Sell the sizzle, not the steak.

Summary

This quote refers to the idea of marketing or advertising a product or idea based on its desirable or enticing features, rather than focusing solely on its basic functionality or merits.

It suggests that emphasizing the sensory, emotional, or aspirational aspects of a product is often more effective in capturing consumer interest and driving sales.
