John Hossack from VKI Studios: "Ugly Jerry"
Hello Fellow Vancouver SEMs
We’re very luck to hear from our next presenter, John Hossack, President/CEO of VKI Studios.
John will be presenting on the “Contrast Principle” used to increase online conversions by strategically choosing comparison alternatives, also known as the “Ugly Jerry”.
He will be also talking about a new government funded (in other words, “free”) training opportunity at VKI Studios.
This one is not to be missed!

My first meetup with the group. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the people that I met. Great talk by John, wished I didn't have to dash off right when he was done. Jose is a great host! Looking forward to the next one.

Robbie Birkner+1 guestThe presentation was good and inspiring. I walked away re-thinking a lot of the strategies of how we sell towards our customers. It is always good to get different perspectives, especially perspectives that leave you re-thinking the strategies you use yourself.

Mark BossertGreat information - being a persuasion geek for 30 years it was very enjoyable to see how John referenced some of the latest research and most importantly (!) how to use it for online conversion. Top notch. Met some old faces, met some new very cool people - I will be back!
