Comments on: Why People Bought The White iPhone… When They Wanted The Black One https://socialtriggers.com/the-art-of-choosing/ Internet Marketing Strategy Sat, 19 Oct 2019 08:06:45 +0000 hourly 1 By: Mark Thomas https://socialtriggers.com/the-art-of-choosing/#comment-15920 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 21:49:58 +0000 http://socialtriggers.com/?p=3020#comment-15920 Once again Mr Halpern, you got me through a grueling run this morning.

In particular, I found your discussion on how people react positively to “loaded” choices rather interesting.

So if you are presenting your readers/customers/clients with options, you can help them on their way to making a decision by keeping the option count low and by providing an expert, but honest, opinion on the most suitable one.

Oh, by the way my iPhone is black as I have really no preference on colour or if every one else has the same, although I would be miffed if everyone one in my street went out and bought the same Porsche as me.

My actions from this podcast are to review the categories on my sites and make them more manageable while continuing to catch up on your back catalogue.

All the best

Yeah, the headline was shrewd, Great work!

I’m definitely going black this time, like I wanted to in the first place with the last white 4s I bought ;0)~

I am finally catching up with my Social Triggers Insider reading & listening. While I’ve been traveling recently, I’ve been reading this book that is oh so relevant to this discussion: Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman http://amzn.to/HAm225 If you’ve already posted your commentary on this incredible book, can you send me a link? If not, would love to hear what you think. Thanks for all you do!

Heidi

I used to have the black one — but then I got awesomely hip. Now I’m all about the white. I also got the white iBook when they used to make them. And the week before I bought the iPhone I bought a fixie bike. Yeah — I’m THAT guy.

And I’m sure I just spent way too much time talking about something that was never really the heart of the conversation. But I just had to comment. That’s how much I love my white iPhone!

Thanks for the blog, by the way. Learning a lot. Or maybe not a lot if I just spent all this time defending the color my iPhone. 🙂

Well played…and keep up the awesome work!

David John Hall

Keep up the amazing work. The psychological side of trading, in my market has an immense impact on individuals decision making, when investing.

Well done.
