The marketer’s job is to create the brand and then create the pattern by associating that brand making neural connections to other memories in your brain.

In this third episode, Dr Steidl is providing great examples of priming that cost very little to achieve your marketing goals. You’ll also learn about how to convince the consumer that your brand can address the goals that have not been previously associated in their memory when it comes the time to buy.

How to Get the Attention of your Customers with Priming? 10 Key takeaways  

Here are the 10 key takeaways from our conversation today:

  1. The environment in which you present your brand and product is hugely important in shaping behaviour and creating perceptions and it doesn’t have to costs more. 
  2. Priming doesn’t have to cost you anything or very little but it gives people the feeling they already got something. 
  3. Priming can be used as a social validation tool, i.e. telling people that this is the top seller. 
  4. Packaging can also be used to prime the consumer. 
  5. Focus on understanding what your brand means i.e the brand memory pattern in the head of your consumer. 
  6. Gamify the user experience, get them involved, excited and build relationships. 
  7. Consumers are looking for dopamine hits, so your brand has to bring that dopamine hit in one way or another to succeed.
  8. An effective way to get people to act consistently is to encourage them not to plan what they will achieve. 
  9. Taking smaller steps can go a long way to achieve your goal and be more sustainable. 
  10. You can train your brain by minimizing or eliminating activities that undermine your willpower with simple exercises
