@adamwhite Ha! Glad you like it! For years I've been thinking about the concept of psychology in marketing. Marketing is pretty much all about psychology implemented in a various ways. I just needed a database that would help me visualize what concepts I want to show to my customers in the most efficient for them way The same goes for the viral campaigns. For me, they were the representations of the most creative & the most psychology-efficient ways of showing your creative work. I've been searching for them for years. Unfortunately, there wasn't such thing in the internet that would describe the way those projects went viral. Most publishers assigned the success of those campaigns to the sheer luck - which is mad! That's why I've started both these projects, and the deeper I go, the better it gets!

Now the question is - "Is Brainiac Worth It?" (spoiler alert, yes) The website has gone through a number of changes ever since its initial launch and from what I'm guessing, Mike isn't even done. The best part is, signing up to the initial newsletter gives you access to additional Cognitive Biases and Case Studies which were invaluable in designing several aspects of our own brand and product. Also, he wasn't kidding. The price has gone up significantly! However, early adopters to higher tiers will benefit the most as any and all future updates are provided for free, at no additional cost. Is Mike insane? Maybe. But then again, after studying how companies have exploited 150 different cognitive biases - you'd have to be an evil genius to sell them back to the public for MRR or a value-based ever-increasing lifetime license.

@theonikolai Woah! This is a lot to take in. You have no idea how much it means to me. From the bottom of my heart - THANK YOU!

I first came across a few Brainiac models and case studies about 6-7 months ago when I was researching how to inject more behavioral design principles into our product and growth tactics. It was and continues to be an invaluable resource. I love how easy it is to go back and reference the concepts - so convenient and easy to grasp and action upon. Excited to check out the newest updates!
Mike
@aj_alkasmi Thank you AJ! I really appreciate your help! I'll get back to your email later on today! xD

It’s about time entrepreneurs recognise the value of sentiments people associate with products Everybody in the industry could benefit from Brainiac and KSH. Also, it’s great that we have a mobile option available to keep learning on the go! I believe that the UI could use some colours and illustrations to make it look more appealing.Great job with the quiz game

Brainiac has done a commendable job in bringing attention to the concept of integrating human psychology into business. I personally have had a hard time finding a one-stop destination for case studies. Looks like KSH is just the solution for all the marketing enthusiasts! Looking forward to more games and quizzes to keep the creative juices flowing.

Sounds very interesting, cognitive biases is something we all should know.
