Good Morning, Money!

Ep.296 IKEA’s Maze of Desire: How Design Turns Browsing Into Buying


Listen Later

IKEA isn’t chaos — it’s choreography. Every arrow, every staged room, and even that mid-way café is engineered to guide behavior. The store isn’t just selling furniture; it’s scripting desire. By the time you reach the warehouse, “maybe” has quietly become “yes.”

This episode unpacks the psychology behind IKEA’s billion-dollar funnel — why journey design outperforms persuasion, and how intention in layout, sequence, and reset moments can turn exploration into conversion.

Your move today: audit your customer path like IKEA audits its aisles. Cut one detour, stage your offer in context, and build a small “reset” before drop-off — a quiz, a freebie, or a human touchpoint.

Because when you choreograph curiosity, the sale writes itself.
