Start by answering the question, “What am I selling?”
You need to first:
- Learn everything you can about your product and/or service.
- What does it do
- How does it function
- What problem does it solve
- Use it (read back issues, take a demo, see how easy it really is, check out the competition).
- Talk to current or past buyers, subscribers, donors and/or members
- Talk with telesales, service, tech-support reps
- Analyze: why and how is this going to help me? What problem is it going to solve?
Project into the mind of the user what the experience will be like with your product!
