How do you get people to buy what you’re selling? In this episode of Finding Brave, marketing consultant and behavioral expert Leslie Zane reveals why traditional persuasion tactics often fall short when growing a business, selling an idea, or building your personal brand.

Leslie is an award-winning marketer, TEDx speaker, the Founder and CEO of the behavioral science-based firm, Triggers Brand Consulting, and the author of the groundbreaking new book, The Power of Instinct: The New Rules of Business and Persuasion.

Tuning in, you’ll learn to challenge conventional wisdom in business and brand building, rethink outdated rules that assume the conscious mind drives our decisions, and discover how to work with the hidden mind rather than against it. Leslie also uncovers the messages that create the most positive associations, explains why relying on existing customers is a trap, and discusses why emotional stories aren’t enough to drive long-term brand loyalty, plus so much more!

If you want to tap into the hidden brain where instinct prevails and create a powerful network of connections that drive people to buy your product, company, or vision, this episode is for you!
