How to keep time: Look busy
An ASU marketing expert weighs in on how busyness affects social status.
In this podcast aired Dec. 11, 2023, on The Atlantic:
When we think about products that are scarce, there are very few of them out there, so people really want them. When we think about a person as being scarce, then we think of scarcity in terms of time. So, how much time do you have?
