TAKEAWAYS

  • Simplicity in messaging is not just about minimalism but minimizing friction for easy understanding.

  • Easy-to-understand messages create positive associations, fostering trust, likability, and higher engagement.

  • Message senders and receivers face internal and external battles against simplicity.

  • Good communicators eliminate “friction” to prevent receivers from getting distracted from the message.

  • Complicated messaging is selfish, cowardly, and dangerous.
