01

The Framework

  • Awareness: clear communication; inform the customer the option exists.
  • Understanding: education, process clarity, comparison or explanation.
  • Trust / Risk: proof, reassurance, transparent process, appropriate guarantee/credibility.
  • Effort / Convenience: simplify booking/reorder, reduce steps, save preferences, improve access.
  • Timing: nurture and move communication closer to the real need window.
  • Urgency: use only legitimate deadline, capacity, seasonality or time-sensitive value.
  • Value Perception: improve value communication, packaging, proof or recommendation.
  • Price: consider added value, bundle, threshold or monetary incentive after economics review.
  • Choice Overload: curate, recommend and simplify.
  • Experience Failure: service recovery; do not respond first with promotion.
  • Relevance: improve segmentation, personalization and next-best recommendation.
  • Inertia / Forgetting: timely reminder plus convenience.
