Anchoring is a psychological bias that overemphasizes the first piece of information received.
Here's how its used:

More value = more sales
It's common to see pricing options that comes in three's.
One of the options is a "decoy" or a fake designed to increase sales of a cheaper plan.
For example:
The presence of the £1680 plan increases the sales of the £560 because its relatively cheaper.
Companies allow partial use of their products in exchange for creating an account.
Typically, top features are restricted or the user cannot have their experience ad free.
Free versions are effective at "warming up" prospects to become paid users.
Divide the monthly or annual prices by the number of days in that period to show the daily price, or smallest number possible.
Also, compare pricing to everyday objects like a cup of coffee to make bigger costs more palatable.
Lower number = less friction.
Prices ending in 9 cause a wire trip in the human brain.
It's been proven that prices ending in 9s lead to ATLEAST an 8% increase in sales.
Consumers will even pay MORE for the same product if the price ends in 9s compared another number.
Price certain items below cost to increase traffic/visibility in order to sell higher margin products.
Grocery stores often price milk (a necessity) below profitability.
Shoppers will see/need other items while in the store increasing their total order value.
Is a strategy to harmonize supply and demand to maximize profit based on inventory or time availability.
Concert venues, airlines, and hotels employ this approach to ensure they sell all their inventory or get max value for highly coveted tickets/rooms.
Set an initial high price and then reduce during a sale or discount.
The goal is to create urgency because this GREAT price won't always be available.
The high-price remains visible to keep the perceived value high persuading to take advantage.
Consumers, especially Millennials and Gen-Z, don't purchase solely on price.
They support companies that share their beliefs and vision for the future.
For example:
Amazon displays certain products as "climate pledge friendly," making price less relevant.
Rather than selling multiple items at different prices it's more effective to combine them into a single offer.
Usually, bundled items complement one another and provide some cost savings.
The convenience and savings of bundled products increases sales.
Is a short-term financing option that allows customers to purchase a product now, but pay in installments.
It reduces the pain of purchasing by lowering the out-of-pocket cost at the time of checkout.
By 2025 BNPL will be a $680B industry!

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x
The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x
Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x
The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x
It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
As someone\u2019s who\u2019s read the book, this review strikes me as tremendously unfair. It mostly faults Adler for not writing the book the reviewer wishes he had! https://t.co/pqpt5Ziivj
