In this Brainfluence Brief, we have a discussion that is both fascinating and actionable with Richard Shotton, author of a book with a unique twist in its subtitle: "16 and a Half Psychological Biases That Influence What We Buy."
In this episode, we explore the intriguing psychology behind using precise numbers in marketing. Precision can significantly boost credibility and believability and make a marketing more effective. Drawing on the pioneering research of psychologist Schindler and real-world data from Uber, Richard illustrates why marketers should avoid round numbers in their claims and pricing. Instead, providing exact, precise figures can convey certainty and knowledge, making your messages more persuasive.
