036: Lessons Learned-Pre Google + Social Media
Did you know that the average attention span of someone around the age of 50 is about 8.25 seconds?
That's 4.25 seconds less than what it was in the year 2000.FYI - a goldfish has a 9-second attention span - that's .75 seconds longer than ours!
With data like that, no wonder it's becoming more and more difficult to attract your customers and community online.
As we all move further and further away from an analog world and into a hyper-elevated digital world, it's more critical than ever before to craft your messaging in a way that speaks directly to who it is meant for.
And with an average attention span of 8.25 seconds, that first impression - the one someone sees when they land on your website or discover in your social media profiles - is the most critical one.
In this week's episode of The Power Of the Pivot, I lay out the blueprint for crafting your customer roadmap so you can better lead and guide your people to the final destination. Whether that destination is a physical product, a program, a service, or a free offer, it's up to you to tell them exactly where to go. And what can make or break your customer's buying decision are the touchpoints along the way.
