Capturing attention

With a Remarkable Venture listing, that first 5 seconds happens when a company sees your listing picture and title on your listing card.  The picture is the first thing to capture their attention just long enough to warrant a glimpse at the title.  Make sure these two items together stand out, waiting to be clicked.  If they do click on your listing card, your chance of an inquiry just became possible.

Holding attention

But you aren’t there yet.  The Problem Statement is what they scan through next.  If your problem is clear and concise, they may keep reading.  You have about 10 seconds to hold their attention in the problem statement.  If they recognize the problem as real and meaningful within that timeframe, the likelihood of inquiry just went up exponentially.

Creating anticipation

The Solution Benefits is where to seal the deal.  Allow a little more detail in this section, but it should still be clear and concise.  If the company is satisfied with the benefit and can see your effort and creativity, you’re more likely to receive an inquiry.

Introducing expectations

A well written Goal Statement reinforces your capabilities and allows you to show intention of mutual benefit.  It also provides preliminary expectations and starts to form a healthy business relationship. 

Showing Diligence

The rest of your listing is locked to the public but you can use these sections to make sure that serious companies that are part of the community can see how much effort you have exerted to make sure they receive a valuable idea.

Each section requires thoughtfulness and creativity, beginning with the listing card.  Some inventors spend thousands of dollars to design Kickstarter campaigns.  That’s not necessary for a Remarkable Venture listing, but it shows the importance of the first glance and the effectiveness of creating quality content.  Remember that your listing may produce a valuable stream of income for years to come, so put forth the necessary effort for success.

Now you understand the importance of your Remarkable Venture listing strategy.  Quality content with concise wording throughout the listing is key and creativity doesn’t hurt!
