Wes Benteen : People want to back a winner. They need to feel a part of something bigger than they are. They used to advertise the quality of a product - - tastes great, whitens your teeth, shaves close, rides like a dream - - Now what do they push? America's number one soft drink. Best-selling mid-sized utility vehicle. It isn't "buy the product." It's "Join the club." You make people feel part of a winner, they'll follow you anywhere.
