However, make sure that you are challenging people and their looks, personality or stuff. You can challenge conventional ideas without being rude. It is important you put your own point of view as against to the unconventional one that already exist. Your unconventional idea might get different response and not everyone might agree with it.
The attention key
Challenging conventional point of view has that ‘attention’ key. You offer different point of view which makes sense for everyone to start getting curious of what it is. Your ideas may also draw attention from other innovators creating massive buzz which can boost your brand as well.
No more CTA
Most businesses often try to convert customers. They often suggest to put ‘a call to action’ element in the email. However, you can try the opposite of it. Do not try to convert your customers. Many businesses often go overboard with trying to convert customers. However, the effect can be the opposite of what expected. Instead of being drawn, customers may feel suffocated or pressured. You can try being less. Choose simple approach to engage your customers. Focus on what your brand is good at and make it the best point to show your customers.
Build secret society to build the hype
You can also try building a secret society to build the hype of your brand awareness. Get someone right to endorse your brand. Mega influencers might not be accessible for your brand but you can approach another person who have powerful influence. You can first connect with micro-influencers on social media and through your own network. It may needs take time before your brand is blowing up but it is worth a try. Choose the right influencers who have their ideas aligned with your businesses value. So they can spread the value with their own followers.
