This summer, we're replaying some of the most useful episodes from the StoryBrand Podcast — episodes that can help you clarify your message so your marketing can actually drive sales. Today's replay is about cognitive load. The idea is simple: It basically means if your marketing makes people think too hard, they don't buy. This episode dives into the science behind why that is. You'll learn how high cognitive load messaging is hurting your business, and how to make your message easier to understand, remember, and act on. Donald Miller breaks down the concept of "cognitive load" and how it silently kills marketing efforts. You'll learn how to simplify your messaging, why "putting the cookies on the lower shelf" works, and how a billion-dollar company shifted gears by making its value proposition crystal clear. Whether you're running a political campaign, pitching investors, or just trying to sell more sweaters, this episode shows you how to make your message lighter, clearer, and more effective without dumbing it down.
