Ben Guttmann, marketing and communications expert and author of Simply Put: Why Clear Messages Win — and How to Design Them, shares the science behind crafting messages that connect.

Applying these concepts of beneficial, focused, salient, empathetic and minimal communication helps remove obstacles and emphasise what truly matters. Discover the common mistakes businesses make by focusing on product features rather than real-life benefits. Ben stresses going straight to the source and asking real people for feedback to ensure your message resonates.
