4)celebrities like J.Lo have the time and money to hire a personal trainer and work out for hours everyday,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
Russel Harris in The Happiness Trap says we do this because, as early humans (I think he means when we were cave dwellers), belonging to a group was essential for our survival. He writes:
Why?
“If your clan boots you out, it won’t be long before the wolves find you. So how does the mind protect you from rejection by the group? By comparing you with other members of the clan: Am I fitting in? Am I doing the right thing? Am I contributing enough? Am I as good as the others? Am I doing anything that might make me seem strange?”
I still couldn’t help but compare my post pregnancy muffin top to her sexy bronzed belly…

2)celebrities like J.Lo have access to the best bodies money can buy (i.e. plastic surgery);
The fact that celebrity gossip magazines are taking up space in my Everybody has helped me realize that I have some work to do. Task number one: Take a close look at who I’m letting into my Everybody and ask myself if their ascribed views and opinions serve me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Task number two: Put together a new Everybody made up of members that reinforce a more positive image of myself,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Martha Beck, in Finding Your Own North Star points out that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as social creatures, we take the ascribed thoughts and opinions of a handful of people and combine them with the ascribed thoughts and opinions of various social groups (e.g. our family, peers, the media, etc.) and create what psychologists call “the generalized other” or what Martha calls “The Everybody.” Our brain does this as a quick and dirty way to access what we consider the thoughts and opinions of The Entire Known Universe.
While I’m smart enough to know that:
(My new Everybody helped me realize that.)
By the way, as a mother of twins, I think I look pretty damned good! If I look this good after 17 months, just think how good I’m going to look in another year!
The other day I was checking out at the grocery store when I happened across a photo of the lovely Jennifer Lopez looking even more lovely on the beach in a tiny red bikini. The headline read, “How J.Lo Got Her Body Back.” J.Lo, you see, is also the mother of boy and girl twins born roughly a week apart from mine. As I admired her perfectly taunt abdominals, I couldn’t help but think of my own midsection. My belly was barely keeping it together underneath a pair of too-tight-but-used-to-fit jeans and a baggy shirt.

3)celebrities like J.Lo often have people who cook them healthy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], low cal meals; and
Even though my rational mind realizes it to be completely irrational to compare my belly to J.Lo’s,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I still do it because the media,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and celebrity gossip magazines in particular, occupy a key spot in my very own version of The Everybody. As a mother of twins on the cover of a magazine,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], she is, to my mind,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the very picture of what a mother of boy and girl twins SHOULD look like after 17 months.
1)most photos of celebrities are doctored,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych];
P.S. I’m teaching the tools and techniques I learned from Martha Beck’s The Four Day Win and Brook Castillo’s If I’m So Smart, Why Can’t I Lose Weight?

The Bank Supervisory Board (BSB) announced Monday that it has requested that prosecutors conduct an investigation of a total of 77 high-ranking officials of 5 now-defunct banks to follow up allegations that many bad loans racked up by the banks had been extended illegally. The combined total of non-performing loans for the banks amounted to W2.581 trillion. The BSB said that the former directors of Donghwa,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Dongnam,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Daedong,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Kyonggi and Chungchong banks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which have since been absorbed by other institutions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], will be investigated. It is suspected that several banking executives approved loans either for their own gain or due to pressure from politicians and shareholders of the banks. The de facto loss to the banks stemming from loans reached up to W1.77 trillion. The investigation will include bank presidents,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], both past and in charge at the time the government had ordered the banks to be absorbed.

If you find you have been wasting money,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the chances are, it has been wasted on things you don't need. So from now on,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], don't buy anything you don't need.
Discount vouchers are a great way to save money on the products you would normally have to pay full price for,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Once one week is over, go back through your spending for the week and highlight where you have wasted your money (for example, have you spent money on a take away you could have done without?). Now add up all the money you have wasted and just think what you could have done with that money - like invest it into a savings account, for example.
By doing this, you will be able to work out how much money you are spending every day and should be able to track your spending more effectively.

