"Activate Buying Frenzies With Your Sale Letters Using 4 Types Of Sales Metaphors"

By Mike Jezek, Direct Mail Copy & Sales Letter Specialist

"$ales letters that create buying frenzies"



Imagine you creating sales letters full of life and persuasion,

and harnessing that persuasion power to create more sales

for your business. Sounds good doesn't it?

Well in this intriguing article you're going to get a briefing

on how to create metaphors that boost your persuasion power

in your sales messages. As you know, a metaphor, in a nutshell,

is simply a word picture. Essentially it helps to

carry your point across in another angle that your audience

may be able to better understand. Following is a brief discussion

of 4 metaphors you can use immediately:



Physical Action Metaphors. -- Use physical words or phrases

to paint word pictures depicting a physical action.



Example: "You don't build any cash value with term insurance."



Or... "You're burning up money every year with term insurance."



Or... "Avoid the sting of the IRS's whip by... "



Other Sales Metaphors. -- This metaphor lowers sales resistance

by reminding prospects that buying your product is just like buying

a product they are already familiar with.



Example: "Buying this software is just like buying a video game

for your son."



Or... "As you place your purchase for this video course,

it's no different than buying a series of exercise videos."



Competition Metaphors. -- This sales metaphor is used to

gently demonstrate your superiority over your competitors.



Example: "They said that about us? Well, I guess everyone wants to

take a shot at the fastest gun in the West.

Everyone wants to challenge the top dog, even if they're only

a little puppy, right?"



Or... "Our software is the Cadillac of accounting software

in this industry, compared to that of our competitors."



Familiarity Metaphors. -- Here's a metaphor to further

build a feeling of security and trust in your prospects.

Simply match experiences or items that your prospects are sure

to be familiar with to your sales presentation.



Example: "Many people first started out with this same software

you've been using, but... "



Or... "I'm sure you're familiar with the Secretary of Defense,

Donald Rumsfeld. Well our accounting firm does his tax work."

"Many of your fellow graduates from Texas A&M are signing up today!"



Of course there are other types of metaphors we can discuss here,

but there's only room for so many in this article.

Using metaphors will immediately put life into your sales materials,

and open up the potential for not only higher response but higher profits.

Try them, you may be blown away by the results!
