Customer behavior is the heart of what drives enterprises. But the majority of sales, marketing and product design organizations don’t know which cognitive biases to target or how to design bias triggers into customer communications and experiences.
The body of evidence is overwhelming—rational education is not enough to change behavior. To break through from understanding to action requires a full-brain approach to learning, especially for your most educated customers.
The negative impact of mental shortcuts doesn’t end with customers—it affects us all, even our teams. To play our best role for our organizations we need to understand what cognitive biases we are bringing to work—and how to work around them.
Tomorrow’s medicines require today’s participation. And yet many clinical trials struggle to efficiently recruit participants, especially from under-represented groups. Cognitive and behavioral science can change this, strengthening the results.
All good commercial behavioral science starts with a robust hypothesis set. Combining our proprietary dataset with your prior insights, we work together to map which biases may be influencing your behavioral objective.
In our work, we have seen that different biases are active in different situations and with different customers. Using a range of diagnostic methods, we identify which biases are actually active so that you can design interventions with confidence.
Our team is uniquely built to close the actionability gap. We specialize in specific, actionable efforts to help you design bias triggers into your communications and experiences, and we have built a proprietary library of bias-in-action examples.
ZS has robust experience in quantifying impact to aid business decisions and drive growth. We bring that full suite of knowledge into practice when assessing and optimizing the impact of your commercial behavioral science interventions.
