No one likes to be on the wrong side of the velvet rope.
NO ONE likes to be excluded.

It’s just something in us that craves attention, significance and meaning … and that’s called pride.
That’s not a bad thing because as a copywriter or advertiser you can use that emotion to motivate people to do what you want.
