Hook ‘Em: The Psychology of Persuasive Products
Our experts will teach you how to design products, websites, apps, and marketing campaigns using the science of human behavior. What was the psychology behind Slack becoming the dominant team app? Why was Whatsapp worth billions when dozens of messaging apps failed to get traction?
Successful websites and apps are habit forming. There are specific, brain-oriented approaches to attracting interest, signing up users, and keeping them engaged.
Our panelists will each have a short formal presentation, followed by a discussion open to the audience. This will be a session packed with actionable advice and takeaways that audience members can apply immediately to their own projects.
