    Psychology is one of the most important aspects in marketing that we all tend to overlook. From content to colour, it’s the small details that can persuade you to either purchase or click away. Colour may not seem that important at a first glance, but it really is. Don’t take colours for granted as they affect the decision making process of anyone visiting your site.
