The most powerful call to action of anything that we've ever tested: Let's get to work.I didnt create that phrase. It came from Rick Scott, the current governor of Florida.
Frank Luntz
What the people now respond - and the goal of those ads is to merely get the name of the medication into the minds of the consumers so that they will ask their doctor about it. That's the whole goal.
Frank Luntz
Your words have power. Find words that unite. Find words that unify.
Frank Luntz
With all due respect to UPS - it's a fine company - nobody cares about logistics. They care about that package arriving at their home, at their office, when it is supposed to and in the condition it's supposed to. FedEx is a much better communicator than UPS.
Frank Luntz
Rick Scott used let's get to work to say: All these politicians talk it's time to do. Everybody else talks about the problem it's time to find the solution.
Frank Luntz
The perfect opening is the word imagine, because imagine allows you to communicate in the eyes and the vision of the listener rather than yours. And the best illustration of that is 1984. Room 101 in 1984 - everyone's read it, and we all have our own imagination of what that looks like.
Frank Luntz
I don't understand why people whose entire lives or their corporate success depends on communication, and yet they are led on occasion by CEOs who cannot talk their way out of a paper bag and don't care to.
Frank Luntz
Eighty percent of our life is emotion, and only 20 percent is intellect. I am much more interested in how you feel than how you think. I can change how you think, but how you feel is something deeper and stronger, and it's something that's inside you.

Win is about the specific use of specific words to connect you to your employer or employees, politicians to voters - and frankly, to help people win debates, have discussions, and improve the level of communication.
Frank Luntz
The adjectives that are in the book [Win] - passion, persuasion, persistence, perfection, prioritization, being people-centered - none of them are as important as principles. Without principles, the language will fail.
Frank Luntz
Politics is gut commercials are gut.
Frank Luntz
The visual is important. Let's get to work says let's get it done, and that's what they want.
Frank Luntz
FedEx is another company that's passionate. When it absolutely, positively has to get there is such a great, aspirational phrase. And FedEx used it for almost a decade to communicate the passion of delivering a package. The more passionate you are, the more successful you are.
Frank Luntz
I have seen how effective language attached to policies that are mainstream and delivered by people who are passionate and effective can change the course of history.
Frank Luntz
There are about 50 or 60 recommendations [in Win] for how to communicate, not just the words themselves. All of them had to be tested. And in this short amount of time, it's just very time-consuming and very stressful to ensure that you get it right.
Frank Luntz
You need good principles and good language if you are to succeed.
Frank Luntz
This book [ Win] is based on the interviews with three dozen Fortune 400 - or Forbes 400, the richest people, and a couple dozen of the top CEOs.I wanted to know what language they use to be successful, and I wanted to know the attributes that could then be applied to the average individual.
Frank Luntz
While it is important to trash the governor, it should be done in the context of regret, sadness and balance.
Frank Luntz
The problem is people become so angry. And they become so vicious.
Frank Luntz
When I wrote Win, it only took about eight months, but eight months of sheer pain and suffering because every phrase that's in there - and there are about 130 specific linguistic recommendations - I had to test every one to make sure that it worked.
