Do you want to reach out to a cold audience? Someone that you've acquired their email or their WhatsApp? You want to get in touch with them, but you don't have a preexisting relationship? Let's talk about social calibration. This is something that is not talked about in marketing nearly enough. And in fact, I don't think it's all that well studied in social sciences anymore either.

And what people hear is going to be defined by their past experiences. Most people to go back to that street corner we were talking about, have been taught that if someone is quite abrupt with you, it's probably not a good thing. They're probably a bit crazy. We want to get out of there. And if someone disarms us, then they're probably okay. They've called out that there's nothing to be worried about. Your adrenal system doesn't need to kick in. You can chill.

Well, the same thing works with email and messages. When we talk about Tuscany, she could reach out to these people and say, hey guys, come to my event. But she'd be missing a really key part that

Successful use of digital marketing leads to ridiculously successful product launches... but it's more than just advertising on Facebook/Google. The key is understanding how to focus your objectives on knowledge, learning about your audience.
