I first met Bart at the Conversion Jam Conference in Stockholm, where we both were speakers. I found it fascinating and fun that we were able to approach the same business website conversion problems from completely different angles. Bart has some real opinions on translating brain and behavior research into actionable strategies, and he has a knack for taking complex science and explaining it in terms that business people can understand. Bart is on today to share some of those tips and tactics to help you use economic psychology to increase your sales.

This week is a departure from the usual format. It’s an interview, but I’m the one being interviewed. In this episode, I speak with Alex Harris about a variety of conversion and marketing optimization topics.  We taped it for his video podcast, MarketingOptimization.TV, but I thought we covered so much useful content that I asked Alex if I could publish the audio version here.
