Digital Moneyball Academy: Moneyball Messaging

Welcome to Moneyball Messaging.

 

In the post-COVID Digital Age, it’s simply a different game of selling.  And if the game has changed, that means you need something different.  Yet too many companies might not realize the extent of change that’s already taken place, with more coming down the pike, and they aren’t upping their games to respond. 


Lack of a compelling message is one of the most common missing ingredients today that lead too many marketing and sales efforts to fall flat.   It's a key reason that companies fail to break through with new customers, who have their shields up 24/7 today.  As a result, firms are ineffective building new prospects and new accounts, and even digital efforts fall flat.  More importantly, the firm fails to grow and adapt to other new Digital Age challenges.


The Digital Age is an age of saturation.   Customers today are completely inundated with ads, emails, calls, and salespeople trying to sell.  Without the right message, you can’t stand out from the pack.  You can't grab attention, you won’t get clicks, and you won’t get meetings.   


We’ll show you how to use the “Moneyball Messaging” technique to accelerate your own lead gen and sales prospecting.  The message and techniques are designed to differentiate you in the market and allow you to stand out in today's age of saturation.  It can accelerate and amplify marketing investments, as well as allow your sales to secure customer meetings and compel prospects to take next steps with you.   It's the "secret ingredient" of sorts in our Digital Moneyball playbook.


These techniques are tailored to the unique nuances of B2B industrial business, where too much ineffective and unapplicable B2C techniques have become embedded into the lexicon.   We show you how to get that stuff out and instead use effective techniques suited for Digital Age success.  Lastly, we show business leaders how to use messaging as a catalyst that, when combined with other strategic levers, can jump start front-end transformation.


We've made the first three sessions available at no cost.  The remaining sessions can be accessed only by clients at this time.

Course Objectives

  • Learn the Moneyball Messaging principles and techniques

  • Develop the message orientation and theme using the eight characteristics of a winning message, seeking to identify the flaws in the prospect’s thinking & incongruence in their behaviors.
  • Develop the message’s structure (under 60 seconds) using the “Churchill” and the “Aristotelian” techniques of effective logical and emotional rhetoric.
