The Marketing Challenge:

Modern marketers face tough competition on LinkedIn, making it hard to stand out. Many struggle to engage prospects who are overwhelmed with content and connection requests. Even when prospects show interest, turning that interest into action — like booking a consultation — remains a key challenge.

How Cognitive Psychology Can Solve These Challenges:

Cognitive psychology helps by showing how prospects process information like a computer. The Information Processing Model can provide direction on optimizing profile perception, creating attention-grabbing posts, and reinforcing brand recall with memory triggers. If what you are selling is a complex considered purchase, it can be helpful to think of your prospects as students in need knowledge to make a buying decision. Your job is to move them from passive interest to active engagement as you educate them on your solutions.
