Neuro Science

Marketers are always interested getting


insights about consumers to enhance their
understanding about them.

Use various methods

Constantly on a look out for new ways of


getting to know / understand consumers
In 2012 researchers at Emory found that activity in a
specific brain area, measured by fMRI while people
were listening to music, significantly correlated with
a song’s future popularity as measured by sales
data three years later. But when participants were
asked how much they liked the songs they heard,
their responses did not predict sales.
Studies have also found that brain scans
taken while participants watched anti-
smoking advertisements predicted the call
volume to smoking-cessation hotlines,
whereas traditional surveys of ad
effectiveness did not
Why neuroscience
Thought, feelings, consciousness and actions are all
products of brain’s activity

InNeuroscience the brain’s reactions to various stimuli in


ads, messages, visuals and marketing tactics, and then
seeks to apply those findings in a way that makes
marketing more effective.

Typically, consumers show simultaneous blips in most of


their biological metrics when they decide to buy something.
What does neuro science measures?

Attention Engagement

Emotion

Memory Retention

Retreival
Engagement :

Attention to something that has an emotional impact

Influences likability and memorability

No channel surfing

No ad skipping
Important Tools in Neuroscience

Electro Encephalography (EEG)

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging(fMRI)

Tools that are used along with those

Facial Coding

Eye tracking

Galvanic Skin Response


Facial Coding
“Face is a picture of the mind and eyes are the
interpreter”

Cicero - Roman Orator

Irrepressible- Difficult to control - Leak out few


information

Emotions are reflected in the face

Facial expressions are universal


Facial Expression - Cont.d

Ofcourse , it is determined by culture ; intensity may vary


(subtle/overt) ;

Can we not use the tool called “Reading others” (face reading

Individuals dependent

May have problems

May not be accurate


Eye Tracking

As the name suggests, eye tracking consists


of measuring the eye movement patterns of
your research participants. It's a tool that lets
you see your brand, store or commercial
through the eyes of your customers.
Arousal- Pupil dilation

Attention - Via fixation points


Tells where the subjects gaze is directed

What grabs their attention

What confuses them

Speed of recognition

Uses

Improve website designs , ads, pkg


What is emotion?

Emotion is accompanied by distinctive mental


states sometimes accompanied by body ,
facial expressions/changes and behaviour .
Emotion has unique strength (intensity),
direction and quality (content)
Functional Magnetic Resonance
Imaging (FMRI)
Uses strong magnetic field to track the
changes in the blood flow across the brain

Administered when they are lying

In other words: “When one area of the brain is


in use, blood flow to that region also
increases”
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(fMRI)

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)

Wine taste is expected to result in high activity in


orbitofrontal cortex (OFC),the area that will
encode the pleasantness related to any activity.

It is not a self reported measure ; but measure of


the brain activity
Electroencephalogram(EEG)

Reads brain cells activity by placing sensors


on the persons scalp

Informs us what happens in the deep


subtropical region of the brain
EEGs are appropriate for capturing signals
about attention, arousal, fatigue and surprise,
which are emitted from the brain’s surface.
They are not as effective in picking up signals
from deeper within the brain, that are key for
decision making. EEGs therefore are better
suited for testing feelings and emotions,
Galvanic Skin Response

A Galvanic Skin ResponseGalvanic skin response (GSR), also


referred to as skin conductance response (SCR) or electrodermal
activity (EDA), is the property that momentarily makes our skin a
better conductor of electricity when we are physiologically aroused.
Measures skin conductance, heart rate, and
respiration

Measures the level of engagement and


whether the response is positive or negative
Voice Analysis
Harness the power of voice
Cogito analyzes phone conversations and provides real-time guidance to help employees better engage and connect with customers.

Conclusion

Neuroscience researchers are beginning to


probe whether the brain can be used to
influence purchases—an area of study that
generates excitement and also ethical
concerns
Sensory marketing

1

What ?

Designing products and packaging with conscious cues


that it communicates the consumer what the product is
and deliver the desired experience

Sensory mktg is mktg that engages with the consumers


sense and influence perception, judgement and decision.

2

How?

We perceive the world through our senses and


sensation influence our decisions without our
conscious awareness

Pdts have their voice and consumers respond


without consciousness i.e viscerally

3

Embodied Cognition

Without our conscious awareness , our bodily


sensation take decisions

4

Sensory Marketing appeals to one or more of
the five human senses: touch, taste, smell,
sound or vision.

It engages on an emotional level and aims to


capture consumers’ attention and influence
purchase behaviour.
What should a manager do?

Should create pdts and communication that


creates subconscious triggers that
characterise abstract notions about the pdt
to consumers

6

Pdt communicates with the design elements
consistent with desired personality - Kinderjoy

7

Benefits to the consumer

It creates perceived additional value

Shape the wholistic experience between the


customers and brand

8

Increases the ownership
Individuals tend to value the pdt they own more
and this is known as endowment effect.

The same effect is found when the individual


touches the product also. Hence touching leads
to better purchase intention and ultimately
purchase .

Likely to generate more purchase intention

9

Mechanism of action

Stimuli

Sensation

Responses (Emotion, memories)

Brand Perception (How much the consumer will enjoy the brand)

Brand Choice

Purchase

Repeat Purchase

What is the difference between
traditional and sensory mktg

In traditional mktg firms talk to customers ; in sensory mktg


pdts speak to customers

The product is engaging, enticing

It is science of communication using all senses

Consumers are not consciously aware of how they make


decisions , we need to probe and understand subconscious
preference of the customers

12

Why is sensory mktg impt for CB?

Attention, attachment and emotional


response
