There’s a research finding going around that humans have all the attention of a goldfish, which is to say about 8 seconds. I’m not a math guy and I don’t know if that number it too high or too low, but I do know one thing for sure – getting the attention of busy people is one of the hardest jobs in business.
Jon Buchan – Always Be Winning
Finally, Cold Leads Can Be Transformed
A foolproof way to get your foot in any door is cold cash
Dear Charmer
There’s a research finding going around that humans have all the attention of a goldfish, which is to say about 8 seconds. I’m not a math guy and I don’t know if that number it too high or too low, but I do know one thing for sure – getting the attention of busy people is one of the hardest jobs in business. It doesn’t matter if you’re a billion dollar giant or a sole proprietor working out of your home. If you can’t get the attention of the people you want to attract, you might as well be invisible.
As you can see, the funnel is wider at its top than it is at its bottom. That’s because there are more people coming into your funnel than will end up taking Action. Another way of looking at it is that Attention is the opening of the sale, and Action is closing the sale. Here are the “Sale” You could opt in to an email newsletter, make a call, redeem a coupon or donate to charity. We call this the “sales cycle,” It could take a few seconds or even a whole year to get from Opening to Closing. You don’t need to think about buying a bag of potato chips at half price, but you should consider signing a contract for multi-packs.-Millions of enterprise software applications involving thousands are a much more complicated decision.
If you’re a well-known celebrity like Tiger Woods or Julia Roberts, you don’t have to work very hard to get attention. Imagine Tiger tweeting out that he is offering private golf lessons. Julia telling the media that she is teaching acting classes. It is likely that many people will pay attention to these offers. People listen when people have credibility and visibility.
People like you and I may be well-known in our own circles, but they are not known to the wider audience we seek. We can’t build a predictable and scalable business on Word of Mouth Marketing alone.
Our job may be harder than Tiger’s or Julia’s, but that doesn’t mean we can’t be successful. Everyone starts out as a nobody, and we’ve all heard of people who have come out of nowhere and become household names. Justin Bieber was an unknown, as was Susan Boyle.
The problem is that we’re all bombarded with noise everywhere we go, and it’s only getting worse.
According to Time Well Spent. “We live in an arms race for attention. Because we only have so much attention in our lives, everything has to fight harder to get it. YouTube autoplays more videos, so we forget to leave. Instagram shows new likes one at a time, so we keep checking in. Facebook shows whatever keeps us on screen, whether it’s true or not. News media turns everything into instant, breaking news.”
It’s harder than ever to GET ATTENTION in an age of overwhelm and clutter.

Many people believe that shouting louder than anyone else is the way to success. This might be fine for a baby hungry and unable to communicate with anyone else except by shouting at the top of their lungs. However, an adult who shouts can be considered a loudmouth and a braggart or a pest. This can make you successful. You can be a success in this way, no matter how you feel about them. People like Rush Limbaugh or Howard Stern take pride being offensive but they also alienate large segments of the population. I doubt you’d want to do that.
There’s a better way
I’ve found a better way, a system based on immutable human nature, not hacks and tricks that will be obsolete as soon as the next Facebook algorithm comes along. A system that isn’t obnoxious, loud, and boorish. A system that makes use of involuntary human reactions and allows you turn predictable behavior into predictable income.
I’m talking about a way of getting attention based on Laughter. Humour. Making People Smile.
Who am I? Why should you listen to me?
Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Jon Buchan. I specialize in creative b2b campaigns that achieve results. Charm Offensive, a Facebook group I run, is dedicated to my unique approach in new business.
Here’s my story.
A few years ago, I was in desperate need of sales after my word-of mouth work had dried up.
One night, I was so drunk that I wrote an absurd cold email. The next morning, I was still drunk and decided that it would be a good idea for me to send it to senior marketing directors at large brands.
To my surprise, it worked!
My favorite one is succinctly stated “My colleague forwarded me your spam email and we would like to meet you to discuss opportunities.”
I’ve met with senior decision makers at RedBull, Pepsi, Symantec, Hewlett-Packard, HSBC and Barclays are just a few of the exciting global brands that make it possible to start an innovative business.-ups and regular ol’ SMEs.
I’ve used this same style to get senior editors at large publications to respond to me and publish my clients content.
I’ve used it to help people get as many job interviews as they want – and to meet people I really look up to.
I’ve recently used it to get booked on some awesome podcasts too. Kevin Rogers and Michael Senoff interviewed me this year. They’d never heard of me until I cold emailed them.
I am so excited about this…
I want to put you in a position where you are never worried about how you’re gonna find new clients. You’re always going to have opportunities. You can get involved in any type of business. It doesn’t matter if it’s a local business, an exciting and innovative start up, or a global brand. You can meet any type of person – even if they’re a journalist at a national publication, an industry expert you look up to, or the CEO of a gigantic corporation. You will be able to open opportunities for yourself whenever you want – and when you’re able to do that, life gets really exciting.
I never thought I’d give this information away – which I guess is why I’m selling it instead.
