Episode Summary

Jon Levy is a behavior scientist, author of the book, The 2 AM Principle, and a keynote speaker. Jon’s work largely focuses on two main areas: Influence and Adventure. While researching what makes and creates an ‘influencer,’ Jon created a private community and dining experience (with a twist!) for industry leaders. Through this dining experience, Jon has discovered the keys to designing a great social experience, and uses this knowledge to help brands cultivate strong influencer programs. Find out more about Jon on this week’s episode of The Successful Pitch.
