Behavioral economics

A guide to the best B2B podcast coverage of Behavioral economics - the shows and 32 episodes that go deepest, ranked by substance, not downloads.

Behavioral economics reveals how cognitive biases and psychological principles drive buying decisions in B2B sales. From Robert Cialdini's research on influence mechanisms to practical tactics like reciprocity and framing effects that sales reps can deploy, this hub explores the hidden science behind prospect decisions - including how positioning (like Adonis's "forgotten heroes" angle in healthcare), pricing strategy from practitioners like Claire Wang, and frameworks such as Rob Snyder's "Pull" physics shape whether deals close or fall apart.
