Take drug company television ads, for example. Over a soft musical track, they under promise what the product can actually do for you (lots of “mays”, “helps”, and “cans”) while showing you video of people happily going about normal daily activities… followed by a bombardment of side effect warnings.
If Chiropractors advertised their service like that, do you think that their marketing would be effective?
Of course not.
So, why does it work so well for drug companies?
1. Most drugs don’t prevent, they “treat”.
and…
2. Most people don’t take responsibility for their health. They never have and never will.
So, before you preach prevention or give patients a long laundry list of things to do to become healthier, first give them what they want because if you don’t, they sure and heck won’t be around long enough to listen to anything else.