If your answer to these questions is genuinely 'yes',[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you have nothing to worry about. But if you hesitate about it or say 'no',[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], simply put it back and save your money.
For many people,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], keeping on top of their finances in today's day and age has become particularly difficult.

Only buy what you need
Just ask yourself before you spend your money - 'could I do without this item?' or 'do I actually need this item?',[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Keep track of everything you spend
No matter what you spend,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], keep track of it. Create your own spending diary and make sure it is always up to date. Split your spending into individual days (one page for Monday, one page for Tuesday… and so on).
However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], if you do find yourself in debt, you should seek debt advice as soon as possible. The sooner you seek debt advice,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the more options you may have available to clear your debts.
Seek debt advice
Even if you aren't in debt, it doesn't mean you can't seek debt advice. You could simply ask a debt adviser for a bit of advice on how to handle your finances more effectively.
Use discount vouchers
However, it needn't be hard. And if you follow these simple steps, you should be able to reduce the risk of falling into debt.
Ever seen discount vouchers printed in the local paper or online? If you have,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cut them out/print them off and use them to save money - but only on products you need to buy!

Quality Test — I can request that a contractor demonstrate his or her ability in a variety of subjects and tasks. Do not hesitate to ask for examples of previous work and/or send them a small test to complete to validate their skills.
Download my free Delegating and Outsourcing workbook. This workbook will help you clarify your project scope and goals which will make communicating with contractors easier and more efficient,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. I have also included a Contractor Comparison worksheet to help strategically select the right vendor for your project or task,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Enhanced by Zemanta
I've written before on outsourcing and delegation,and I encouraged business owners to define their Unique Ability and hire others to do the rest.
While money is a factor, I highly encourage you to not select a bid on price alone when selecting a contractor.
A powerful tool for finding a contractor is an online outsource platform called www,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].Elance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].com. Elance is essentially a virtual marketplace that allows you to post projects and tasks for completion by contractors in a wide variety of skill areas.
* Past reviews — this is like getting references from other professionals
* Reputation — review their feedback scores
* Amount of experience — review their validated skills
* Profile pages — look for projects that are similar to your own and review the project work they completed.
Bidder ratings — Elance allows me to give each person who bids on my project/task a rating from one to five stars. I simply review the bidder’s information and then give him a rating,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. I then sort to have only the highest rated ones available,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Here is a list of things you can look for on Elance to help you rate a bidder:
* Does the bid meet the requested requirements,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
* Has the contractor communicated effectively their understanding of the experience level, skill set and project timeline ?
Private Message Boards —Elance allows contractors to message job posters privately. I review these messages to see if they meet the original post criteria,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], if they demonstrate an understanding of what I want to accomplish, and if their communication is clear. This exercise should clear out the boilerplate messages and the unqualified bids, allowing you to concentrate on the valid ones.
Project bids — once you have posted a project on Elance, contractors will begin to bid on the work. (I will typically leave a bid on Elance for four days maximum to make sure I get a good pool of bidders for my proposal.) Assess the quality of each bid by asking yourself:
I have had great success outsourcing to Elance. They are not the only contractor-for-hire group online, but their interface, bidding process,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], communication, and billing systems work the best for me. Let me share with you some of the features of Elance that I enjoy.
Using my shortlist, I interview the bidders through the private message board. When interviewing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], do not be shy about asking pointed and challenging questions. Interview them as though you were hiring them as a full-time employee. Now is a good opportunity to reinforce exactly what you need. I select contractors based on the quality of the responses and their understanding of what I need to accomplish.

