Why Neuroscience Now?
WHAT IS NEUROSCIENCE?
Consumer neuroscience integrates nonconscious measures to capture responses moment by moment, offering a more complete view of the consumer. Key methods include eye tracking, measurement of brain activity, and facial coding.
WHY SHOULD MARKETERS CARE?
Marketers use neuroscience to answer the question: How do consumers’ minds actually work? It can help marketers uncover more data that leads to deeper insights and, ultimately, more effective campaigns.
HOW CAN IT HELP YOUR BUSINESS?
Although only a small number of respondents (10 percent) attributed revenue growth to the use of neuroscience, those who did said it contributed a sizeable amount (an average of a 16 percent increase in revenue).

Expert Insight
“I think marketing and technology advancements are blooming and overlapping together. I think things like artificial intelligence and virtual reality — things like that — are going to redefine the way we interact with consumers.
We have to be prepared for a world where advertising itself may not be the dominant way we influence people. In a world where consumers have control and they can increasingly tune out marketing messages, how we influence people will shift.”
