Products that tap consumer psychology - Triggers & Trump with Dr. Syagnik Banerjee
Manage episode 312301451 series 3232285
Dan Ariely in his book, Predictably Irrational, starts off with this example. If you were to choose one of The Economist’s subscription plans, which would you choose? 1) Digital only for $59, 2) Print only for $125 or 3) Print + Digital for $125?
Most people go for the third option, even if they came in to buy just the Digital subscription! Such examples, where product managers utilise consumer psychology to push/pull the consumer abound the world of technology. This particular strategy is called ‘Decoy Pricing’ and we do it on the Turnaround newsletter too (I’m talking to all you folks who pay $5 every month instead of $30 for the year!)
On the Use Case podcast today, we have Dr. Syagnik Banerjee who is an Associate Professor of Marketing at the University of Michigan-Flint. The conversation begins by introducing the rational/irrational behaviours that exist in the market, how they are integrated in both digital and physical products around us followed by a discussion of how Trump’s marketing team used consumer psychology to tap into the voters’ minds. Would it be unethical to take a cue from him? Yes. But, we will discuss it nevertheless because it’s important to be aware.