The terms used among SEO professionals are usually enough to push most people away from managing their own SEO. This creates a problem where sites pay a great deal of money to have 'SEO Professionals' come in to optimize their site – but there is no one way to hold these 'professionals' accountable for their work. This problem created the need for online applications that automatically do the work of SEO professionals, and display statistics related to the sites progress. This way users can see the effectiveness of the work being done.
Many SEO professionals will try to trick the robots. Methods used by SEO professionals are done to give a short-term increase in traffic so that websites have to continue using the expensive SEO professional to maintain their traffic. Google is constantly finding ways SEO professionals take advantage of the system,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and block their methods. The SEO professionals just keep coming up with new tricks. This behavior not only hurts the relationship between the site and search engine but can ultimately lead to a website being banned from the search engine entirely. Be careful who you trust with your SEO...we recommend that people stay away from downloads in general – but to also find a good online SEO suite instead of using expensive SEO professionals.
The whole process is fairly easy to understand when the details are removed. Search engines have little robots that go to every website. These robots are given rules by the search engines,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and told what to like. The robots then report back to the search engine and say “I like this site,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I give it a 4 out of 10”. Then the search engine displays that site in the 4th slot when people search a topic that is covered by the site. While very general,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this is 90% of what is going on with SEO. The problem comes into play with convincing the robots to like you.
Search engine optimization is the process of tweaking a website to appear in the top listing of any search engine. Search engines were introduced to enable people to find organized information from the net using specific keywords. SEO is carried out by almost all websites who appear at the top of search engine listings. SEO can be carried out using software, online applications, and custom professional services.
Author's Bio:
Search engines such as Google typically have recommendations for sites to be configured to increase their search-ability. Essentially, SEO is developing a relationship between the informational site and the search engine it wishes to appear on. There is a great deal of free information on the web regarding SEO,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but understanding and using it is often a difficult task. Coupled with the fast-pace at which relevant SEO information changes – it is very difficult for individuals or hobbyists to be successful with SEO.

When SEO first became popularized,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the only tools available were downloaded applications and SEO professionals. There were many problems with these two methods – software often contained viruses or were too general,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and professionals were expensive. This led to the development of rich internet applications that were inexpensive, customized to the user,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], virus free,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and have the ability to track results easily. These rich internet applications allow the user to use the same tools as SEO professionals without having to fully understand the vast technicality of SEO.

U.S. Army Spc Thomas Wilson,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], left,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], speaks to U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not pictured, at Camp Buehring,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], north of Kuwait City
Bush administration officials continue to react to a complaint from an American soldier headed for Iraq that U.S. forces deployed for battle there are not getting the vehicle armor they need to protect themselves from attacks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. The issue came up during a visit to the troops in Kuwait by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld Wednesday and continues to reverberate around Washington.
A U,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].S. military commander in Kuwait says soldiers headed for Iraq still do not have all the armor they need to protect their vehicles from explosives and mortar shells being fired at them by Iraqi insurgents on a daily basis,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
A day after Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was questioned about the shortages by a soldier who will soon be deployed to Iraq, Army Lieutenant General Steve Whitcomb told reporters about 2,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000 more fully armored Humvees are still needed. "Our goal and what we're working towards is that no wheeled vehicle that leaves Kuwait going into Iraq is driven by a solder that does not have some level of armored protection on it," he said.
The Kuwait-based general took questions from reporters at the Pentagon following Wednesday's pointed exchange between Secretary Rumsfeld and Specialist Thomas Wilson,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], one of several thousand soldiers headed for battle. "Why do we soldiers have to dig through local landfills for pieces of scrap metal and compromised ballistic glass to up-arm our vehicles and why don't we have those resources readily available to us?"
The question drew cheers and applause from fellow soldiers and criticism, including from lawmakers on Capitol Hill, over the way Secretary Rumsfeld responded. "It's a matter of production and capability of doing it. As you know,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you go to war with the army you have,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time," he said.
Secretary Rumsfeld said he expects the army to do its best to provide the badly needed armor to protect against the insurgency, the strength of which he admits was underestimated.
At the White House President Bush told reporters the concerns of soldiers heading into battle are being addressed. "We expect our troops to have the best possible equipment. And if I were a soldier overseas wanting to defend my country, I would want to ask the Secretary of Defense the same question," he said.
But critics of the Bush administration's handling of the Iraq war see the shortage of armored vehicles as an indication that the Pentagon failed to plan adequately for the aftermath of the fall of Saddam Hussein,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].

