In a previous blog we talked about Experiential Marketing and how appealing to the Five Senses can evoke memories and create positive associations with your brand!

This week, we talk about the senses of Sight and Smell which can be both stimulated and appealed to using a variety of subtle marketing methods!

Also, when purchasing a new car, the smell of a clean fresh interior will instantly appeal to the buyer and make buy diazepam from mexico them more likely to go through with the sale – this would also be the case with sight, the sight of a clean and tidy car is obviously going to increase its appeal.

Although colour is only one aspect of sight, it can be very effectively used to break through the clutter. Using bright colours in for example a direct mail campaign is a simple yet effective way of capturing the viewer’s attention. Well known brands know the importance of colour when it comes to the establishment and recognition of their logo or their brand as a whole, for instance the sight of a red van makes you think of Royal Mail, the Golden Arches of McDonalds, the orange carrier bags of Sainsbury’s – colour is used as a powerful tool for brand recognition.

Look out for future posts on exploring the remaining three senses; taste, touch and hearing!
