Cialdini’s third principle of persuasion is Social Proof. Safety in Numbers ! Cialdini defined social proof as people doing what they see other people doing. We see this all the time. What happens when you pull in to buy fuel. The service station starts to get busy. Few people prefer to walk into an empty café or restaurant? We are particularly influenced by Social Proof if we feel unsure or if we observe that the ‘crowd’ looks like ourselves. A common tactic used online is the ‘ most popular’ items indicator. This is a perfect example of Social Proof in action. What do you do on your website to warm your visitors? #manufacturing #smallbusiness #businessowners PS.
