    3 Hacks to take away


    1. In popular culture, the number 666 is often associated with negativity and evil, but in numerology, it actually represents balance, alignment, and harmony.

    2. Angel numerology views 666 as a message from the universe to reconnect with one's true purpose, passions, and creativity rather than a warning.

    3. The number six is deeply connected to the golden ratio, the divine proportion found in nature, architecture, and art, which can be applied to digital work like website design and home studio setup.

    1. The "different is the new better" concept - Highlighting how your product or service is uniquely different can be more compelling than just claiming it's "better". Apple's iPhone launch is a prime example of this strategy.

    2. Making marketing messages "sticky" - There are three ways to make a message sticky and memorable: visually, conceptually, and verbally. Using techniques like repetition, rhyme, and vivid imagery can help your message stand out.

    3. Evoking emotional reactions - It's not enough to just get a reaction from your audience. The goal should be to elicit a strong emotional response, as that is what truly drives engagement and sales, according to marketing expert Jon Taffer.
