Curiosity can fatten your wallet.

Hi I’m Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.

While my hair is all over the place, I’m looking at it. Oh, well, you know, it’s, it’s late tonight, this is a recording this on a Monday night. Had a great day. gotta talk to some great people today, some really inspiring people, and nothing ever wrong with that.

I wanted to go into a deeper conversation with you about some of the projects I have going on, and see if there’s just an a mild interest among my viewers and listeners.

And there are actually three projects, and I’m going to tell you a little bit about them real quick.

But first, I want to talk about curiosity. And it goes by a whole bunch of different names.

People have different ways of explaining it, but there’s something about the ability to make your audience a little curious about something, the way to withhold information.

It’s like having a missing puzzle piece, and it just drives human beings absolutely nutty, it’s a dirty trick. It’s a horrible, horrible, dirty trick. But it’s relatively painless, and it’s not the worst thing in the world.

But it is a trick, and it does work. And it’s a great way to be able to take something, you withhold something from your audience in some form or fashion.

If you’re a business owner or executive, you could do this within your marketing, you can hold things back, you can string things out, you can add more intrigue.

That’s another word that gets bandied about a lot, yet add intrigue into the process of marketing, so that people aren’t expecting to get it all at once.

You see, it’s those quick little commercials that try and sell you in 30 seconds, or 15 seconds, they’re trying to sell you real quick, and they want you to buy, buy, buy, that always feel like it’s a bit too much, you know?

Oftentimes they’ll feel like and that’s why they have to be something kind of quirky and something kind of funny and something kind of a quick buy.

But if it’s something that requires a little more and requires a little more attention or requires maybe a larger investment, you’ve got to extend the process along where you’re telling the story where you have time to be able to unfold the story behind the sale, in a sense.

And so this can be done via email, this can be done via video, this can be done, I mean, there’s a million different ways that you can do the exact same thing.

But if you’re able to extend things along and you’re able to stretch it out a little bit, it builds curiosity, but it’s because there’s a longing for what you’re building up to. And there’s a way of doing it, and there’s a way not to do it.

We can get into all the details, but that would be a bit too much.

I’m going to I’ll probably be I’m going to use curiosity a bit here.

But to tell you that I’m going to I’m going to play more and more with this concept over time and talk more and more about it. So I want you to subscribe, I want you to come back and watch and listen on a regular basis. If you enjoy listening more, go via the podcast route.

So go check out Brian J. Pombo Live, we continue this conversation on curiosity and how it functions.

Now, here’s a curious point that I’m going to bring up. And there’s a reason why I’m stretching this out.

It’s not because I’m trying to string you along or trying to get you intrigued on anything. It’s really because I’ve got a couple more steps that I personally have to fix. Before I tell you the whole story behind these three projects I’m working on.

These are three long term projects, and I’ve been developing them for years and years and years.

One of them is well over 20 years old. One of them is older than that probably 25 I think I think we can say realistically it’s about a 25 year old idea that I’ve been playing with for years and years. It’s just now at a point where it can come to fruition, I believe.

And then a third idea third Project concept that I’m working on, is tied directly to…well, I’m not gonna tell you, it’s it has…it’s the youngest one of all of them, but has the most activity, it’s the least likely to be of interest to most people.

But if there’s somebody out there that does have an interest in it, you’re going to want to know what it is.

I’m going to go through real lightly what these three things are, just give you enough to see. It’s not meant to be a tease, but it’s going to feel like these just give you enough to see if there’s an interest level in them whatsoever.

Then I’m going to get you three call to actions, three separate ones, where if you’re interested in door number one, you’ll take that one, door number two, you’ll take that one in door number three, you’ll take that one, so on if you want all three, you can go through each door independently, but I’m going to have those ready for you.

Hopefully tomorrow, if not the day after, well, I shouldn’t be giving myself away out should I?

I should probably say tomorrow.

Okay, let’s do it tomorrow. Let’s do it. Tomorrow night.

You’d be here tomorrow, and we’ll go through it. So that’s all I’ve got for tonight. A little bit of curiosity, a little bit of intrigue. It’s fun to play around with those type of things. And it really does no harm, especially if you’re a magician like me and you.

You’re the bad magician, you you show how the tricks done. I’m giving you the inside. Look on how the tricks done here.
