Enjoyed this newsletters a lot! Indeed a powerful tactic. One question: what does the x-axis on the plumber situation graph represent? A scale of 1-10? Or something else?
My apologies, I meant to say y-axis! I know that it’s a numerical scale—is 2 least satisfied, 6 most satisfied? Or 1-10? 1-100? What is the numerical scale that you used?
The scales are from 1 to 7, and depending from the metric 1 can be not likely/not at all/strongly disagree, while 7 can be very likely/very much/strongly agree
This technique is great to keep in mind in the online work environment as well. I find that we apologize all too often in emails…
“I’m so sorry that I missed this…”
Instead:
“Thank you for catching this!”
A little thing but definitely sets the tone.
Just found this post. Very interesting. Agree that a subtle word shift can make all the difference.

Thanks a lot Drew!
The X axis is categorical, while the Y axis shows a numerical scale 🙂
