📜 Course Overview

We all want our product or service to ‘catch on’ - but what is it that makes people talk about and buy our product or service? Today, outstanding products and big advertising budgets are not the only factors that make a ‘winner.’ Learn to apply consumer psychology to increase your brand’s popularity, adoption, and use.

Using proven research and best-in-class examples, we’ll highlight how you can create positive, memorable, and shareable experiences, from awareness all the way to retention, and explain how you can use these same strategies within your organization to make your ideas and initiatives ‘catch on.’
