1 Psychology Foundations
How can we capture and hold attention? How capable are we of making truly rational decisions? To what extent do first impressions, visuals, and emotions affect our ability to learn information?
Throughout Track One, we explore the psychological principles that drive human behavior and attempt to answer these questions.
2 Neuromarketing & persuasion models
Throughout track 2, neuromarketing, behavioral science and conversion experts will share the tools and frameworks necessary to evolve your marketing strategy. Roger Dooley will explain how the fast-growing discipline of Neuromarketing emphasizes how to appeal to the largely untapped, nonconscious brain. André Morys will show you how the human brain really works, and how you can leverage that knowledge to increase sales and conversions. Brian Cugelman and Michael Aagaard will teach you core lessons in digital psychology and show you how to apply them to your conversion funnel.
