By adopting a values-based approach to communication, we can challenge our unconscious assumptions and gain predictive insights into what truly engages, motivates, and inspires our audience. Listen to the full episode to hear:How our values drive everyday choices, large and small–How demographic data perpetuates stereotypes and hinders social changeHow acknowledging our common values helps build consensus and move us forwardHow the core 56 values break down into nuanced and actionable definitions and interpretationsThree key questions to begin uncovering people's values Learn more about David Allison:WebsiteValuegraphicsConnect on LinkedInThe Death of Demographics: Valuegraphic Marketing for a Values-Driven WorldLearn more about Mary Knox Miller:Thought Leader MediaConnect on LinkedIn

In this episode of GatherGeeks, BizBash chairman and founder David Adler sits down with David Allison, author of The Death of Demographics and a globally recognized researcher known for coining the term "valuegraphics."

What if brands stop guessing what their target audiences want? What if there was a way to turn values into a measurable business metric? In this episode, the brilliant David Allison joins us to talk about Valuegraphics, the method he created to understand how people make decisions based on their values. David is a Speaker, Human Values Expert, Behavioral Scientist, Author, and Founder of the Valuegraphics Project. In his latest book, "The Death of Demographics: Valuegraphic Marketing for a Values-Driven World," David explains why demographics (people's age, gender, income, etc.) and psychographics (preferences, liked content, online behavior, etc.) are ineffective to create a genuine connection with target audiences, and using Valuegraphics to create values-driven marketing strategies is the definitive solution to the inaccuracy of demographic-based profiles. Throughout this episode, David talks about why values-driven organizations stand out and develop more meaningful connections with their audiences and how Valuegraphics can help brands develop personas with feelings and emotions.

Nutrition and obesity-related research are scientific topics which should be executed with the same degree of rigor, transparency, and truthful communication as in any other area of science. However, this type of research may be weaker than it should be due to flaws in the types of questions asked, the design of studies, the execution of studies, the analysis of resulting data, the interpretation and communication of studies and results. This weakens the overall quality of the literature and may lead to heightened distrust of nutrition science, which has been shown to be more severe than for other domains of inquiry. Tune into this episode to learn about: ·       an overview of various aspects of research including selection of questions, design of studies, execution of studies, analysis of data, and interpretation and communication of findings ·       the quality of existing obesity related research and challenges regarding this type of research in general ·       examples of where research has gone wrong and suggestions for improvement ·       what the evidence for obesity treatment and prevention shows and suggestions for prioritizing next steps, future research and treatments ·       why evidence in the field of nutrition and obesity-related research seems to be more often distorted and distrusted ·       specific steps to make obesity research more rigorous, probative, valuable, and more transparently and truthfully communicated Full shownotes and resources at: https://soundbitesrd.com/240       

In today's episode of the Digital Marketing Podcast, Ciaran interviews David Allison, author of The Death of Demographics. Where have we been going wrong with demographics all these years? We insist on looking at people on the outside. We put a fence around a group of people and think we understand who they are but we don't, we understand what they are, and that's not enough to influence people's future buying decisions. Humans say yes to things because it aligns with their values. It is behind every decision that we make, so it's important we understand the shared values of our customers so we know how to get the right people in the room. Listen in to this special episode to hear all about David's mission and understand for yourself why Ciaran loved this interview so much!

David Allison is creator of the Valuegraphics database, and as of recording this interview, is closing in on his one millionth in-depth survey making his dataset iron clad. Allison is the first person in history to have built a tool allowing us to precisely communicate and position our message in a way others are neurologically wired to hear and understand.  Much of failed startups, wars, and broken relationships stem from bad communication resulting from misalignment and misunderstanding of others' values. Allison believes the valuegraphics databse is a great tool for marketers, allowing them to tap into new markets in a way not possible historically, but also believes this can change the world.  Traditionally, we've relied on poor demographic data to understand groups. But demographic groups rarely agree on anything. What groups do agree? Groups identified by values.  See the full show notes and a video message from Allison to listeners of the show at https://justinkbrady.com/david-allison-death-of-demographics

Valuegraphics is the new blueprint for customer segmentation.

