3 SEVEN YEARS AGO Russell Fisher asked me a question.

4 DO CREATIVE IDEAS WORK BETTER?

5 The Classic Pitch 1. Get Noticed 2. Be engaging = stickiness 3. Be believed 4. Be remembered = brand preference 5. Loyalty

6 DO CREATIVE IDEAS WORK BETTER?

7 Creative idea = emotional

8 Common marketing questions: How do I prove the value of design? How to make my brand stand out? Why is retention easier than acquisition? How to I best engage customers? How do I measure creative ideas?

16 Do you place more value ON LOGIC OR EMOTION?

17 BETTER UNDERSTAND the relationship between LOGIC AND EMOTION

20 EMOTIONS ARE NOT JUST ANIMAL INSTICTS. Emotions are what makes us human.

22 Conscious Slow Cognitive Rational Subconscious Fast Automatic Emotional

24 Conscious only holds 4-7 variables. Subconscious holds the internet.

36 When our brain is doing its job at predicting our surroundings, our subconscious is in control. Only when there is an error or something doesn t match our predicted reality, does the conscious brain kick in. Only then do we become aware and notice the element that s different. Dr. Scott Steffensen

37 IF WE FIND A MATCH we feel a flood of emotion.

38 IF NO MATCH, WE NOTIFY THE CEO and make a new memory.

39 TO BURN A NEW MEMORY Anomaly detection + neurochemicals (emotions)

40 Emotion is critical in making memories. AND IN RETREIVING MEMORIES.

41 Emotions are powerful. More emotion = stronger memory.

43 Emotions represent a massive amount OF RATIONAL THOUGHT.

44 WHEN WE MAKE A DECISION our brain is flooded with feeling.

45 When making a decision and locking in a memory, emotions are everything. In neuroscience, there s another expression, Neurons that fire together, wire together. In other words, the more activity you have in a certain pathway, the more it becomes plastic. And that plasticity is mediated by certain neurotransmitters and chemicals also known as the regulators of emotion. So when we make a decision, our brains are flooded with feelings. Dr. Scott Steffensen

50 THE MARKETING GUT IS NOT DEAD

51

52 Common marketing questions: How do I prove the value of design? How to make my brand stand out? Why is retention easier than acquisition? How to I best engage customers? How do I measure creative ideas?

53 The Neuroscience Pitch 1. Get noticed A. Under radar B. Prefrontal cortex only C. Whole brain lights up

54 The Neuroscience Pitch 1. Get noticed 2. Sticky A. We only retain 10% B. More brain activity, More chance to lock in C. More emotions, more neurons are trained

55 The Neuroscience Pitch 1. Get noticed 2. Sticky 3. Liked A. Most influential variable is likability B. Lock in a memory with emotion (positive emotional connection is best)

56 The Neuroscience Pitch 1. Get noticed 2. Sticky 3. Liked 4. Remembered A. More emotion = greater chance of retrieval = remembered B. Retrieval of memory trace is now retention, not acquisition

57 The Neuroscience Pitch 1. Get noticed 2. Sticky 3. Liked 4. Remembered 5. Loyal A. More traces burned into memory = more chances of positive emotions B. Which means a greater chance of long-term plasticity. (in other words, trust and loyalty)

63 How to measure creative ideas.

64 How we measure today Focus Groups Online Surveys Experts Crowdsourcing ONLY LOGIC

65 Why stories make us react Attention + Emotion = Action

66 A simple way to measure A. Insights (Use data to establish triggers.) B. Create experience (Anomaly + Empathy.) C. Measure (Does experience hit triggers?)
