As a magician and owner of this website, I can tell you this book's info is a great insight into your buyer of Shows & products we sell to the public. You'd do yourself a favor to read and understand the methods and then imploy them in your marketing.

Publisher's Summary:

Based on the single largest neuromarketing study ever conducted, Buyology reveals surprising truths about what attracts our attention and captures our dollars. Among the long-held assumptions and myths Buyology confronts: 

• Sex doesn't sell - people in skimpy clothing and provocative poses don't persuade us to buy products.
• Despite government bans, subliminal advertising is ubiquitous - from bars to supermarkets to highway billboards.
• Color can be so iconic that the sight of the robin's egg blue of a certain famous jewelry brand significantly raises women's heart rates.
• Companies shamelessly borrow from religion and ritual - like the ritual, made up by a bored American bartender, of drinking a Corona with a lime - to seduce our interest. 
• "Cool" brands, like iPods, trigger our mating instincts. 

The fact is, so much of what we thought we knew about why we buy is wrong. Drawing on a three-year, 7 million dollar, cutting-edge brain scan study of over 2000 people from around the world, marketing guru Martin Lindstrom's revelations will captivate anyone who's been seduced - or turned off - by marketer's relentless efforts to win our loyalty, our money and our minds.

Packed with entertaining stories about how we respond to such well-known products and companies as Marlboro, Calvin Klein, Ford, and American Idol, Buyologyis a fascinating tour into the mind of today's consumer.
