🍴Was Inigo Montoya a marketing mastermind?
The Princess Bride is *chef's kiss*
What if the secret to strong messaging was hidden in a classic movie?
If you’ve watched The Princess Bride, you remember this line:
Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
It’s a memorable line, but it begs the question, was Inigo Montoya a marketing genius?
He repeated this message so many times everyone knew it.
You can (and should) do the same with your messaging.
Repetition helps:
Build familiarity with your brand.
People recall your message.
Keep your brand top-of-mind with the consumer.
Here are some tips to create your own Inigo Montoya-style message:
Identify your main message - Inigo’s message was clear, and so should yours. Make sure it offers unique value.
Keep it simple - Your message should be short, direct, and easy to remember.
Make it emotional - Inigo’s message was personal and powerful. How can you use emotion to make yours come to life?
Test it - Writing a strong message is like learning how to sword fight - it takes practice. Test and refine it until it clicks.
What’s yours? Write it today and start repeating it any chance you get!
That’s all for today!
