation between seller and buyer. More specifically, what your reader knows will help you decide which of the following six lead types will work best. Itâs that simple.â - Mark Forde, â[Great Leads](â Hereâs how Eugene Schwartz (one of the 20th centuryâs top marketers & author of the classic [Breakthrough Advertising]() frames this: - ð¦ When to Lead With the PRODUCT: âIf [your prospect] is aware of your product and realizes it can satisfy his desire, your headline starts with your product.â - â¤ï¸ When to Lead With the DESIRE: âIf he is not aware of your product, but only of the desire itself, your headline starts with the desire.â - ð¤Â When to Lead With the PROBLEM: âIf he is not yet aware of what he really seeks, but is concerned only with the general problem, your headline starts with that problem and crystallizes it into a specific need.â Eugene Schwartz elaborated this into a handy framework: [source]( Itâs helpful to look at some top offer-driven businesses and what market awareness stage they entered into: Dollar Shave Club: example ad: [( - Awareness Stage: Problem Aware - People were aware of the high costs of razor blades from major brands. Purple Mattress: example ad: [( - Awareness Stage: Unaware - Most people were not aware that major mattress alternatives with new materials existed. Squatty Potty: Example Ad: [( - Awareness Stage: Unaware - People did not know that improper toilet posture was causing problems. Next Steps⦠Go ahead and look deeper into your market, get data and ask yourself: What does your customer already know? Find the Awareness Stage youâre playing in, adjust your ads accordingly, and watch what it does to your results. Todayâs Newsletter is Supported by [Inceptly](
