NEUROMARKETING – BETWEEN INFLUENCE AND MANIPULATION
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
This subject was chosen because neuromarketing allows the marketing experts to improve their popularisation options regarding a brand, while having the potential to revolutionize the general understanding of the existent relationships between organisations and consumers. The paper was written to bring to the attention of researchers in this field – and beyond – the opportunities to reduce the gaps between the consumers’ subconscious and their behaviour, in order to fulfil their desires. Therefore, it was shown how studying the sensory, cognitive and emotional reactions of consumers to stimuli related to a product or an advertisement allows the researchers to find out why consumers make the decisions they make when choosing a brand or another, without the subjectivity specific to traditional research methods. The paper includes the description of the main techniques used in neuromarketing, aspects regarding the domestic market and Romania’s situation in this field, the areas of its use and the limitations imposed by the current economic context. This article may also be the starting point in developing a code of ethics on the use of neuromarketing, as well as the legal factors that can help ease the arising conflicts regarding neuromarketing – between influence and manipulation.<br/><br/>
