Ben Parr: The Science of Capturing People’s Attention
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An ad for a new television show catches your eyes. Your immediate attention is captured. You watch the first episode and enjoy it. Your short attention has been captured. You devote yourself to the show, buy every season, read every relevant page on Wikipedia, and get the main character's face tattooed on your sternum. Your long attention has been captured. Marketers take advantage of the scientific secrets behind attention to get you hooked on their products. Ben Parr, author of the new book Captivology, explains that these principles are essential to building a lasting brand.

TRANSCRIPT:
Ben Parr: Attention is the common currency across all business. It's the most important currency you can have. Attention comes in many forms, which is part of the reason I studied it so much. There's the attention for if you turn your head because you hear a gunshot; there’s attention for if you start concentrating on a speaker, and there's the type of attention that makes people long-term fans of a company like Apple or a celebrity like Beyoncé. And so attention has become more and more important over the last, especially the last 10 years because there's so much more information than ever being produced. In the last two years alone approximately 90 percent of the world's information was created and we still have the same 24 hours of time. And so it's more important than ever whether you're a teacher or an entrepreneur or a businessperson to capture the attention of others.
Immediate attentions are short-term and immediate and an unconscious and subconscious reaction to certain sights, sounds, and other stimuli. You can have certain things that will capture their immediate attention — certain colors, certain symbols, certain sounds.
Short attention is our short-term conscious concentration on a subject or an idea or an object. It's the kind of attention that you give when you're concentrating on an episode of Game of Thrones or you're listening to a keynote speaker or you're looking at a news article. It's the type of attention where we decide we're going to pay attention to something. And what's really important about that is making sure that something is — it really focuses on novelty...
