Surprise is an awe-inspiring emotion
Who doesn’t like to be surprised?
Walt Disney has a year-long theme, “The Year of a Million Dreams,”
Disney has added a brilliant twist to the age-old favourite. They’ve added a surprise.
Here’s their twist. “Imagine walking through one of the Walt Disney World
Theme Parks when a Cast Member taps you on the shoulder to offer you a
dream come true. Right now, over a million extra-special dreams, some
thought impossible, are being randomly awarded to people just like you.”
Surprise your customers and they will never forget you. Give them
unexpected gifts, vacation holidays, free tickets to music concerts or cricket
matches.
Try to give them extended credit, when they least expect it.
Test this theory at home. Send a large bouquet of flowers to your wife today
with an “I love you note” when you are in office.
Either you will have a great weekend or she will talk to your family doctor.
Surprise is the ultimate “Wow” factor. This is a great marketing tool, which
is not used often.
Surprise is an awe-inspiring emotion. It demands to be shared. How could
you add one of Disney’s favourite elements – “surprise” – to your marketing toolkit .
