Neuroscience of Storytelling for Marketers with Seth Erickson of Storify Agency-auphonic
Most people think stories and storytelling are just for entertainment. However, this is a misconception. Stories contain data built in a pattern that repeats itself in every human's daily experience. This pattern is known as "The Hero's Journey." For instance, some days you're storming the castle, and some days you're chained up in the dungeon. Either way, we are all heroes on our journey, experiencing the same pattern in our own lives. This shared experience is why "The Hero's Journey" resonates with everyone across cultures, religions, ages, and sexes. We all live in it, and we all know it. When you combine the knowledge of a familiar pattern with what current neuroscience is telling us, you begin to realize a few things. The brain is very similar to a computer. Because the brain is similar to a computer, it has an OS Since there's an OS, there are also apps and firewalls. If there are apps, then there's a way to code applications. So, storytelling and "The Heroes Journey" become more than a way to entertain people. It also becomes the key to how you code applications on the customer's mind. When you connect the dots, it gives you a way to hack humans. At Storify, Seth believes any startup can learn how to tell better stories. His startups know how to communicate better, make their value crystal clear to the marketplace, and outpace the competition. What you’ll learn What is storytelling? The difference between marketing and storytelling Neuroscience of storytelling Brain scans Simulation How important as people in stories? The significant objects project How does emotion play into storytelling? How do use the power of emotion without becoming monsters?!

Amazon Aggregator Dirty Tricks When Buying Your FBA Business
There has probably never been a better time to sell a quality Private label or customer product business. The meteoric rise of Amazon aggregators since about 2020 has meant a jump in the competition for buyers of Amazon-based businesses. What does this mean? Well, an Amazon business with the same exact profit might be worth twice now what is was worth 2 years ago. However, this buying frenzy can lead to private label business owners making a series of mistakes when it comes to selling their businesses. In the normal course of M & A (mergers and acquisitions), both the seller and buyer of the business understand the process. But in the e-commerce space, private label business owners with no understanding of mergers often sit across from educated buyers with Stanford business degrees. There is a knowledge gap that is potentially dangerous for the business owners. An unwise business seller can end up exaggerating that danger to themselves. That could show up in relation to the business itself, commonly in dodgy financial data, exaggerated revenue claims, faking reviews or black hat operating tactics. It could also be around the deal itself. Taking renegotiation personally, allowing a deal structure that is not right for you or allowing the buyers to force exclusivity on you are some classic errors.   Listen to today’s podcast to find out what these errors are - and how to avoid them. What you’ll learn Be clear and understand it’s all about the buyer getting the best possible deal - it’s business! Lowball offers after Due diligence checking LOI that looks good and giving buyer exclusivity Looking into Unreasonable stability fund Understanding Buyers That Are Not Like This Be honest about why you’re selling Letting go of your staff - but not bringing it up People working for them not very professional in an interview   Resources mentioned Aepic Sellers
