The Choice Overload Effect: When too many options is a bad thing | How to attract more buyers by streamlining your offers

Have you ever experienced analysis paralysis? 

This describes the feeling of anxiety you get when you have so much information that any action you take feels like the wrong one, so you end up not doing ANYTHING. 

It's really no wonder that the average person can feel overwhelmed by information, options, and choice. 

Every year in the United States, for example, 30,000 new products are released into the market. 

The average American grocery store, so not a superstore like a Walmart, just a normal sized grocery store, has more than 30,000 options on their shelves at any given time.

And the average Walmart, well, it has more than 120,000 products.

Everywhere we turn we’re just surrounded by more and more choice.

But is that a good thing?

Join host Jen Clinehens (MS/MBA) as we explore the Choice Overload Effect: How too many options can actually have negative consequences for our brains, businesses, and lives. And how we, as business owners, designers, marketers, and corporate leaders can manage the amount of options we give people so they can feel better about buying from us.
