Everyone seems to be distracted today thanks to technology and so much noise online. Fortunately Ben Parr, author of "Captivology: The Science of Catching People's Attention" was able to do just that with Kym. He has the secrets to capturing the attention of customers, partners, investors and more. He explains the tiers of gathering people's attention being similar to a fire from ignition to kindling to bonfire, why his book is not a how-to for self-promoters, and how violating expectations of your customers might just be your key to success.
