What do you learn in this episode? Dirkje is the co-owner of Shift Behavioral Change, a company that specializes in helping different branches of government and companies to influence the way that their target audience act. We start our conversation the conversation about one of the most hottest words in marketing psychology: Nudging. It means you make small changes to the context of the situation that the consumer is in to steer their behavior in a certain direction. We talk about how they did that quite literally on one of the biggest round-a-bouts of The Netherlands in Nijmegen. The way they used just a little bit of duct tape to change the behavior of cyclists makes a great story. Marketing Psychology: Using system 1 After that we get a little more technical on how the brain works and how 95% of our actions and decisions are the result of our unconscious 'system 1’. It is our automatic behavior what makes us so vulnerable to these marketing psychology tactics, which we go into in-dept. Dirkje describes the tricks a car salesmen use like the low-balling technique, which makes people say yes to a higher price than they actually bargained for. After that about techniques like scarcity, social proof, foor-in-the-door, door-in-the-face, social proof and many more. Intention-Behavior Gap We also touch on something called the Intention-Behavior gap. It means that we will not actually do what we say we will do, although we think we absolutely the intention of doing so. It is the big reason why many products fail, in spite of positive market research where test subjects say they will absolutely buy something. This contains a big lesson for marketers when they build a campaign or do a new product launch. Of course there’s a lot to say about the ethical side of influencing the behavior of consumers, especially on a subconscious level. Dirkje gives us some great tips on how to deal with these issues, so us marketers can still sleep without feeling guilty. For more information on Dirkje van der Ven, just clink on the links below...
