How AI and Behavioral Science Are Transforming Customer Experience Shep interviews Roger Dooley, keynote speaker and author of The Persuasion Engine. He talks about how AI and neuromarketing tools help businesses predict consumer behavior, measure emotional reactions, and avoid costly customer experience mistakes. This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more: How can businesses use AI to predict customer behavior accurately? How can companies use AI and behavioral science to eliminate customer friction? In what ways can companies use behavioral science to improve customer loyalty? How do customer expectations directly shape customer experience? How can predictive AI prevent negative customer reactions during policy or product changes? Top Takeaways: AI in customer service has moved beyond automation and support. Today, successful companies use AI to understand customer behavior. By tracking engagement like website clicks or scrolling patterns, companies can determine what customers like and dislike. Technology such as eye-tracking, biometric sensors, and AI-powered simulators, at one time available only to a limited number of companies due to cost, is now more accessible to businesses of any size. Customer experience and marketing are deeply connected. Understanding and predicting customer desires isn't just a marketing strategy. It is an important part of delivering a frictionless, positive experience. Customer expectations strongly influence how they perceive the experience. For example, when the average customer is told that a bottle of wine is expensive, they tend to enjoy it more. This is seen in their feedback and even in their brain activity. Small details can have a big impact when it comes to connecting with your customers. When companies remove small perks their customers are used to, the change might put off some loyal customers. Don't underestimate how small gestures can build long-term emotional loyalty. Plus, Shep and Roger talk about insights from The Persuasion Engine. Tune in! Quote: "AI is better than most humans at predicting how people will react emotionally to any communication. Whether you change your loyalty program or alter your customer experience in some way, AI can predict and even prevent negative blowback." About: Roger Dooley is an author, speaker, and McCombs Business School lecturer known for bestselling books like Brainfluence and Friction. His newest book, The Persuasion Engine, discusses how AI democratizes powerful marketing tools for organizations of any size.

In this episode of Brainfluence, host Roger Dooley welcomes back Matt Dixon, founding partner of DCM Insights and co-author of the bestselling "The Challenger Sale." Dixon shares insights from his latest book, The Activator Advantage: What Today's Rainmakers Do Differently, which is rooted in groundbreaking research on how top professionals win and grow client relationships in the increasingly competitive world of professional services. Dixon unpacks the five distinct profiles that partners in fields like law, accounting, and consulting tend to fall into, with a particular focus on the "Activator"—a proactive, well-networked rainmaker who brings new ideas to clients and promotes deep collaboration within firms. Dixon explains that while only about 15–20% of partners naturally exhibit strong activator traits, everyone can learn to adopt key behaviors that set activators apart: maintaining a regular business development cadence, building broad and deep networks, and proactively creating value for clients. He reveals that the biggest client complaint isn't over-contact; instead, it's wishing they heard more from their trusted advisors with fresh insights and opportunities. The conversation offers practical takeaways for both leaders and individuals in professional services who want to move beyond waiting for the phone to ring and instead, become indispensable partners in their clients' success.

Tune in now to learn from the brilliant mind of Mike Michalowicz! Show Notes, Resources, Transcript: https://www.rogerdooley.com/mike-michalowicz-23-clockwork/ Mike Michalowicz is a well-versed expert in business studies. He has immersed himself in studying businesses of all sizes and strongly believes in the principle that these enterprises primarily operate on monthly cycles - from revenue generation and service provision, to employee management and book closing. One interesting theory he posits is the unique ability of a business leader to take a four-week break while ensuring the business runs smoothly in their absence. He suggests that if a business runs successfully during this period, theoretically, it underscores that the leader could step away indefinitely. In Michalowicz's view, this isn't a mark of redundancy but rather an opportunity to elevate oneself to a more strategic thinking role. His business acumen and insightful theories make him a powerful resource for business leaders and owners.

Key Takeaways ➥ The definition of Neuromarketing is any use of our understanding of how our brains work to make marketing better. ➥ An example of a cognitive bias is “People hate feeling a sense of loss.” They hate losing something, and that often outweighs the gain. ➥ Social proof is also an example of a cognitive bias which can be incorporated to your website and Ads copy. Some people call it the bandwagon effect when you see other people doing something, you're more likely to do that thing yourself.

Tom Peters is an author and legendary business thinker who has written 19 books. His new title is Tom Peters' Compact Guide to Excellence. It's a small book packed with short bites of wisdom curated by Tom to encourage a humanistic approach to business. In this episode, he explains why the most important decisions in business are promotions, and that often managers don't spend enough time on them or know how to do them correctly. He shares a technique for choosing the best candidate he learned in a conversation with an Indian general. The entire episode is packed with Tom's plain-spoken, hard-hitting wisdom. You'll learn why a company's front-line managers are the most important group in the firm. He explains why big companies rarely do things right, and that mid-sized companies are often the most valuable contributors to society and the economy.

