As a marketer, I wish I had learned about the ‘labour illusion’ sooner. The labour illusion suggests that consumers perceive products more favourably when they’re aware of the effort put in. In today’s show Sam Tatam, Head of Behavioural Science at Ogilvy explains Aquafresh’s smart product marketing trick, why a cider brewer left twigs in their packages ‘by accident', and how Uber stops customers from cancelling their rides.

Very few of us come up with unique ideas. Just 1% of successful patents actually introduce something new to the world. Most successful ideas are built off other good ideas, so for true innovation, we should look at other fields like biology and psychology. That’s what today’s guest Sam Tatam, head of Behavioural Science at Ogilvy, argues. Join us as we discuss biomimicry, the energy provider that told customers not to buy and the brown M&M clause.

All of us use data. We use it to convince people at work, to decide which restaurant to go to, and where to invest our pension. But most of us don’t think about how we share data. Turns out, the way you share data is almost more important than the data itself. In this show, Karla Starr explains how to make numbers memorable. Listen to learn how to improve your marketing, how to become more convincing, and Ronald Regan’s major marketing mistake.