Our values are the very core of our daily life and thank God someone's taken the time to figure them all out. They've done all the hard work for you! In this show, David Allison, the architect of this revolutionary new targeting system explains how he's identified 56 core values for the human race and how to push each of the buttons - this is unmissable! His new book - 'The Death of Demographics' provides a complete makeover of the marketing targeting process and explains in simple terms, how to make sure that you're maximizing your budgets and reaching your true customers, every time.

Are you paying attention to who your customers are? Or are you only paying attention to what they are?

[REPLAY: The Mindful Marketer #LinkedIn Live featuring David Allison – Episode 69] What is values-based marketing and why does it matter? In our community, CEOs and CMOs are reporting LONGER sales cycles, ineffective messaging, and customer churn.  Based on the ValueGraphics team's assessment of over 750,000 surveys globally, we have learned that demographics and psychographics are ineffective at knowing what your customers want. (10% or less effective, to be exact).  They do not help you uncover what your audience values, and they fall short of predicting how your audience will behave. In this dynamic conversation with customer research pioneer, David Allison, you will hear highlights from his just-released book, “The Death of Demographics.” In addition, you'll hear:  The limitations of traditional demographics research. The power of the 15-point archetype quiz—and how to use it. Three insightful questions you can ask your customers to discover their values. A 45-day action plan to turn your audience insights into marketing actions. You'll love the healthy banter and audience questions in this episode. Enjoy part 2 of Season 1, where we explore the new rules of content strategy. Check out these show notes, compliments of ChatGPT and David's sense of humor:   From David:    “Further to our conversation right now, I asked chat GPT to do this:   Write three short stories about mindfulness in marketing. In one of them mention Lisa Nirell, host of The Mindful Marketer. In one of them mention David Allison, founder of Valuegraphics. And in one of them, mention another famous figure who is a rethinking marketing in a more mindful way.   And in less than a minute it gave me this:   Lisa Nirell, host of ‘The Mindful Marketer,' shares her experience of using mindfulness in marketing. She explains how being present and aware in each moment helped her to make better decisions and connect with her audience in a more meaningful way. Nirell emphasizes that mindfulness allows marketers to approach their work with intention and purpose, leading to more effective and impactful campaigns. David Allison, founder of ValueGraphics, rethinks the role of mindfulness in marketing by focusing on the values of the target audience. According to Allison, marketers who understand their audience's values can craft more meaningful and relevant messaging that resonates with them. He believes that mindfulness in marketing is about being present and aware of the values and motivations of your target audience, allowing you to create campaigns that are truly impactful. Another famous figure who is rethinking marketing in a more mindful way is Simon Sinek, author of "Start with Why." Sinek argues that the most successful brands and organizations are those that have a clear sense of purpose and values. He believes that marketers should focus on inspiring and empowering their audience, rather than simply trying to sell them a product. Sinek's approach to marketing emphasizes the importance of creating meaningful connections and building trust with your audience, through mindfulness and purpose-driven campaigns.   Now for the serious announcements: Don't miss a future show – we livestream on YouTube and LinkedIn on the first Friday of each month.

S2 E3 Podcast Title: District Attorney Ben David Speaks  On July 30, 2006, 34-year-old Allison Jackson Foy is last seen in Wilmington, North Carolina leaving the Junction Billiards Sports Bar where she spent the night drinking with a friend. The bartender calls a cab for Allison, the cab driver shows up at the pub around 2:00 am. Foy never returns home and has not been heard from since.

On today's episode, host Katya Allison is joined by David Allison, Founder of Valuegraphics, to learn about a more effective way to create a targeted marketing strategic plan.The concept of valuegraphics offers marketers some new perspectives on market segmentation:Individual values inform purchasing decisions more than traditional demographics like age or gender.Values may seem abstract but can be quantified and analyzed just like any other data point.Understanding personal values can build customer personas that are less clichéd; therefore, more effective.Because values inform action, building valuegraphic profiles can help marketers better predict potential customer behavior.Despite their value, valuegraphics should be viewed as a starting point for market research and planning, not a silver bullet solution.For David, understanding who a person is starts with understanding their values, and that knowledge helps drive marketing strategy.David Allison | Twitter - https://twitter.com/DavidAllisonIncValuegraphics | Website - https://valuegraphics.com/Valuegraphics | Twitter - https://twitter.com/valuegraphics_?lang=enWe Are All the Same Age Now | https://valuegraphics.com/booksKatya Allison | LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/katyaallison/GRIN | LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/grin-inc-/If you enjoyed today's show, please leave a review and subscribe so you never miss an episode.

