  Behavioral Economics Sales Training

...Improve customer acquisition and retention by understanding how people really make decisions...

A baseball bat and ball together cost $1.10. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much is the ball? 10 cents, right? Fifty percent of Princeton students tested said so. 

The 10 cent answer is a result of instinctive thinking. Reasoning gives the correct answer: 5 cents. But reasoning is hard work. Most people make most decisions instinctively. 

Behavioral economics applies psychology to understand how people really make economic decisions. Instinctive reasoning, loss aversion, framing and confirmation bias are a few of many insights into buyer behavior that your sales force needs to know about. 

Behavioral economics is the next generation sales technique. Salespeople that don’t use behavioral economics will lose to those that do.
