    The Psychology Of Sales: How To Beat That Red And White Tag

    Why are we wired to be so attracted to sales? Buy one get one free, 50% off, clearance! Whatever the sale, we, as humans, flock to them! 

    How can we curb that hit of dopamine we get when we land a great discount or sale. 

    In this episode of The Quicky, we speak to the experts to find out why sometimes we can't resist that sale, even when we know we need to conserve our cash flow.

    Here's What Makes You A Good Colleague...And Also A Bad One

    Over a third of our life is spent working, which means we spend a lot of time with our colleagues. But do you know what makes you a good, bad or down right annoying colleague? 

    Do you break the headphone rule or bring in stinky lunches to the shared kitchens? Or are you the one everyone wants to get coffee with and brings all the goss? 

    In this episode of The Quicky we find out exactly what workplace etiquettes you should follow for a harmonious work place.