In business, we have a bias for busyness. Doing something is always better than doing nothing, to most of us. Indeed, Brainfluence guest and management expert Tom Peters famously proclaimed "a bias for action" to be a key component of excellence. But, is it possible that doing nothing could sometimes be the best strategy? In today's episode, we welcome Jinny Uppal, who has studied the science of action-taking and discovered that constantly being busy can be counter-productive. Jinny has compiled her research into a book called IN/ACTION: Rethinking the Path to Results, in which she argues that taking breaks and being mindful can lead to more sustainable growth than constantly striving for progress. As a business consultant, investor, author, and speaker, Jinny now helps others achieve their goals without burning out. In this conversation, Jinny shares her own experience of shedding the busyness bias and embracing a more strategic approach to success, and explains the science behind the action bias and how we can motivate ourselves to overcome it.
Can you be authentically charismatic? Renowned behavioral investigator Vanessa Van Edwards has always been fascinated by the 'science of people'. A (famously) socially awkward person, Vanessa's first book Captivate, covered the problems we face in communicating with other people and provided science-backed ways to overcome them. Now with her new book, Cues: Master the Secret Language of Charismatic Communication , Vanessa helps us level up our communication skills by revealing the secrets behind charismatic communication. Show notes and resources: https://www.rogerdooley.com/vanessa-van-edwards-cues/ In today's episode of Brainfluence, Vanessa uncovers the two things that create charismatic personalities – warmth and competence. Competence cues involve the numbers, data, awards, certifications, or degrees that validate your knowledge. Warmth cues involve personal stories, anecdotes, case studies, gifts, funny videos, or the like that add trust, reliability, friendliness, and fondness to your persona. The balance between the two is a joy for our brains. Vanessa discusses the cues to use and the cues to avoid in our communication. Going in-depth about the four primary cues – words, body language, vocal factors, and imagery, she explains how to employ them in speeches and meetings. She also explains how our communication cues have changed since the pandemic began and how to express ourselves effectively despite these changes.
Loretta Graziano Breuning, Ph.D. is the author of Habits of a Happy Brain: Retrain Your Brain to Boost Your Serotonin, Dopamine, Oxytocin, and Endorphin Levels. She founded the Inner Mammal Institute to help people build new neural pathways to turn on their happy chemicals in new ways. (www.InnerMammalInstitute.org) As a Professor of Management at California State University, and a mom, Loretta was not convinced by prevailing theories of human motivation. While researching alternatives, she uncovered the brain chemistry we share with animals. She learned that each happy chemical evolved to motivate a specific survival behavior, not to make you feel good all the time for no reason. Then everything made sense, and she began creating resources to spread this knowledge: books, videos, blogs, podcasts, infographics, slide shows, social media, and a training program. Loretta's work has helped thousands of people "make peace with the animal inside." And she still marvels every day at the overlap between a wildlife documentary and the lyrics to a love song. Dr. Breuning's work has been translated into Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, French, Turkish, and German. She has been quoted in Forbes, NPR, the Wall St. Journal, Fox, Time, NBC, Psychology Today, Cosmopolitan, Real Simple, and Psychologies. Her podcast is "The Happy Brain," and she's been a guest on many podcasts, including Almost 30, James Altucher, Brainfluence, Recovery Unscripted, Fat Burning Man, Humans 2.0, and Yogabody.

