How To Drive A Point Home With A Decision Maker

Posted January 11, 2023

Want to drive a point home with a decision maker?

Use context in your messaging!

There are two flavors to this “context” thing;

  1. Reduce To The Ridiculous
  2. Expand To The Extreme

Reduce To The Ridiculous  One way to “reduce to the ridiculous” is to break down the cost to not only the smallest conceivable, you put it in a context by comparing it to an everyday item.

I came across a website where they wanted to drive home the point of how quickly they could generate reports with their solution. Here’s how they worded it;

“Reports are generated in less time than it would take you to watch a rerun of Friends”

Here’s how Qualcomm used context to solidify their value prop;

“Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3: 0-80% battery in less time than it takes to hate yourself for watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians”

The second way you can use context is to;

Expand To The Extreme

Examples:

In a commercial designed to attract drivers, Lyft expanded to the extreme and mentioned that their drivers earned over 250 million dollars last year.

H&R Block “We’ve prepared more than 720 million tax returns”

Let’s say you have a solution that saves clients 30 minutes a day.

You could certainly tell them that or;

You could expand that to the extreme and say that your solution saves your users, on average, 3 weeks per year.

Context helps others understand your difference immediately, and;

In a way that’s memorable!

So the next time you’re looking to REALLY drive a point home and immediately separate yourself from the masses;

Use context in your messaging!
