The Brain Glue Effect: James I. Bond Decodes the Secrets of Emotional Selling

This episode we’re chopping it up with none other than James Bond. Well not from the movies. But he is a star in his industry. James I. Bond is one of America’s leading behavioral management and business marketing specialists - and is author of the multi-award-winning book, BRAIN GLUE - How to Sell Easier By Making Your Ideas "Sticky." For thirteen years, he ran one of Southern California’s leading behavioral management firms, working with a who’s who of American business. Early in his career, he ran an advertising agency in Montreal, working with a wide range of Fortune 500 and smaller firms. He is a past workshop chairman and sold-out workshop leader for the resource partner of the U.S. Small Business Administration, has been a featured guest speaker at three Southern California universities, and has been a popular guest on a wide range of marketing and business podcasts. 

The chop between Audrey "Tech Diva" Wiggins and James I. Bond centered around the concept of emotional selling and the power of brain glue(tm) in marketing. Bond shared his experience of losing a campaign to an anti-drug ad that used emotional selling and how it inspired him to learn more about the concept. He explained that emotional selling is more effective than logic and gave examples of memorable phrases that stick in the brain. Bond also discussed the importance of a title in marketing and selling a product, and how a simple change can make a huge difference.

The chop also touched on the use of alliteration and humor in branding to attract customers. Bond and Wiggins emphasized the importance of triggering the emotional side of the brain to lead to more sales and introduced the concept of brain glue(tm) tools. They discussed the importance of balancing logic and emotion in marketing decisions and how brain glue(tm) has been used throughout history to create memorable phrases. He shared stories about Marilyn Monroe and David Ogilvy, who both used asymmetry to stand out in their respective industries.