Choice architecture, the way choices are presented to people, is often overlooked as an important influence on both big and small decisions. One of the world's most recognized researchers on decision-making, Eric Johnson, has studied choice architecture and its effects on behavior. Understanding how we make choices and improving their presentation helps us design better processes for many important situations. We are all choice architects, Eric says. Show Notes, Transcript, Resources: https://www.rogerdooley.com/eric-johnson-choice/ Book: https://amzn.to/3Jp7abM Eric joins Brainfluence to dissect our roles as choice architects and explain how to change our choice architectures to arrive at better decisions. A well-designed choice architecture helps you to look beyond the easiest and most accessible paths or memory-based preferences. Eric also explains how default choices are formed, the 3 E's that make them, and how to not be blinded by them. You'll learn about how choice architecture applies to our most basic decisions in life, including choosing a dress to wear or voting for a political party. You'll also learn to make better decisions when faced with an overwhelming number of options. In a nutshell, you'll understand that the clearer you can see your choices, the better your decision-making becomes.
What is “conation?” According to seasoned marketing and strategy leader Sandeep Dayal, conation is incredibly important in the marketing world. It refers to the desire or will of people to perform an action – it helps marketers assess what causes a customer to opt-in or out of a buying decision. Notes & Resources: https://www.rogerdooley.com/sandeep-dayal-branding/ Sandeep Dayal joins Brainfluence to explain purchase decisions, brand identity, brand positioning, customer-centricity, and customer experience for brands that want to find and sell to their audiences ethically. He breaks down the process of a customer's buying decision, the three factors that affect the designing of empathetic brands, and the three principles of self-regulation for marketers, among other things. Recognition of the need to optimize customer experience continues to grow. As Sandeep explains, the better a customer's mind is familiar with your brand's offerings, the better the chances are they would buy from you. Make an effort to get to know your customer – understand their pain points, questions, and concerns, and align your marketing strategy to find them the answers to their most persistent questions.
Businesses today face the challenge of balancing their core values with the realities of the digital age — an age that has customers expect 24/7 access to brands. Surprisingly, the brands that put their customers first have survived even the worst phases of the pandemic, according to best-selling author and returning guest on Brainfluence, John Jantsch. Notes & Resources: https://www.rogerdooley.com/john-jantsch-engine/ John advocates customer-centric marketing and brings us lessons from his most recent book, The Ultimate Marketing Engine: 5 Steps to Ridiculously Consistent Growth. He talks about the importance of focusing less on generating “more” leads. Rather, you should enhance the buying experience of your existing customers to generate organic referrals and leads. He explains how strategically (and authentically) partnering with your top 20% customers does your business more good than investing in lead generation. John also reveals his 5-step marketing process that helps discover and map businesses to their ideal customers. Consistent business growth in today's times depends almost entirely on the quality of customer experience offered. Improve it and your customers will take your business to the next level before you know it. Tune in to the conversation to learn more!
Dorie Clark joins us today on Brainfluence discuss her new book, The Long Game and to explain why a long-term strategy is essential to help us achieve our goals in life. In this era of instant gratification, it's hard to wait until a business strategy works or the results of practice start showing results. But, Dorie notes, success is a product of long-term consistency for example, a one-percentage daily improvement (as James Clear explained in Atomic Habits). This approach requires you avoid frequent changes. Rather, you must keep going and stick to a strategy that works for you. Creating mental space is essential on your path to success. If you stuff all your hours with work, not heeding the long-term implications of constant jam-packed days, you will never know if you're heading where you want to. Listen to today's conversation as Dorie and Roger discuss many more topics, including why you must create room for whitespace in your calendar and how to do that even if you don't have schedule flexibility.

Kevin's current title at Wired is "Senior Maverick," a designation I'm sure you will agree is appropriate.

Minisode 43 Neuro Influence and Persuasion Leveraging colors, fonts, packaging and more to neurological influence people to choose you and your products. Neuro-marketing. Where should a model be looking on ad? Who should use a heatmap? Do you know what time it is? It's Minisode Episode 43 of a doctor's perspective, podcast. Alright, today's episode, The is the science of social media, neuromarketing, Episode 115. Forgo, I wanted to let you know also been listening to a side hustle podcast, so I'll be talking about, later on, there was a great episode about like, options trading, I'm not even going to try to summarize that one. I don't know that's above my pay grade right there, that it was called side hustle show, that was good. And then somebody else turned me on to a podcast called choose FI, financial independence, really going? The neurology of marketing is super important. It can conjure up certain emotions, you know, emotions are what sells more than logic. So your product designs your packaging, you got to have colors and style that can leverage your audience's feeling. All right, I can do that with colors. You can do it with a very simple brand. And I think radio says Apple, but there's more than just Apple, there's a lot of brands that just they're very basic there, Chris, there's a lot of news, a lot of white space to convey expensively, if you will, for that matter, you could have a brand like bubbly and happy in things like fruit loops, you know, just like obviously a setup for kids and fun. And then you can think of something like, what's that place called White Black, they have a more fancy in the mall is got a more contemporary fancy logo and styling about it, that makes you think I'm going to spend some money to buy some clothes here, they did recommend a book called brain influence, you can check that out brain influence fonts, whether it's online or in your packaging a little bit more online is what we're talking about right now. and easy to read font makes you think it's more like a common task, which could be what you're going for. If you need more memory recall, you might have the more complex font, I was just checking out Episode 115 show notes. Brainfluence 100 Ways to Persuade and Convince Consumers with Neuromarketing And they have like a list of what those mean in a little more detail. But a complex font would have more swirls in it some more complicated font to read a little bit. And so it kind of stands out memory recall, already for the images, who said this before, it's a good thing to repeat… if you're gonna have a person in the ad, you make sure they're looking at whatever it is you want the audience to look at. So they're looking out of the ad as not helping you. You want to be looking at the product. If you have a book, have them looking at the book, and they'll people will look directly their eyes, where their eyes going to the book, there it is a boom, or the coupon code 20% off. That's where they are as our awesome. Of course, I'm smiling as well. It's a mood booster. So definitely have them smiling. And one thing they mentioned, I spent a good bit on. If you have an e-commerce site, or you're wondering where people are going on your site, when they're visiting, maybe not get enough phone calls. They're not using that live chat feature as much as you expected they would. You've got a whole bunch of articles, and you spent a lot of time on them. And you're like, man, are you people reading this, of course, writing articles is good for like SEO and Google. So that's a different viewpoint. But if you want to know where people go on your site, and a previous episode, we talked about it actually, the three things that you need to have. It's called heat mapping. couple places like all crazy, AIG, Zoho ZOHOR, mouse flow, those are three sites, blue, they're all paid. But you can analyze your site to see what people are doing.
