Marketing MBA: Psychological ‘Anchoring’ and How It Affects Purchase Decisions – Dr Brent Coker

What people see before affects their decisions to purchase, through a process called “Anchoring”
So when you think about it, the internet is linear. People can go forward and see something new, or go backwards. So what? Well, it affects their decision making.

In this episode I explain the concept of psychological anchoring, and how you can use it to increase engagement and purchase.
