Instructor: Jamie Turner

Level of Complexity: Intermediate/Advanced
9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Several years ago, Williams-Sonoma introduced a bread maker for $275. When sales of the bread maker didn’t take off, they introduced a second bread maker that was slightly better than the $275 bread maker … but they charged $550 for it. What happened after they introduced the $550 bread maker? Sales of the $275 bread maker went through the roof. This happened because Williams-Sonoma knew about Relative Pricing which is a way to help consumers re-frame how they think about the cost of products. Bottom Line: Consumers behave in ways that are sometimes surprising. And businesses that understand these behaviors outperform their competitors. In this fun, engaging, action-oriented speech, internationally recognized author, professor, and CNN contributor Jamie Turner will take everything you know about marketing and turn it on its head. This is a top-to-bottom look at consumer behavior, insight development, and strategic thinking. You won’t learn about simple tactics in this session. Instead, you’ll learn how to re-wire your brain so that you can be more innovative, fresh, and inventive when you develop your next marketing campaign.

Many companies can ultimately achieve more. The improvement is attainable fairly quickly and has proven to be sustainable. Two percent is the difference between mediocre profit results and stellar performance!