1. Teach employees the following communication and problem-solving skills:
7,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Double bind: Some work teams have an atmosphere in which employees feel "damned if you do and damned if you don't."
Stating opinions and expectations overtly vs. covertly Demonstrating listening skills Asking for clarification when needed Speaking assertively Showing respect for others
1. Families have distinct ways of communicating and degrees of togetherness. For example:
4. Where a work team shows signs of being disengaged,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], help employees build stronger relationships and communication patterns. Use team-building techniques to accomplish this.

See all Articles by Garrett CoanSee Garrett Coan',[link widoczny dla zalogowanych];s Expert PageGet Updates on AnxietyGet Updates on Garrett Coan Average: 3 Your rating: None Average: 3 (1 vote) Tweet
Signs of Dysfunction
2. There are unwritten rules which family members or employees must follow in order to survive and thrive in the system. For example, in an organization, the rules might be:
6. Emotional or physical abuse: In some organizations,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], employees are routinely subjected to emotional or even physical abuse. These are obviously examples of severe dysfunction, just as they are when they occur in a family.
For example: There have recently been several reports of physical and emotional abuse in the military,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Like a family, a company is a group of people who have an ongoing relationship with one another. Companies have several things in common with families:
5. Underachieving: Employees who feel unappreciated or abused may respond by producing substandard results at work, just as such family members do at home.
For example: Most stores today have sales associates who act as if the customer is an interruption. These employees appear to have no interest in the success of the company.
How to define problems in a nonblaming way How to listen with empathy How to make requests assertively How to brainstorm solutions
3. Triangulation is the process where two people side against a third. Teach employees to manage conflict by teaching them how to avoid triangulation.
Never call the boss by her first name. Always be at your desk by 8:00 A.M. Never eat lunch with a person of lower status. Don't place any personal items on your desk or credenza.
3. Substance abuse: Employees feeling excessive stress at work may respond as they would in a family, by abusing substances at work or after hours.
Strategies for Resolving Problems
2. Help employees identify themes and company (family) myths. Explore those that may be discussed and challenged,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as well as those that may not.
We learn to relate to people first in our families of origin.
We learn to trust, communicate, listen, cooperate, and share before we reach our tenth birthday. When we join a company, we bring those abilities with us. And every work team in every company becomes a place where family dynamics play themselves out, for better or worse.
2. Sabotage: When employees feel unable to express their feelings and opinions, they sometimes resort to acting them out by violating rules, sabotaging the company, or by displaying other passive-aggressive behaviors.
For example: In a large company, an employee recently shared a confidential, sensitive memo with a friend who worked for a competitor. The memo became front-page headlines.
4. Demonstrating the ability to trust others
When employees do not trust one another,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], team functioning is threatened. Empowerment and motivation are maximized when people trust each other.
2. The ability to recognize and respond to appropriate vs. inappropriate boundaries
For example: Some companies expect employees to demonstrate extreme loyalty and openness to those within the company. This atmosphere may feel comfortable to someone from a family with similar boundaries, but inappropriate to another person.
How can you tell if a work group (or a family) is not healthy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Here are some signs of dysfunction:
The goal of such interventions is to energize employees by teaching them new ways to relate to one another.
6. Teach supervisors how to manage employees more effectively through regular supervisory skills training. Just as parents benefit from parenting skills training, supervisors need similar instruction. Supervisory training should address the following skills:
Four Dynamics That We Bring to Work from Home
4. Overachieving: Companies with very high expectations may create employees who routinely produce miracles. This may look admirable to an outsider, but it can produce burnout among the employees. This dynamic resembles the family that looks perfect from the outside,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but is in fact severely dysfunctional.
3. Unresolved issues from the past have an effect on current functioning and communication patterns.
1. Attendance: Excessive absenteeism and high turnover correlate to family members responding to dysfunction by becoming emotionally distant and running away,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
How Companies Are Like Families
Using effective communication skills requires strong self-esteem. This may be impossible for a person from a family where such communication was never modeled. A person who learned covert, aggressive, disrespectful communication patterns would not be successful in a work group where the preceding, effective behavior is expected.
Author's Bio:
1. A preference for independence and autonomy vs. dependence and control
For example: Some people are most comfortable in a closely supervised work situation and prefer to have everything clearly spelled out. Others find such an atmosphere suffocating and seek an environment where they are left to their own devices.
3. The ability to communicate with others effectively. This includes:
5. Where the system is enmeshed, help the employees strengthen boundaries and increase autonomy. Team-building exercises can be helpful here,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too.
Every member of every work team brings the following kinds of dynamics from home:
For example: After an emotional event such as a major strike, employees need time to process their feelings. Family therapy following a disruptive event like this would heal such wounds much more quickly.
How to demonstrate effective listening skills How to encourage open communication among team members How to empower team members by setting effective goals How to encourage creativity and initiative How to resolve conflict in a healthy and productive manner
Communication may be overt or covert. Relationships tend to be enmeshed (too close; overly involved) or disengaged (not at all close; uninvolved). Boundaries may be described as diffuse (extreme togetherness), rigid (extreme separateness), or clear (ideal and appropriate).
Following an assessment, the following family therapy interventions may help the employees of a dysfunctional company relate with one another in a healthier and more productive way.

