    If you're still marketing the old way — guessing what customers want, hoping they'll buy, and watching your competition pull ahead — you're leaving massive money on the table. In today's hyper-competitive world, the winners don't just sell products… they understand the human brain. Amazon didn't become the most valuable company on earth by accident. They mastered the science of influence. Neuromarketing reveals exactly how the brain makes buying decisions — 95% of which happen subconsciously. Instead of relying on surveys or a gut feeling, you measure real brain activity (through eye-tracking, EEG, and fMRI) to trigger instant desire, trust, and action. Amazon lives and breathes this every single day. They don't guess — they know precisely which words, colors, and experiences light up the reward centers in your customers' brains and make them click "Buy Now" without hesitation. maximizeyourinfluece.com

  5. The Blind Spot To Goals - The Science of Success

    The Blind Spot To Goals - The Science of Success

    Goal setting isn't just a feel-good exercise—it's the fuel that propels top performers to 10X their results. Mastering goal setting gives you the edge to influence outcomes, close deals faster, and skyrocket your personal and professional growth. As Brian Tracy teaches, success is no accident—it's the direct result of setting specific, actionable goals that drive relentless action. Without it, you're drifting; with it, you're unstoppable. But hold on—goal setting isn't all sunshine and rainbows. If mishandled, it can backfire, leading to burnout, bad shortcuts, and a narrow focus that ignores life's bigger picture. Recent studies show that failing at goals can tank motivation and trigger negative emotions, with participants reporting a drop in mood after setbacks. Even in education, performance goals can turn students into "emotionless learning machines," eroding authenticity and self-perception. What is the key? Set goals the right way, or risk the dark side derailing your motivation. Want to know the other steps and pitfalls of goal setting? Tune into the Maximize Your Influence podcast for the science of goal setting.  Listen to The Blind Spot To Goals - The Science of Success.  Don't just set goals—conquer them. Subscribe, listen, and let's increase your success for 2026! MaximizeYourInfluence.com

    What Spam Teaches Us About Influence And Human Nature

    There is a free, billion-dollar persuasion laboratory running 24/7 that most influencers completely ignore - and it's teaching the truth about human nature. Top persuaders don't guess what works; they study what already moves millions of people every day. That laboratory is your spam folder. Once you understand the brutal psychological triggers spam exploits - and how to adapt them ethically - you will never struggle to get attention, build desire, or close deals again. This is how you influence, negotiate, and sell at the highest level. Spam exposes the raw buttons of human nature—greed, fear, curiosity, trust—and when you adapt those triggers ethically, you stop begging for attention and start commanding it. www.maximizeyourinfluence.com

  7. The Hidden Reason Prospects Say "I'll Think About It"

    The Hidden Reason Prospects Say "I'll Think About It"

    There is one invisible enemy that destroys more sales, negotiations, and influence attempts than any objection, competitor, or recession combined. Top producers don't suffer from it because they've learned to crush it. That enemy is Decision Fatigue—and once you understand and conquer it, you will influence faster, and negotiate better with less effort than ever before. Here's the brutal truth: Decision Fatigue is the mental exhaustion that hits after making too many choices, causing your brain to slow down, avoid decisions, or pick the easiest option -like doing nothing at all. Your prospects get bombarded with decisions all day long; by the time they talk to you, their willpower tank is empty. That's why they stall with "I'll think about it" or ghost you completely. It's not them—it's biology.
