How Consistency, Reliability, and Trust Achieve Influence Without Persuasion

How Consistency, Reliability, and Trust Achieve Influence Without Persuasion

When adopting the intuitive marketing perspective, […]

Neuromarketing for the Rest of Us: Darren Bridger’s Decoding the Irrational Consumer

So we presented a bottom-up overview that was both broad and shallow. We tried to communicate the wide […]

The myth of the zombie consumer

Much of the fear expressed by critics of neuromarketing seems to be based on an implicit assumption that consumers need to be protected from neuromarketing because they’re weak and passive and, therefore, easy dupes of wily and clever marketers. This is an ironic assessment, because if these critics took the time to understand the brain […]

Why neuromarketing is here to stay

Not surprisingly, we (the authors of Neuromarketing for Dummies) believe neuromarketing is here to stay — otherwise, we wouldn’t be writing this book! The main reason neuromarketing will endure, we believe, is because it isn’t just another clever concept developed by some consultant or academic. It’s a natural extension of a solid and established foundation […]

Rory Sutherland is an executive at the advertising and marketing firm Ogilvy, where he has developed a practice around behavioral economics called OgilvyChange.

By Dr. Kimberly Rose Clark & Matthew L. Tullman Editor’s Note: This excellent article was originally posted in LinkedIn Pulse on January 14, 2015.

Can neuromarketing be used to inform and educate?

Having written about the potential dangers of neuromarketing, let’s spend a few posts discussing its potential benefits. Yes, there are potential benefits. Neuromarketing can be used by the public sector to develop more effective behavioral change programs and provide consumers with unprecedented insights into their own decision-making processes. It can be used by consumers to […]

Intuitive Marketing

Lately I’ve come to the realization that neuromarketing isn’t enough. As I’ve argued before in this blog, neuromarketing hasn’t achieved the uptake many of us expected in the early days, when we were sure our radical new measurement techniques would sweep away the old world of consumer surveys and self-reports, and usher in a new era of […]
