Marketing to Mindstates

from From Startup to Wunder Brand · host Nicholas Kuhne

From pressure-washing businesses to global CPG giants, Will shows how temporary mind states, nine core motivations, and simple laddering conversations let you craft messages that cut through the filter of the non-conscious mind. In a world drowning in AI-generated content, understanding goals, motivations, approach and cognitive biases is the difference between noise and real behaviour change.