Plan Your Day. While a great point can be made for doing this in the evening for the next day, starting each day with a clear picture of what you want and need to accomplish is important. This short time will help you keep the important items on your mind and help you from falling completely into reactive mode all day long.
However you came to read these words, I`m confident you are interested in greater productivity, achievement and success. Perhaps you want that for yourself, or perhaps you want that because you lead others and you owe it to both yourself and them. Either way, this article will help you when you take action on what follows.
Review Your Goals. If you have goals (if you don’t,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], make that the first new habit —to write them), reviewing them daily is powerful. Look over your daily,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], weekly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], short and long term goals. Review your bucket list ,or lifetime, goals. This can be a simple reading of the list and then allowing yourself time to soak them into your subconscious. While or after you read them, think about why these goals are important to you, too.
Pick one, two at the most. You may like all of these ideas. That’s fine, but you have to pick. Perhaps you will try two each day (some can be done in less than 30 minutes),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or perhaps you will do one during the week and another on the weekends.
Journal. This one truly is a combination habit; it can be coupled with almost any other one on this list (yes, you can even journal about your exercise, keeping track of what you did each day, for example). When you write your thoughts you make them clearer. When you write you become more focused, learn more, and improve your results.
Write Notes. Get out your pen and paper and write notes to people. It could be a thank you note to a client, colleague, or team member. It could be sharing a resource, article, or idea. It could be a letter to a family member. It could be appreciation or a note to let people know they are remarkable. All day, you will be on your computer. This habit is about personal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], intentional, and handwritten communication and connection.
And start today (or tomorrow morning, at the latest).
The Ten Habits
Read powerful material. This could be spiritual or uplifting, it could be edifying to a goal or objective. I don’t mean the newspaper,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], your blog reader feed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or a celebrity magazine. Read intentionally, to put powerful and valuable ideas into your head at the start of your day.
Think! Closely related to meditating or praying this is quieting your mind to specifically work on a challenge, a problem, or decision. This one might also be less of a singular habit, but one that is done in tandem with many of the others on this list.
Final Thoughts
My intention with this list is to give you a list of things that you could do in 30 minutes or less each day. Trying to find 30 minutes in an already – packed-like-sardines-in-a-can day might seem daunting. That is one reason why I suggest creating a new morning habit.

