๐Ÿ‘‹ Hi, here is the latest Behavioral Insights newsletter with the things I read last week and found interesting ๐Ÿ‘‡
1. Misconceptions about experimentation ๐Ÿ˜”
Matt Gershoff explans some misconceptions and why most of the work and value in experimentation is in: 1) defining the problem, 2) designing a good experiment, and 3) interpreting the results. Read the article

2. Ten rules for thriving in a digital world ๐Ÿ“œ
Jan Bosch explains what he thinks you (and companies) need to thrive in a digital world. I expecially like rule number three: Instrument and use the data.

3. Amplitude buys Iteratively ๐Ÿ“Š
This will help Amplitude (product analytics tool) users to collect even better data. Iteratively is a solution that helps you "define, instrument, verify and collaborate on analytics tracking, for high-quality data you can trust". Something that is causing headaches in many organizations. Read announcement 

4. Can Apple change ads? ๐Ÿ

5. Every failed experiment is one step closer to success ๐Ÿ™Œ
Ben van Stee explains very well that you can't really experiment without being comfortable with (the possibility of) failure. Read the article

6. Small changes โ“
Interesting thread on Twitter, triggered by a question from Mike Luca: "Are most companies testing small changes?" Read the discussion

7. Pricing experiments on nomadlist.com ๐Ÿ’ฒ
Digital nomad Pieter Levels shared a pricing experiment he ran on nomadlist.com. Unfortunatly, not enough data for solid results.

8. Zalando is looking for a Head of Experimentation ๐Ÿ’ผ
"You will lead a team of engineering and product managers and work closely with applied scientists to bring novel experimentation algorithms/causal inference methods into production at scale for use by decision-makers across Zalando." More info here

๐Ÿ˜€ Fun of the week ๐Ÿ“ฉ
This guy sends an Apple Airtag to himself to see if it is being tracked all the way. And yes, it works really good.

As always, if you're enjoying this newsletter, I'd love it if you shared it with a friend or two. You can send them here to sign up.

I try to make it one of the best emails you get each week, and I hope you're enjoying it.

And should you come across anything interesting this week, send it my way! I love finding new things to read through members of this newsletter.

Until next week, keep experimenting.
โ€” Kevin
