Send us a text ✨ Updated April 1, 2025 What do Tickle Me Elmo, bourbon, and Taylor Swift tickets have in common? Scarcity.

This week, we’re throwing it back to one of our most insightful interviews — a conversation with Dr. Mindy Weinstein , Founder and CEO of Market MindShift , marketing professor at Grand Canyon University, Columbia Business School, and Wharton , and author of The Power of Scarcity .

How top brands — and yes, bourbon sellers — use scarcity to spark action Why "reaching humans" in digital marketing is more nuanced than ever How you can ethically and effectively use scarcity to boost business results 📚 About the Book: In The Power of Scarcity , Dr. Weinstein combines her background in marketing and psychology to break down how scarcity messaging influences decision-making — and how you can leverage it to drive revenue, deepen loyalty, and create urgency without manipulation . With research, real-world examples, and interviews from brands like McDonald’s and 1-800-Flowers, it’s a must-read for anyone looking to up their marketing game. 📌 Timestamps: 01:41 Meet "Marketer" Mindy Weinstein 04:42 Technology in Marketing 07:50 One of the top women in digital marketing 09:12 The Power of Scarcity 19:16 The Four Types of Scarcity 20:41 Bourbon Scarcity 21:47 Businesses Leveraging Scarcity 🧠 Connect with Dr. Weinstein: 🔗 LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/mindydweinstein 📘 Book: persuasioninbusiness.com 🌐 Website: marketmindshift.com 🎧 Originally aired: Season 7, Episode 5 Want to be featured on Making Data Simple ?
