What you say matters less than how you say it

“Campaigns containing little or no product, but working instead by appealing to emotions or ‘herd instincts’, are twice as effective as conventional ‘message’ advertising. It seems in marketing, like politics, meta-communication is what matters … what you say matters less than how you say it.”

Sarah Carter & Les Binet, ‘How not to plan’

Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it

I’m not in the business of selling houses. I’m in the business of delivering dreams, shaped as houses.
