Very smart. People love the sound or in this case visual of their own name more than anything else.

Man, this is so true. I remember graduating from my UI/UX bootcamp and taking other courses while I taught myself during my career change. Those certificates on my LinkedIn made me feel that I achieved and stood out more, and I looked for more courses that gave them versus others that didn't.

Great read, Tom! I found it very interesting and noticed it resembled your previous article on creating minigames for engagement.

Love this. Sometimes you come across thoughts that feel like they came from your own head, but never articulated and for some reason or another didn't have the courage to put it out there.

This is such a clever use of psychology. Ego, status, and belonging all rolled into one smart marketing play. Simple, generous, and wildly effective.
