People Who Give Advice like This Have Very Low Emotional Intelligence

Ademola Abimbola · Read Time: 4 mins ·

In my line of work, I can’t escape giving clients advice. But there is a famous saying that goes something like “the worst vice is advice”. Therefore, I’m very wary about advising because there are so many unknowns. So an article on ‘how people who give advice like this have very low emotional intelligence’ caught my attention and is our title article in our marketing digest for this week.

Let’s get started.

How to Create a Not-awkward Personalisation Strategy

Brands should segment and build content for unique aspects of their audience but avoid leaving out segments of people unless there’s a conscious, strategic decision to do so,

Summary

  • For example, ask for your audience’s interests, questions, or pain points on your email sign-up form.
  • By focusing on a group and not one person, you can avoid the optimisation trap.
  • Explain in simple terms how you’ll use audience data to provide value.

People Who Give Advice like This Have Very Low Emotional Intelligence

It shifts away from the Advice Seeker’s experience and assumes similarities to the Advice Giver’s experience.

Summary

  • If you’re an Advice Seeker, you might even judge the quality of the advice you’re getting by the number of questions the Advice Giver asks.
  • Advice Givers usually want to be helpful, but they also want to be efficient: The Advice Giver is generally an established, busy person.
  • If they assume the Advice Giver has the expertise, they might also easily mistake “Simplest advice” for “Best advice.” The key to unpacking this, as either an Advice Seeker or an Advice Giver, is emotional intelligence.
  • Even though the Advice Giver frames the response in terms of what the Advice Seeker should do, the advice is generic-and rooted in the Advice Giver’s experience, after a very brief reflection.

How and Where to Fight for Your Marketing Budget

Hopefully, you’ve done the prerequisite work to set different goals for prospecting campaigns and closing campaigns, or in calculating how your prospecting campaigns should perform for you to reach your goals.

Summary

  • There’s a lengthy research process, so this might be a time to switch from demos to educational assets or invest more in research campaigns than closing campaigns.
  • In digital marketing terms, that’s often channels and campaigns like Brand Search and Remarketing.
  • If you know that on average it’s 30 days or more from first ad impression to buy, things could look quite a bit different at that time than they do right now.
  • If you’ve previously mapped the customer journey or created personas, revisit them and plan for changes to who might be involved in purchase decisions, or what might change in their discovery process.

1000 Ranking Factors: How Google Finds Signals Through the Noise
