The Core Concept

Customers don't buy products. They HIRE products to do a job.

"People don't want a quarter-inch drill. They want a quarter-inch hole." Actually: They want a shelf → to display photos → to feel proud of family.

Functional	What task needs doing?	"Help me [verb] [object]"
Emotional	How do I want to feel?	"Make me feel [emotion]"
Social	How do I want to be seen?	"Help me be seen as [quality]"
