How Behavioral Science Helps Brands Overcome Fragmented Insights

from Inside Insights

Marketing teams waste millions chasing what consumers say they'll do. Richard Shotton, Founder of Astroten and author of Hacking the Human Mind, reveals how behavioral science bridges the gap between consumer intentions and actual purchasing behavior. He shows how brands like Apple, Guinness, and Monzo use psychological principles to influence decisions without consumers even realizing it. In this episode you'll discover the "pennies a day" pricing strategy that makes expensive products feel affordable, the "Pratfall Effect" that makes admitting flaws increase brand appeal, and why making your product visually distinctive creates the impression of popularity that drives more sales.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
