Understand How The Reptilian Brain Works

• Does things the same way and never learns

• Cares only about basic survival

• Is the gatekeeper for the other 2 brains


Part II

Practical Strategies

(how to make money off of this stuff)


1 - What you need to know

• Making choices tires the brain and can make subsequent decision making difficult

• Help guide customers (wizards – not filtering)

• Do not overwhelm

• Remove similar choices



• We anchor on the first thing we see

• Add a new high-end item (which will not sell well)

• Show in decreasing price order

• Sales of reasonable compromise will increase

• Irrational anchors can be put in the “lobby”



• People are tribal

• Some tribes are self-selected

• We care more about people similar to us

• Look the part

• Communicate your values with editorial tone

• Don’t worry about alienating outsiders
