Matthew Effect: Cumulative Advantage — AI, Psychology, Sales & Entrepreneurship

Master the Matthew Effect, the mechanism by which a small initial advantage compounds into near-inevitable dominance: 'to him who has, more shall be given.' Understand the sociological engine (Merton, Zuckerman), the cognitive levers (social proof, status, halo bias), and learn to ignite a compounding cycle for your business — customers who attract more customers, data that makes your AI smarter, a brand that becomes the default reference — without falling into the traps (winner-takes-all fragility, single-point dependency, ethical drift).
