NIELSEN’S PHILOSOPHY OF
ADVERTISING EFFECTIVENESS

HOW ADVERTISING WORKS, CIRCA 1980
“Advertising works like the grass grows; you never see it
happen but you have to mow the grass every week.”
--Nielsen, 1980

HOW ADVERTISING WORKS – MAX SUTHERLAND

INFLUENCERS OF OUR PHILOSOPHY
Antonio Damasio
Influence of emotion on behavior
Somatic marker theory
Daniel Kahneman
System 1 / System 2 Thinking
Robert Heath
Application of emotion theories
to consumer advertising

12
ADVERTISING INFLUENCES DECISIONS TWO WAYS
NON-CONSCIOUS
VALUES
Often, emotions
(instinct) lead directly
to purchase
Emotions bias
what we believe
CONSCIOUS FACTS
(taste, refreshment, price)
3. This model is based on the Somatic Marker Theory as outlined by Antonio Damasio in his book Looking for Spinoza: Joy, Sorrow and the Feeling Brain ( Harcourt, Orlando 2003). For more detail see
Bechara, Antoine and Damasio, Antonio “The Somatic Marker Theory: A neural theory of economic decision” Games and Economic Behavior, Volume 52, 2005.

Our brains process 11,000,000 bits of sensory information every second.
But our conscious minds can only handle about 40 bits per second.
That’s a selection ratio of 0.000004%.
What happens to the other 10,999,960 bits of information?
Consumer brains process them subconsciously.

NEURO VALIDATION:
DOES IT WORK ?

NEURO VALIDATION
strong
correlation
R2 = 75%
validation study across multiple brands,
companies and categories
Vs.
neuro metrics in-market outcomes

24
ACTUAL AND NEURO PREDICTED RESULTS
Strong relationship between in-market results for ad campaign sales lift compared to prediction from neuro.

SHELTER PET PROJECT:
TV AD OPTIMIZATION

27
SHELTER PET PROJECT CAMPAIGN BACKGROUND
• Sponsored by Maddie’s Fund and Humane Society of the United States
• DraftFCB Chicago is the pro-bono ad agency
• 8 million pets in shelters
• Only 30% of pets come from shelters or rescues
• Campaign Goal: Reduce fear, uncertainty to increase adoption rates

28
OBJECTIVES
• How is the ad processed neurologically ?
• What are the strengths ?
• Which elements can be improved ?
