Too much choice isn’t always a good thing. Research shows that people are more likely to buy when presented with only 6 flavors, versus 24!

Using the word “because” in your request can increase compliance by over 25%!

When positioning an incentive for effort, the mere mention of money can reduce that effort by over 30%!
