A person's own first and last name are the most powerful words in marketing. Using someone's name in headlines, emails, and ads dramatically increases engagement and response rates, a principle Dale Carnegie documented decades ago.

I want to give you some very practical strategies now that you know that story, that you can start using your business today. The first one is by leveraging two of the most magnetic words in the English language. In fact, it's the two most magnetic words, probably in any language. These words are so powerful that they suck in people's attention. In fact, you. You were motivated to take action today by these words. And if these words were put on tables, you'd probably move over and look at them. If they're in today's newspaper, I guarantee you're buying a copy of it. Does anyone have an idea what these words are? Just shout something out. Free money. Free. Free. Free money. That's a Vernon one. What else? Free. So pre day. Yep. I heard someone say sex. Yep. All right. Yeah. So free sex. Very motivating. I get it. Yes. Yeah, they said you guys are kind of wacky. So. Yeah. So, yes, free sex is one of the options, but it's not the one I was thinking of. In fact, the most motivating, magnetic words in the English language are our own names, our first name and our last name. Dale Carnegie wrote a whole book about this, how to win friends and influence people. These names are. These words are so powerful. As I said, if they were in today's newspaper, you would buy the paper. I'm in it. Show all your friends, look what they wrote about me. It's my birthday. You would buy every single copy of the newspaper that the whole town has. If you're indicted of a crime, you'd want no one to see the paper. Our words are magnetic. The tags you have on you, you were compelled to pick up your own tags. Of course they motivated us. Words are powerful. But the names, when we use our customers names, it's the most influential, the most magnetic.
