Not Enough Meaning
Too Much Information
Not Enough Time
Not Enough Memory
4 Conundrums

● Benefit of Doubt
● Easier Problems
● Our current mindset
So assume…
We’re right ●
We can do this ●
Nearest thing is best ●
Finish what’s started ●
Keep options open ●
Easier is better ●
So you only notice…
● Changes
● Bizarreness
● Repetition
● Confirmation
So save space by…
Generalizing ●
Keeping an example ●
Using external memory ●
Editing memories down ●

Editor's Notes

  1. Getting out of the cab – > driver grabs her by the heels – > “what is going on?” – > “I didn’t already pay for this ride” The 24-year-old sales analyst is so accustomed to rideshare apps like Uber, which charge your credit card automatically when your ride is done, that she’d accidentally almost pulled “the equivalent of dining and dashing, but for a cab.” Uber: Seamless experience (app to order, see status, know the car/driver/rating, arrival status, directions, payment) – > Uber-autopilot Cab: Wonder why they don’t go (forget to give destination), sip out of water bottles only to realize that yellow cabs, unlike many Uber rides, don’t come with water. (Though he believes the bottle was unopened when he grabbed it, he’s also confident it wasn’t a rider perk. Feeling grossed out, he stopped drinking.) Brian Breslin, 35, never takes cabs in Miami, Fla. but he takes Uber and Lyft so often he can even get thrown off when he goes to drive his own car. “My fiancée and I walked towards the passenger side,” he said. “Then she was like, ‘What are you doing?’ and I was like, ‘Getting an Uber,’ and she was like, ‘This is our car.’” The car was parked on the street. But he’s made the same mistake in his driveway, he said. “This happened at least three times on separate evening weekends,” he said. “I looked in and realized that there was no driver and it was my car.”

  3. Have you ever given directions to someone that were so clear you could see the route in your mind’s eye? But later you find out they didn’t follow your great directions and got hopelessly lost. Maybe you even felt a little annoyed: they must have a poor sense of direction. Or, maybe you were at the other end, of receiving instructions provided to you with great authority only to be left utterly confused as you were trying to follow.
  4. https://medium.com/thinking-is-hard/4-conundrums-of-intelligence-2ab78d90740f https://betterhumans.coach.me/cognitive-bias-cheat-sheet-55a472476b18 4 Conundrums of the Universe 1st conundrum is that there’s too much information for any individual to process it all. 2nd conundrum is that we can only process a fraction of the information, so lacking of complete meaning. It requires us to use our previous experiences to fill in the blanks. EXAMPLE: how the first automobile was referred to as a horseless carriage, because the closest thing to it had horses attached. 3rd conundrum is that there isn’t enough time to analyze all possibilities to make sure we’re making the right decisions. EXAMPLE: deciding what you should have for lunch would take more than a lifetime if you TRULY considered all of your options. 4th conundrum is that there’s not enough space in our brains, to store all the raw information and all of the past decisions that we’ve made.

  11. Sales phases: Identify potential buyers who may have a goal or challenge you can help with Connect with leads to help them decide whether they should prioritize the goal or challenge Explore a qualified lead’s goals and challenges to help them assess whether your offering is a good fit for their context Advise a sales opportunity on the ways your offering is uniquely positioned to address their goals and challenges Customer service phases: Engage – engaging your customers is just the foundation. Being there for your customers when they need it (reactively), opening up different channels for your customers to connect with you, and providing reactive customer support. Support communication channels: Email, Live chat, Phone , Facebook , Twitter Guide – Proactively guide customers in way you know will help them. Identify key customer milestones that result in value. Think about content that your customers will need at each of those milestones to be successful. This may be different than marketing content created to acquire customers. Spend time with your customers to define the content they need. Organize the content in a searchable, public facing knowledgebase a place for content that is just for your customers. Grow – The growth stage is about getting to the point where customers have earned so much value they’re promoting and helping you generate new customers. Respond to customer sentiments and all customer feedback in a personal, human way. Digest trends and make improvements to your customer experience. Identify your advocates. Using an NPS survey can help you pinpoint potential advocates and turn your client feedback channel into a referral growth engine. Use for testimonials, reviews, case studies, references, referral, etc.
