Tactical and Strategic Marketing is often how I describe Psychological Operations (PSYOP) to laypersons. It has all of the elements of marketing with the exception that there is not a product or service that we are selling. It has been re-branded as Military Information Support to Operations (MISO). To paraphrase, MISO is the planned communications of information to select audiences in order to shape their beliefs, attitudes, and/or behaviors.

It has all of the elements of marketing with the exception that there is not a product or service that we are selling. It has been re-branded as Military Information Support to Operations (MISO). To paraphrase, MISO is the planned communications of information to select audiences in order to shape their beliefs, attitudes, and/or behaviors. MISO professionals must have an in depth understanding of the target audiences. The elements of target audience analysis that we have experience with in austere, high stress environments include:Demographic research and analysisSurvey design and developmentField researchConducting interviewsKey Leader EngagementsLiterature reviewsWriting field assessments, research reports, policy recommendationsMarket SegmentationStatistical Analysis of polls and surveysProspecting (Target nomination)Cultural researchPsychographics researchSymbology Facilitating focus groupsMy teams have developed messaging through information channels that are deemed most likely to achieve the desired effect and reach with the intended audience. We developed hundreds of messages that have been delivered through channels to include:Print media to include newspapers (ads, editorials, and articles)Leaflets, Handbills, Flyers, etc.Radio programmingAudio broadcasts through loudspeakersInternet applications and websitesWe have extensive experience with designing methods to evaluate the effectiveness of marketing efforts and the analysis of those methods in order to make adjustments and recommendations to executive level leadership. Additionally, we maintain hundreds of thousands of dollars of equipment, train...a lot, maintain high levels of physical fitness, and maintain proficiency with our military tactical skills.We spend a lot of time training, going to meetings, writing, and taking care of administrative duties.

We do this by implementing process improvement, leadership, and effective communications.At Dale Carnegie we help Servicemen, Veterans, and units of all types realize greater success in their missions by improving their skill sets for greater performance.I discovered Dale Carnegie Training shortly after an NTC rotation at Ft. Irwin California where my mission was to assist the 1st Infantry Division in their train up for a deployment to Iraq. There was a particular late night after the BUB, where I was teaching a couple of the young officers how to be more effective in communication skills. I had an 'ah ha' moment that day. I was a Psychological Operations (PSYOP) Specialist leading a tactical team. It is our job in PSYOP to be the Commander's resident 'experts' in the arts and sciences of influencing people. I had already completed all of the influence training that the Army had to offer, it was an 'ah ha' that I need to do and learn more!! My quest began.I found Dale Carnegie Training. For nearly a hundred years Dale Carnegie Training has been helping people develop communication skills. The difference between what Dale Carnegie Training does and anything else that I have experienced is that it is not an academic experience. We don't read about how to develop relationships, we get to actually develop the skills to develop relationships. It is about rethinking how we relate to others, techniques for inspiring others, and so much more. These are the skills that make the smallest of differences in a complex world that is getting ever so smaller... with huge results.With all of mankind's technological progress....what still matters most is the ability to gain cooperation or compliance with someone who right in front of you. Dale Carnegie Training will show you how to communicate effectively, how to sell yourself and ideas, and do so with confidence. Show less
