The Hook Model explains the psychological processes that go into forming habits. It also explains how companies can build products to take advantage of this tendency. Find out why designing a habit-forming product is the best sales boost your company could ever hope for. And, you\u2019ll also discover why the scrolling Twitter feed is so addictive (Hint: it\u2019s no coincidence). And, it also explains the ethical implications of habit-building products. The Hook model is based on the four stages of the Hook Model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Habits emerge because our brain is eager to save time, so in most situations, it will make us do what it was that worked last. The trouble with habits is, it\u2019s very difficult to permanently change them. Even if we change our routines, the neural pathways of the old habit remain intact in our brains and are very easily reactivated. Two-thirds of alcoholics who finish a detox program start drinking again within a year. So how can you possibly succeed in adopting a new habit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Habits are hard to ditch so students will likely use the online course for longer, increasing their lifetime value to the company. For new online courses to usurp your students, they will need to be significantly better than the old ones. Companies can be more flexible when pricing habit-forming online courses because customers have become dependent on the online course to keep up their habits, so they won\u2019t be so sensitive to price changes. For example, Facebook became such a hit because people got into the habit of using it and started inviting friends, tagging them in photos and other posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Hook Model is a cycle consisting of four steps that, when repeated often enough, will lead the user to form a habit around the online course in question. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The last step leads back to the start of the cycle and as these steps are repeated over and over again, the user starts to develop internal triggers instead of external ones. This means they will feel the impulse to use the online course all on their own, even without external stimuli. The cycle becomes an unstoppable chain reaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To start the process of habit-building, online courses need an external trigger. External triggers are \u201ccalls-to-action\u201d and can take various forms. They can be triggers that companies pay for, like advertising that encourages people to use their online courses, or relationship triggers that rely on viral dynamics. To be effective, the trigger must offer the user a simple choice of actions to take. If the trigger is overly complicated, it\u2019s unlikely to engage the online course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
