His work is featured in the iOS App Store, Wall Street Journal, CNN, Business Insider, Forbes, and Big Think.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be successful, digital marketers often have to be excellent psychologists. Knowing what makes people tick and placing those psychological triggers in the right way can be extremely helpful to <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/conversion-rate-optimization\/\">increase conversion rates <\/a>and reach better marketing results. The following are 7 must-know psychology lessons that you should apply to your strategy as soon as possible to boost your digital marketing game. Of course, it goes without saying that only through carefully <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/testing\/ab-testing\/\">calibrated experimentation<\/a> should these lessons be applied for better engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/ab-testing\/#guide-download\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Download Free: A\/B Testing Guide<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"1. Emotional marketing\" id=\"1-emotional-marketing\" data-menu-id=\"1-emotional-marketing\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>1. Emotional marketing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>There are two types of strategies that affect consumers\u2019 buying habits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rational marketing <\/strong>promotes the quality and usefulness of the product, emphasizes the benefits, and appeals to the rational or logical consumer, whereas <strong>emotional marketing <\/strong>approaches consumers on a personal level and focuses on the tone, lighting, and mood to increase loyalty and boost conversions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been proven that consumers base their purchase decisions around feelings and emotions rather than the rational information of products\u2019 features and attributes. So, it\u2019s worth remembering that customers will more likely be loyal to brands that evoke a positive emotional response. Use this knowledge in your <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/glossary\/content-marketing\/\">content marketing<\/a> strategy and create content that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Inspires, creates excitement and interest\u2013 Reminds of special moments<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Sparks conversations, reactions, and engagements<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple is the perfect example of a company that uses emotions to connect with their consumers and increase brand loyalty. Apple\u2019s marketing strategies tend to create a desire to become a part of a lifestyle movement, to be a part of something bigger. When Apple joined Instagram, their #ShotoniPhone campaign fully encompassed those values. Instead of focusing on shiny product shots, Apple invites regular users around the world to share their iPhone photography with others.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/01\/Emotional-Marketing-Apple.jpg\" alt=\"Emotional Marketing Apple\" class=\"wp-image-2953\" title=\"Emotional Marketing Apple\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/appleinsider.com\/articles\/17\/08\/07\/apple-joins-instagram-to-push-shot-on-iphone-marketing-campaign\">appleinsider<\/a>&nbsp;<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"2.

Social proof<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/glossary\/social-proof\/\">Social proof<\/a> is one of the most important tactics for influencing and convincing customers. It is based on the fact that people love to follow the behavior of others. We tend to adopt the beliefs or mimic the actions of people we trust and admire. Implement this knowledge in your marketing strategy by using:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 User-generated content, testimonials, and reviews\u2013 Influencer marketing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Social plugins and sharing buttons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, retail company AMD <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/success-stories\/amd\/\">improved their social sharing by 3600%<\/a> by leveraging <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/testing\/ab-testing\/\">VWO Tools<\/a>.

Grounded cognition\" id=\"3-grounded-cognition\" data-menu-id=\"3-grounded-cognition\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>3. Grounded cognition<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Grounded Cognition theory is based on the principle that people can experience a story that they read, watch or hear as if it was happening to them. It also states that people tend to forget dry facts and figures. If you want your customers to remember your message, you have to incorporate it into a story. Taking this into account you can boost your <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/conversion-rate-optimization\/cro-guide-for-marketers\/\">CRO marketing<\/a> by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Speaking to your audience in a friendly way<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Telling the stories they can empathize with<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Sharing a personal story or experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>High Brew Coffee provides a great example of a personal story that enables the audience to connect with the brand. The founder of the company, David Smith, together with his wife have shared<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?time_continue=2&amp;v=XB_LWSawcY0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> their story<\/a> of coming up with their business idea. They let the audience know exactly where it comes from\u2014a long trip through the Caribbean with their whole family.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"4. Paradox of choice\" id=\"4-paradox-of-choice\" data-menu-id=\"4-paradox-of-choice\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>4. Paradox of choice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Giving people the freedom of choice can positively influence your marketing efforts. However, too many choices make people nervous and can negatively impact conversion rates. According to psychologist Barry Schwarz, providing people with a limited range of choices reduces their anxiety and leads to better marketing results. Use this knowledge and:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Emphasize a few key points at a time<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Create clear CTAs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Give your customers no more than two clear paths to follow<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The power of relevant CTAs cannot be underestimated. PriceCharting saw a <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/success-stories\/pricecharting\/\">621% increase in conversion <\/a>by improving their CTAs using VWO testing. The Paradox of Choice theory can be applied also if you wish to offer your customers a wider range of choices. For example, while Amazon offers millions of products, they still manage to avoid choice overload. It\u2019s done by highlighting a few different categories of products, each with up to 7 product options.