I was recently interviewed for Your 20-Minute Podcast with host David Brower and he asked me to compare and contrast email marketing v. Facebook marketing. I said the key difference is your email subscribers have agreed to get promotional offers from you. In that sense, it’s “consensual”.
Both parties are in on the dance.
On Facebook, you’re INTERRUPTING whatever else it is they’re there to do. Thus, folks are less likely to be open to it. We’ve all been the subject of unwelcome marketing advances, be they ads invading our social media feeds, spam, or telemarketing.
Being a welcome guest in your prospect’s inbox is another beast altogether. It flips the sales conversation. Puts you in the driver’s seat. When they’re ready to buy, you get fewer objections and a lot less price resistance. At that point, it’s more of a question of “fit”.
Here a few more tasty morsels that dropped in this interview:
