Default New study shows Bonuses give a kick similar to Pornography

Here is something interesting ....

A study in the UK shows that bonuses/discounts - especially with an image of a cartoon, give the shopper a kick that is similar to viewing pornography.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/news...hing-****.html

Bloggers at Stylelist.com explained: " Scientists from the University of Westminster in England made the finding after wiring 50 volunteers and gauging their eye movements and emotional responses to shopping promotions, according to the paper.

Using a scale of 1 to 10, with a score of 5 to 7 on par with sexual arousal, the study reportedly showed that getting free items with their purchases made people register high scores.
"

I guess it might be profitable sitting down with Gordon, Glenn and some of you to make an information product (with bonuses, of course ) ...

Oh, just realised - I am out of some stuff ... need to go shopping now ...

Phil,

Thanks so much for your links. These are 5-Star !

I could study this all day long.

... if this is your "quick selection" , I really wonder what the "extended" version looks like ...

I bought Dr. Cloitaire Rapaille's book The Culture Code and it was interesting ... and then Renvoise's Neuromarketing , and Think Limbic by Hans Häsel. Fascinating stuff ...

When this stuff gets going, I totally lose productivity on everything else ...

Default I liked the Pied Piper Effect of How Stories Link Brains Electrically

Thanks Phil,

Your link to the Yogurt Article.

Led me to another about how stories Sync Up the brains of the story teller
and the listener.

They even had photos of the brain areas lighting up in tandem.

Leader - and follower.

Story teller - Listener (Are Electrically LINKED)

No wonder

written

audio

and movie story-telling is so Powerful.

And why most books and movies today FAIL. Because they lack any underlying story at all!

Good stuff.

Glenn

Default Mark Zuckerberg of FaceBook Celebrating w/SCARY Stories

Hi,

I'm now watching a recent 2010 interview of the CEO of FaceBook.

When asked, "How are you celebrating 500 MILLION FaceBook users?"

He said, "We've compiled and shared the BEST STORIES of how our users use
our platform."

Mark answers questions with stories.

He uses story - metaphors also.

AND then Mark said Something SCARY.

He thinks an on-line Paradigm Shift is coming that will DISRUPT all
Current on-line companies. (Off-line with an on-line function too.)

Mark says, "All companies will change to a people centered (People based)
Focus."

ONE MEANING - People will gravitate to companies who give them the most
CONTROL, Power and Freedom Choices.

Zuckerberg has his entire team of 1600 employees working to provide
Plug-ins allowing any company to create APPS that apply
the FaceBook communication LEVERAGE.

Says he's in talks with Steve Jobs at Apple.

Because 50% of all iPhone users have the FaceBook APP.

We're moving fast folks.

Hang on for a wild ride!
