, CRASHCOURSE ON THE BOOK: HOOKED BY NIR EYAL
“ Through consecutive Hook cycles, succesful products reach their ultimate goal of unprompted user engagement, bringing users
back repeatedly, without depending on costly advertising or aggressive messaging.”
à how do people become hooked? How do those apps succeed to make a habit?
CHAPTER 1: HABITS
- Examples: morning and evening routines à just something you do but not prescribed or something BUT it is learned
(e.g. repeating the reminder to brush the teeth when you have children because then they will learn it)
- “Behaviors done with little or no conscious thought”
- Behavioral scripts (e.g. the habit of going for a short run in the morning à one day: someone could not run in the
morning so he went in the evening but he made the mistake because he said ‘good morning’ to the persons in the
neighborhood instead of ‘good evening’ because it is a script
- Let’s us focus our attention on other things à if you have the habit: it benefits you because it will be a habit so you
don’t need to think about it
“OLD HABITS DIE HARD”
à Neural pathways remain etched in our brain – early habits are the most difficult ones to change… à things that you learned
as a child are easier to maintain but harder to skip/change
à e.g. brushing theeth, flossing theeth
WHY ARE HABITS GOOD FOR BUSINESSES? (REASONS)
- Customers keep coming back, no need for overt call to actions like ads or promotions…
- Higher Customer Lifetime Value (CLTV): habits increase lenght and frequency of product use and thus profits....
o Spend lots of time aquiring new customers (e.g. telecom, newspapers…)
- Pricing flexibility: customers really want/need the product and are less sensitive to price (changes)
o “You can determine the strength of a business over time by the amount of agony they go through in raising
prices” Warren Buffet
o If you raise your price and sales go down very hard then you are not the best business à people will just
continue to buy it if it is a good product
§ E.g. beer à if you like it, you have the habit to drink beer at a festival, then you will still use it even
when the price increased
- Supercharging growth: brand evangelists
o Users as brand evangelists à you want users to attract new users (e.g. tag friends)
o ‘Viral Cycle Time’: amount of time it takes a user to invite another user
o More frequent users – faster cycle time! Exponential growth!
o Examples: Tagging, Invite friends, ....
- Sharpening the competitive edge: users stick!
o “Many innovations fail because consumers irrationally overvalue the old while companies irrationally overvalue
the new” John Gourville, professor Harvard Business School
o Innovations fails because consumers overvalue the old
o “Old habits die hard” J à it becomes part of what you do without thinking à which makes it harder for
competitors to enter the market because they are so used to that brand
o (cfr. investment part of the Hook Cycle)
o Example: Twitter à people stayed however they didn’t like Elon Musk
PERCEIVED FREQUENCY AND UTILITY
- Google: frequency = higher but has a lower perceived utility
- If there is no perceived utility you won’t become in the habit zone
