They never lie'. This will help you make a 'match' with your audience. Leave them speechless!

We don't like to bore. We don't want to be repetitive. Communicating as always is boring and doesn't engage. We do it differently. We sabotage boredom. We create what the brain likes to consume because it stimulates it. Pose a dramatic question; it is the essential ingredient to maintain the audience's attention. It is usually posed subtly at the beginning of the story to intrigue the audience and is resolved atthe end.

Our brain is biologically prepared to process visual content. Almost 50% of our brain is involved in processing visual stimuli. Interactivity and animation can be your best allies when creating tables, infographics, or charts that help provide context to information and simplify data for your audience. We are visual beings, and it is easier for us to 'read' images than to readwritten text.

Our brain is equipped to consume visual content. Some facts: 90% of the information we process comes through our sight, and we process visual content up to 60,000 times faster than text. That’s why visual communication is more effective.

We are in the era of the explosion of digital information. This causes our way of obtaining information to have changed, moving from traditional reading to a cognitive strategy based on navigation.

We better capture visual content. Visual content is associated with cognitive and psychological mechanisms. Things enter through the eyes; the first image is what matters. We associate visual content with emotions.
