Messaging Quotes

“If your first reaction is to feel insulted & belittled by constructive criticism or the word no... you may not have the best foundation in place for starting or maintaining your own business. Constructive criticism can help more than you might realize... if you can put your ego aside and take the help from those that have the authority and knowledge to assist you.”

“So much depends, of course, on what the individual hears when he gives himself over to the electronic tides breaking on the shore of his Seashell. The voice of conscience and reason? An echo of morality? A new thought? A fresh idea? A morsel of philosophy? Or bias, hatred, fear, prejudice, nightmare, lies, half-truths, and suspicions? Or, perhaps even worse, the sound of one emptiness striking hollowly against yet another and another emptiness, broken at two-minute intervals by a jolly commercial, preferably in rhymed quatrains or couplets?”

“When everyone is on the same page, has a clear understanding of expectations and responsibilities, the best coaching outcomes can occur. Consider stepping away from the big promises, guarantees and claims if they are not backed up on paper and stepping toward those that can highlight and prove themselves ethically, professionally and authentically.”

“Even though you are not required to, consider holding yourself accountable for what you say online and on social media. More and more, it feels like social media has isolated people from the accountability of their words and claims. It seems as though lying, cheating and stealing are practically encouraged with the use of AI and cheap marketing tactics that focus on showing people how to appear as experts over highlighting genuine authority and expertise. So many make any claim they want, say anything they want and push false hype in order to present their subjective opinions as objective truth. (To me, this is lying.) I still believe Messaging and Marketing can be done morally, ethically and transparently. But in the end it is your choice.”

“Now, communicating is a system. A single message might move across six different formats before it sticks. One piece of content might be in written form. Another might happen in a panel discussion. That discussion might be cut into short-form videos and posted on a variety of channels. At my company, we have found that communication works best when you think through it as a system of sticky moments that are designed with intention.”

“Focus on your messaging before you focus on your marketing. The skip to marketing when the messaging is not in place makes for more expensive marketing costs, confusion with the public and their perceptions as well as a lack of continuity and endurance growth. There are hundreds of ways to tell a story and thousands of ways to tell different parts of a story. Still, be sure you have your story and the foundation of its messaging solid, situated and clear before bringing it to a public that has a very short attention span and tends to read only headlines. Many will need to see you telling your story and different parts of it a number of times before they click through, read on, connect or buy from you.”
