Perceptual Contrast

✓ In web design we want our products and services to look and feel as important as they possibly can be.

✓ Compared to other items, we want maximum impact, price and service

✓ Tying in with Rejection then Retreat (see other video) it makes this technique even more powerful

✓ Rejection then retreat is linked to reciprocity (see other video) In that we give the buyer a second less expensive option, knowing that they will feel like we have conceded and given them something. They then return that favour by buying ( in a lot of cases) the second offer.

Contrast

✓ In going from low to high, we get this technique to work against us

✓ We want to talk about large values then a smaller value, making the second price seem a lot smaller in contrast.

In web design?

✓ Very similar advice to the rejection then retreat technique. Show your highest priced products first.

✓ This will make the buyer feel like they are getting a great deal and product in contrast the more expensive other items.

✓ Everything that you mention price and value wise will have a affect how relatively they see other items on the site.

✓ Subtly mentioning that items like these normally sell for many times your price can help sales and conversion.

✓ Never lie about price but perceptual contrast can help your business.
