What Sells in the Present World: Decoding Modern Buyer Behaviour
In a market driven by AI-powered search, social proof, and shifting consumer values, standard cost-benefit messaging no longer drives conversions. This hands-on, activity-based workshop unpacks the psychological and sociological drivers behind modern buying behaviour to help creators and founders build high-value, resonant products.
Participants will explore four key shifts in consumer choice:
- Resourceful Buying: How preferences beyond price influence purchasing decisions.
- Tech-Informed Mindsets: Navigating comparative search, reviews, and brand image in the age of AI.
- Value Attribution: Capitalising on growing consumer demand for sustainability and health benefits.
- Experiential Value: Designing product and service touchpoints that offer experience over pure utility.
Featuring interactive exercises, reflective discussions, and a real-time product evaluation, attendees will dissect their own product offerings and leave with actionable messaging frameworks to better position their brands.
