Hooked ‰ÛÒ INTERNET MARKETING PODCAST #298

by

In this podcast we talk to Nir about habit formation and consumer psychology. Nir used to be in the gaming and advertising industries, which are built upon engagement and mind control. In those industries Nir learned how to change user behaviour through using different technologies, but there was no ‰Û÷how to‰Ûª manual. Nir decided to spend some time better understanding human behaviour, then wrote the book he felt was missing, ‰Û÷Hooked ‰ÛÒ How to build habit forming products.‰Ûª
Nir talks about the purpose of his book. 1 use it for good. 2 we are also being manipulated 3. How do we, as business people, use this responsibly? Nir discusses the morality of manipulation and the questions you must ask yourself to know if it is truly good for people. He tells us about the ‰Û÷hook‰Ûª model which has 4 basic steps. If you want customers to form a habit around your products or services, you need to implement all 4 steps of the hook.

Brand Psychology: Consumer perceptions, corporate reputations ‰ÛÒ INTERNET MARKETING PODCAST #297

by

Today we are joined by Jonathan Gabay who has written 14 books, is endorsed by the CIM, was creative group head at Saatchi Saatchi and is a Thunderbirds fan. He talks about his thoughts behind his book, Brand Psychology. He points out how people often write things online which they don‰Ûªt truly feel; in that they say what other people would like them to say.
We asked him about disinhibition, which he refers to in his book. Minorities comments get the bigger responses in social media, because they are stirring it up. They are very contrary. He strongly advises marketers to stop producing campaigns using software and that it‰Ûªs time to start thinking of big data as the human mind. People are looking for an identity, which shows other people and yourself that you are authentic. What should we be doing differently? Jonathan suggests we follow our gut, to look at big data but also have common sense and the human instinct.

by

Today we talk to Jon who has been involved in marketing for 20 years. In 2005 Jon started urgentgenius.com and went on to publish the book ‰ÛÏNewsjacking‰Û. He tells us about his company ‰Û÷TBC‰Ûª (To Be Confirmed. To Be Continued. The Burkhart Company), ie nothing‰Ûªs been confirmed and everything‰Ûªs changing. We talk about real-time marketing and how brands must say no to certain events and they must always be relevant. Because of this, it‰Ûªs important for brands to know the difference between topical and relevant.
We ask Jon how we would know when there‰Ûªs a good opportunity to newsjack? Jon gives some good examples of who got it right, and who didn‰Ûªt. He talks about planned spontaneity, riding the wave and takes us through the B-A-L-L-S-Y brands checklist.
