Great addition Stu.

I agree 100% on your point that sometimes all we need are the main points.

And I’ll never forget that Kwik Trip incident.

Dayne,

Great analogy. People demand quick and convenient information just like they demand quick tangible goods. While Wal-Mart is like the large elaborate white paper or book, Kwik Trip is like the bullet/main points. In many cases, the bullt/main points are really what people need. The necessities.

Oh, and I think I have ventured at a Kwik Trip near your neck of the woods and had an awesome (sarcastic) time with the pumps there…coincidentally I was also buying a case of beer.

Good stuff, Dayne.

Thanks T. Michael.

I’m going to have to watch that movie now.

It’s great to hear that adding value to clients works just as well in the outfitting business. I had a hunch.

Thanks for commenting. You’re a valuable resource for the other readers here.

Ditto! to what Sarah said Dayne,
You seem to be the “August Rush” of the blogging world!

I am constantly reminding my sales team to reaffirm in the potential clients mind all of our: Features and Benefit’s.
This means that if someone calls about a simple, single day Wild Boar hunt that they can gently push the client towards an upgrade, which holds more of those Features and Benefit’s.

90% of the time that single day hunt inquiry turns into a booked 2 day hunt, usually for a second or third animal as well.

Thanks Sarah. The cookies aren’t too bad.

Really great post Dayne. I don’t know how you can turn everyday adventures into incredibly relevant posts. You are very creative Dayne and an excellent writer. How are Kwik Trip cookies anyway?

Thanks Albert.

I haven’t seen this book before. I like the review this blogger did. I like his comment on the cover design of the book (I agree).

I also like that he points out that “Scott is an advocate of action”.

I agree with that 100%.

This book sounds like it might be worth a read for many bloggers and hunting business owners looking to take their business to the next level by utilizing the Web.

And I think the price is very reasonable.

I don’t know if I’ll get around to reading this book in particular, but it’ll definitely be on my mind.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Dayne,
Interesting analogies, and of course, eminently practical. It really is a matter of finding different approaches that capture the consumer’s eye and draw them to your content.

By any chance have you read this, http://onlinemarketerblog.com/2009/07/book-review-why-small-business-owners-must-read-scott-foxs-e-riches-2-0/
and if so what’s your opinion on it?