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/01\/Paradox-of-choice-Amazon-1024x537.jpg\" alt=\"paradox of choice for buying on Amazon\" class=\"wp-image-2957\" title=\"Paradox of choice Amazon\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/\">Amazon<\/a><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"5. Information-gap theory\" id=\"5-information-gap-theory\" data-menu-id=\"5-information-gap-theory\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>5. Information-gap theory<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/George_Loewenstein\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">George Loewenstein<\/a> proposed that people experience a strong emotional response when they notice a gap between what they know and what they want to know. This means that you have to create a feeling of curiosity within your audience and give them information that fulfills their need for knowledge. An effective way to incorporate it in your content marketing is by creating powerful headlines. There are plenty of free online tools that can help, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/coschedule.com\/headline-analyzer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Coschedule headline analyzer.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take an example of digital marketing expert Neil Patel who is a master of strong headlines that create curiosity and generate clicks:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/01\/Information-Gap-Theory-Neil-Patel.jpg\" alt=\"Information Gap Theory Neil Patel\" class=\"wp-image-2959\" title=\"Information Gap Theory Neil Patel\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/neilpatel.com\/\">neilpatel<\/a><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/ab-testing\/#guide-download\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Download Free: A\/B Testing Guide<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"6. The commitment and consistency theory\" id=\"6-the-commitment-and-consistency-theory\" data-menu-id=\"6-the-commitment-and-consistency-theory\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>6. The commitment and consistency theory<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>This theory states that if you make a small commitment to something, you are more likely to say yes to a bigger commitment in the future. This means that if you get your customers to make a small commitment towards your brand, like signing up for a newsletter, they are more likely to make a larger commitment e.g. in the form of a purchase or a membership. To improve your marketing strategy, start with small commitments like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Ask for customers\u2019 contact details<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Invite them to subscribe to a newsletter<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Ask prospects to share your content on social media<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Offer them to sign up for an e-book or webinar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Offering users an opportunity for free trials is another good way for improving engagement. Software company Teamleader <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/success-stories\/teamleader\/\">increased their free trial sign-ups by nearly 13%<\/a> through rigourous A\/B testing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"7. Loss aversion theory\" id=\"7-loss-aversion-theory\" data-menu-id=\"7-loss-aversion-theory\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>7. Loss aversion theory<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Loss aversion theory refers to the tendency of people to avoid losses rather than acquire gains. The negative feelings associated with a loss are twice as powerful as good feelings of a gain. You can effectively use this theory to your advantage if you analyze your audience, learn their fears, and create content that emphasizes the benefits of your brand that eases those fears.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many keyword research tools that can help you better understand what questions people are asking. For instance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Google keyword planner<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Keyword explorer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, many analytics tools can help you find the best way to address your audience\u2019s concerns and understand if you\u2019ve answered their questions well. These tools can help you discover how people interact with your content, what channels do they use, what kind of content works well and what kind of content doesn\u2019t engage them. Use them to make the implementation of loss aversion theory more effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013Web analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Google Trends\u2013Engagement analytics tool for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn, Buffer<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"Wrapping it up\" id=\"wrapping-it-up\" data-menu-id=\"wrapping-it-up\" style=\"text-align:left\"><strong>Wrapping it up<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Using psychological theories is a great way to improve the success of your marketing messages without any additional technologies or big budgets. These theories can help you better understand your customers, understand how they think and create content that cuts through the information overload we\u2019re all bombarded with.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, to successfully do this, one cannot be doing random experiments. Only calibrated experimentation and testing can help achieve improved conversion rates using these theories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"#free-trial\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1256\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png\" alt=\"Banner A\/B Testing\" class=\"wp-image-59883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png 2400w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png?tr=w-1600 1600w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png?tr=w-1366 1366w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png?tr=w-1024 1024w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png?tr=w-768 768w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png?tr=w-640 640w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/08\/End-Banner_7-Powerful-Psychology-Lessons-That-Will-Boost-Your-Digital-Marketing-Game.png?tr=w-375 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a guest post by Alexander Bickov, a Riga-based product designer with over 15 years of UX design and digital marketing experience.
