 DURING AN NPR INTERVIEW
A TOOTHPASTE STORY :

About 100 years ago no one in America brushed his or her teeth. Claude C. Hopkins , an advertising exec,
changed that. “ Claude C. Hopkins had made his name creating habits around products and making them
famous” Duhigg says. “he had these two simple rules : make a product into a daily habit – find some simple cue
, something that’s going to triggers the consumer – and second of all, you have to give them the reward. ….He
intuited [ The habit loop ] years before laboratories had proven that it exists.”
The cue Hopkins used to sell his toothpaste was the filmy plaque that forms naturally on teeth. “for years ,
people had felt a film on their and never worried about it. And you don’t need toothpaste to get rid of it, “
Duhigg says. But the poster read : “ Get rid of that film. Pepsodent gives you a beautiful smile.” people got into
the habitt.
The final step – a reward was needed : in this case , it was the tingling , clean feeling you get after brushing your
teeth.
 DURING AN NPR INTERVIEW ,THE AUTHOR
GIVES A CORPORATE EXAMPLE

In the book we tell the story of Paul O’Neil , the CEO of Alcoa , the largest aluminum
company in America and in the world.
When he first got hired , everyone expected him to come in and say ‘I’m going to
concentrate on profits and efficiency and making people work harder ”. But instead what
he said was, “my No. 1 priority is transforming worker safety habits within this company ,
so that we have zero injuries’ – which is big deal in a company where all of your
employees handle molten metals.
“That’s all I’ m going to focus on is just transforming our worker safety habits”
because he knew that if he could do that. It would set off a chain reaction that would
change the culture throughout the company.
