Influencing Brand Related Behavior
All communication around brands have the intention to influence brand related actions. Usually, the intention is to ‘buy my brand related products’. A simple intention that has one major problem: the brain of the receiving person has to cooperate. So what happens in that brain while you communicate is really interesting and even more so if you get tools to work with it. By the way, your behavior as a brand owner is brand related as well and it might have more influence on the process than you think.