There is likely nothing on this list you haven`t heard before. That doesn`t make the list less valuable. In fact,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it proves these ideas work if you use them!
You can`t do them all. I`ll say more on that at the end of the list,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but don`t read thinking "I can`t do all of these," because that would be missing the point of doing something.
Ok, now, on with the list!
Reflect on Yesterday. One of the best ways to improve and get better is to make sure you are learning from your experiences. Making time to consciously ask yourself what you have learned, what you want to repeat, and what you want to change is a powerful productivity habit.
Do you want to get more done, reach more of your goals, and make a bigger difference?
If so, the morning is when that can all begin!
Making a decision to change your morning routine and getting up 30 minutes earlier than usual is the first part of this habit. I am a morning person,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and you may not think you are, and that’s ok. I’m not suggesting when you get up; just that you get up 30 minutes earlier than you have in the past!
Exercise. Exercise is good for your health and it releases powerful chemistry in your body for greater energy and productivity as well. If you are a lunchtime or after work exerciser, that is fine; just pick a different habit on this list!
Work on a Goal. What if you invested 30 minutes each day to progress you towards one of your goals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Do you think you would achieve more of your goals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Duh.
Meditate or Pray. Quiet your mind. Follow a process that you already know, or learn one. Especially if you are moving quickly past this one to find “something better,” for you this might be the most valuable one of all.
Making the Time
The list is in no particular order. My point isn’t to prescribe one, rather to present them all. Any one of these actions, made into habit, can change your life for the better (and perhaps much sooner than you think).
None of these would have to be done in the morning though, from Ben Franklin to the present day, it has been proven that getting up earlier is a great way to accelerate your success (and “find” intentional time to do important things for you).
Before We Start
Find what works best for you.
Before I share the ten ideas, a couple of caveats.

Can You Describe Your Customer in Detail?
Psychographics. Pepsi targets an audience of “young thinkers.” That psychograph – that overarching mindset that leads to a target market’s perceptions and behaviors – is what has helped Pepsi differentiate itself and battle rival Coke in key markets.
Demographics. Former CBS president Howard Stringer once said, “We’re chasing our tails for 18- to 49-year-old idiots when 10,000 people are turning 50 every day.” The point is that your demographic changes periodically, and you should stay on top of those changes.
Author's Bio:
The truth is: Too many businesses think of their target market as one large,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pulsing mass. But your target market is actually made up of individuals just like you, your wife,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], your husband, your mother, your father, or your children. Your customers are people with hopes, dreams, frustrations, families to feed, bills to pay, and vacations to plan. The most successful brands recognize this and look at their target market as a “Target of One.” So,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], how well do you know your target market … your Target of One?
So, how well do you know your customer? Knowing your target market as well as you know yourself is fundamental to branding success. You’ve heard over and over the importance of building a relationship with your customers, and the best way you can do that is to think of them as individuals just like yourself. That’s how you develop a loyal customer for life.
Current Usage. If you don’t know which substitutes for your product your target market is using now – and how often – you don’t know what you’re up against. How often does your target switch between brands? Is their brand usage light or heavy? What brands are getting their attention, and which ones are keeping it?
Attitudes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. What is your target market’s ‘attitude’ toward the category or industry you are in? Is their purchase decision a highly involved one or are your products the type customers don’t think about twice,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Understanding this will make all the difference when it comes to changing that customer’s behavior,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Emotional Needs. Starbucks provides more than just a good cup of coffee. What makes Starbucks different is how it fills an emotional need for its target market by offering a place to relax and spend quality time with friends, check e-mail,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and not be rushed out to make room for the next customer.
Functional Needs. Who knew that we needed to carry around a contraption with 8,000 songs on it? Apple did,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and it filled that functional need of its target market when it created the iPod.

Telling Behaviors. Let’s say your target market wants to help the environment. Does that mean they are careful to turn off light switches when they leave a room,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or do they go all the way and install solar panels on their home? Do they use recyclable eco-bags when shopping at stores, or do they go the extra step and stop the car on a highway to pick up trash? The extent of these ‘telling behaviors’ will shed a lot more light on the psychograph of your audience.
Since a solid brand positioning begins first and foremost with understanding your target,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the more intimately you know the core elements that make up a great target market statement, the better job you’ll do at building your brand and making it successful. How well do you know each of these elements of your target market?
In his 1985 book, Ogilvy on Advertising, David Ogilvy famously said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], “The consumer is not a moron; she is your wife.” Of course, he’d have a hard time getting away with that kind of comment today, but his point is still a valid one.
