Visuals-

As much as 50% of our brains are wired to receive visual input

It takes you about 1/10 of a second to understand a visual scene

It takes you 250 milliseconds to process a symbol, and attach a meaning to it

Images are stored in our long-term memory

Dopamine-When engaged in emotional meaningful content the

brain releases dopamine

It both encourages curiosity and enhances memory

A well-told story can engage many additional areas

making it easier to remember with greater accuracy

Storytelling that sustains attention and facilitates

empathy creates a chemical impact of shared emotions

Share Serves As Endorsement-

Columbia University and the French National Institute found 59% of links shared on Twitter weren’t clicked by followers

The instinct to share is strong, but the instinct to read what people share is far less potent

Shares are essential to building your audience, and are one of the most influential ways you can

reach new people
