How
to Break Free of Our Limiting
Myths and Illusions.
Summary: Our
business and professional lives are limited
by the myths, illusions, habits and assumptions
we make. In this amusing and enlightening
program, George gently shakes up our
complacency through a series of magical
illusions (George is regarded as one
of the leading 150 close-up magicians
in the world. He regularly conducts workshops
for magicians). Then, he questions some
of our most compelling marketing assumptions,
such as the ideas that salespeople and
advertising actually sell products, that
we have to make noise to get through
the clutter, that customers are buying
your product, that the marketplace is
the same as it was five years ago. Most
importantly, after opening people's minds,
he suggests powerful new ways of approaching
marketing in general and life itself,
that take the audience beyond conventional
thinking to reach new heights. This program
will both shake up and inspire your audiences
to approach marketing with fresh perspectives.
No one will ever approach marketing in
the same old traditional way again. Custom
tailored to your audience via focus groups,
interviews and/or email questionnaires.
Whoosh-ology:
How To Use Decision
Acceleration As The Secret Weapon To
Dominate Your Market.
Summary: The
business schools
and everyone else have missed this
principle: the best way to dominate a market
is to speed up your customers' decisions.
Make your products easier to learn about,
easier to try, buy, use, fix, etc. and
you will accumulate customers faster than
your competition. Only a handful of companies
understand this, and they are among the
most successful in the world (Microsoft,
AOL, P&G, FedEx, Palm, Yahoo!). Other
companies keep coming up with "better"
products and don't understand why these
companies keep thriving. In this session,
George breaks through the myths and illusions
of conventional marketing and shows you
how to increase the efficiency of your
marketing while lowering your budget. Offered
as a company workshop, one-day or keynote.

George Silverman,
is the author ofThe
Secrets of Word-of-Mouth Marketing: How
to Trigger Exponential Sales Through Runaway
Word of Mouth (AMACOM). He
is a recovered and reformed psychologist.
His primary interest is in word-of-mouth
marketing, decision-making and persuasion.
He is the inventor of the telephone focus
group, co-inventor of the peer word of
mouth group -- widely acknowledged to be
the most powerful marketing method ever
developed in the pharmaceutical, agricultural
and medical device industries. He has successfully
used word of mouth techniques to accelerate
purchase decisions for some of the most
successful products ever introduced, including
the VCR, the automatic teller machine,
the Trac II razor, the NordicTrack and
many of the most successful pharmaceutical
launches in history. He is a past Treasurer
and Board member of the Qualitative Research
Consultants Association (QRCA), and has
been Chairman of its Professionalism Committee.
George is also a close-up illusionist. He
is the Workshop and Lecture Chairman of the
Parent Assembly of the Society of American
Magicians and a member of the Academy of
Magical Arts (The Magic Castle) in L.A. He
is one of the leading close-up magicians
who convene yearly from around the world
at the FFFF convention. It is the most exclusive,
invitational only, highly prestigious close-up
magic conclave. He uses illusions in his
speeches, seminars and workshops to create
a sense of open-minded wonder, to illustrate
many of the illusions of marketing, and to
instill a willingness to consider breakthrough
possibilities.
About the parallels of marketing and magic
he says, "I just like to remind people that things
are not always as they seem, there's more
than meets the eye, that you have to examine
conventional wisdom because much of it is
just very realistic-looking illusion, and
most of all to remind people that they can
do the impossible."
