John                  Wayne is John Wayne. No matter what movie he starred in, he was                  John Wayne, the American icon. John Wayne was not his name, but                  who cares? Is this a fraud? Our answer is no. John Wayne's marketers                  simply built his persona based on his true character.</span></p>               <p class="text">All businesses can learn from actors. The techniques                  of acting and star-building are valuable to persona development.                  Controlling exterior action, expression, and tone to achieve a                  specific audience response is the goal of both great actors and                  great personas. Invest in acting classes and sales training for                  your publicly visible staff. </p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://personaco.com/actors-are-image-marketers-too/rss-comments-entry-1280157.xml</wfw:commentRss></item></channel></rss>
