How to Sell Humour to the Humour-Resistant — Masterclass Edition

£999.00

Sometimes the book is not enough: this masterclass edition includes two hours of consultancy. Typically, the first hour is a chance for you to share your questions and brand challenges; the second hour is my chance, after reflection, to suggest solutions to help you and your brand.

Mention the word ‘humour’ and some businesses aren’t completely convinced. Isn’t humour frivolous? Isn’t it subjective? Above all, shouldn’t we be serious?

Well you can be serious, but the snag is that humour in advertising has been conclusively shown to make people more likely to buy the product or service that you sell. One report from 2022 said that nine out of ten customers say they’re more likely to remember a funny ad. Humour is a very serious tool indeed.

If you need to convince others, though, this is your guide: a selection of the strongest arguments showing how humour isn’t just a way to amuse but an extremely effective strategic tool.
