Growth Hacking using behavioral economics
2 likes441 views
This document discusses how behavioral economics principles can be used for growth hacking and increasing conversion rates. It outlines seven behavioral principles: reciprocity, choice overload, anchoring, loss aversion, decoy effect, social proof, and scarcity heuristic. For each principle, it provides a brief explanation and examples of how it can be applied. It then presents an exercise where participants work in groups to integrate at least three of the principles into templates for a subscription plan, email, or e-commerce page. Suggested changes and additions are reviewed along with which approaches may be most effective.

Launder-4-U Laundry Tips: Start by preparing the dress shirt. Unbutton all of the buttons, including cuff buttons and any collar buttons. Remove any collar stays if it has them and put them in a safe place. Pre-treat any stains by carefully working a little detergent into them, or better yet spot-cleaning them with a stain remover pen. Set up your washing machine: To minimize wear on a fine or lightweight dress shirt, use the Delicate cycle. If the shirt is made from a heavier duty fabric, or is particularly dirty you may opt for the Normal cycle. Whites and light colors can use hot water. Dark colored shirts that you don’t want to fade should be washed with cold water. Take care not to include other laundry items with bold colors that may bleed into your shirts. Reciprocity.
