Description

THE SCARY TRUTH: The middle-class consumer population—and their buying power—is massively shrinking. Customers are buying less and in fewer categories.
THE SILVER LINING: It takes no more work to attract customers from the explosively growing Mass-Affluent, Affluent, and Ultra-Affluent populations eager to pay premium prices in return for exceptional expertise, service, and experiences.

In this new edition of No B.S. Marketing to the Affluent, millionaire maker Dan S. Kennedy shows you how to re-position your business, practice, or sales career to attract customers or clients for whom price is NOT a determining factor. Learn how to sell to those who will always be spending as Kennedy shines the spotlight on the practical strategies used by The Ritz-Carlton, Disney, Harrah’s Entertainment, Dove, AARP, Dr. Oz, Starbucks, Williams-Sonoma, DeBeers, the health and wellness industry and many other fascinating and diverse true-life examples. You'll also discover how to:

Use 10 surprising emotional buy triggers the affluent find irresistible
Stop selling products and services and learn how selling aspirations and emotional fulfillment is more profitable
Use Kennedy's Million-Dollar Marketing System. A step-by-step blueprint comparable to those developed for six-figure clients, ready for do-it-yourself use
Apply the magic language of “membership” to any business for the affluent... from pizza shops and medical practices to retail stores and pet hotels

CHAPTER 1

Why You MUST Move-Now

C HARLES B ARSOTTI /T HE N EW Y ORKER C OLLECTION /T HE C ARTOON B ANK . A LL RIGHTS RESERVED .
M ost businesses have historically made them selves for middle-income, middle-class consumers. This began post World War II, with the great rise and expansion of the middle class in America. This was the keeping up with the Joneses majority, so it made perfect sense to tailor advertising, marketing, businesses, products, and services to the move-to-the-suburbs, get-a-house-with-a-white-picket-fence, a new-car-on-view-in-the-driveway crowd. And a crowd it was.
But, in more recent times, while the economic facts of American life went through great changes that hollowed out the middle class, business didn t catch on or catch up to this, essentially continuing to gather around a watering hole that was drying up fast.
Everything about the availability of consumer spending capability was changing much faster and much more dramatically than most businesses acknowledged.
It wasn t a difficult prophecy. In 2007, I first showed, publicly, the new economy pyramid, in the first edition of No B.S. Ruthless Management of People and Profits (now in the second edition). A few years before then, I began describing it to private clients and talking about it in closed-door mastermind meetings and seminars. I forecasted a literal genocide of the American middle class. And I meant: genocide, for I view a lot of it as intentional, deliberate, and orchestrated by political and certain corporate interests. But with or without that, the evolutionary disappearance of the middle class was certain. This was not difficult to foresee. The writing was on the wall, in big letters and numbers, in blood red ink. Many refused and still refuse to see it. There were denialists-in government, in media, on Wall Street. There were the ignorant, eyes wide shut. But I saw everything there was to see and made my dire prediction. Here it is, in the same visual:

This prophecy has come to pass, but it is not yet done. There is a lot more carnage to come. Temporarily, President Trump has introduced new dynamics, pulling the middle class-particularly its blue-collar members-back from the cliff s edge. As of this writing, he has an agree