The operating system for being human is a lot simpler than you'd imagine. We are all driven by our values. But what are these values?

This week, Melissa talks to David Allison, the trailblazing founder of the Valuegraphics Project.About David:David Allison is the Global Values Leader, Human Behavior Expert, and Founder of the Valuegraphics Project. After decades in marketing, David recognized that demographics weren't working.

Questions Answered In Full Episode “When someone undergoes liposuction or other surgery that removes adipose tissue, is there a sudden reduction in leptin levels? While this may reduce leptin resistance, could the drop in leptin lead to increased hunger over time?” “What is the current research around how chronic energy restriction (or following crash diets) affects appetite hormones and/ or appetite regulation long term? Is there a physiological mechanism influencing overeating attributable to appetite dysregulation caused by chronic dieting? I ask as this is something I am often tackling in my nutrition consultancy but research in biochemical and physiological mechanisms seems lacking.” “Can you talk about the conditions of anorexia and morbid obesity and how they essentially defy the rules of metabolic compensation? In other words- I understand anorexia to be a mental health condition where the individual starves themselves with a purpose to control weight. And morbid obesity being excessive consumption despite over fatness, etc. If the body has these numerous mechanisms by which calorie restriction or calorie over- consumption results in these compensatory processes-driving us to eat more/less slow us down/speed us up, and many more; do these individuals not “hear” these signals or are they just adept at ignoring them or is it that their bodies have lost the ability to compensate for their under or over consumption? Additionally, can anyone become anorexic or morbidly obese? Or is it merely genetics?” “Why do some SDRIs (serotonin–dopamine reuptake inhibitors) and serotonin precursors reduce hunger/appetite? E.g. 5-HTP and Wellbutrin (Bupropion)” “Question about the ideal weight program: As an iOS developer, my instinct is to assume determinism and quantifiability of the entire universe. I believe this to be fundamentally true. But what is hypothetically possible differs from what we can realistically know. I worry that attempts like yours to quantify some seemingly qualitative measures are doomed. I have similar concerns about happiness research. How do you reassure yourself you can really construct an algorithm that deciphers the “ideal weight program” for any given user – do you rely on averages?” a. Quick explanation of the ideal weight program “In 2018 a poster was presented at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience titled ‘The human brain microbiome; there are bacteria in our brains!' which showed bacteria apparently penetrating and inhabiting the cells of healthy human brains. While the work was preliminary, have you heard of any further work in this area? What is your opinion on the possibility that, if bacteria do inhabit the brain, they could play a part in appetite regulation and/or obesity similar to how the gut microbiome can affect our health?” “It seems like there are significant differences in policies put forth between researchers from biomedical backgrounds and ones from public health policy backgrounds. Dr [David] Allison touched on this during recent interviews, noting that there is very little evidence regarding the efficacy of upstream obesity prevention interventions, such community gardens, combatting food deserts, nutrition education, and cooking classes. On the other hand, governments are increasingly turning to such interventions, as well as policies such as front of pack labelling (Canada, 2022), nutrition facts tables, calorie labelling on menus, as well as the aforementioned ones. Given your research on determinants of health and obesity, what are some of the most promising interventions to prevent NCD morbidity, as well as stones unturned in public health policy? Would you agree with individuals such as Dr Allison that in our current environment, the only efficacious interventions are drugs and bariatric surgery?” Question based on your debate on JRE with Gary Taubes: “Would the insulinogenic effect of protein, specifically something like whey protein which causes an insulin response, be something that should automatically refute Taubes arguments about insulins inherent role in increasing adiposity? Second, would overeating on any macronutrient increase insulin simply because you are eating more food (i.e. hypercaloric)?” “Are there best practices for the maximum duration someone should spend in fat loss (or weight gain) phases? Or perhaps an optimal ratio of fat loss phase duration to “maintenance” phase duration? For example, should fat loss phases be for a maximum of 12 weeks followed by maintenance of at least equal duration before resuming a fat loss phase? “I'm a naturally skinny guy who helps other naturally skinny guys bulk up. I think it largely comes down to a blunted pleasure response to food, smaller stomachs, and/or higher NEAT. A lot of us seem to be taller and more thinly built, too. But why do you think things are things so different for us? Why is it so hard to gain weight? And what can we do about it?” To subscribe to Premium (and get the full episode) go here.
