A more emotive language for brands

Behavioral insights aren’t just about understanding people—they’re about empowering brands to speak the same language as their customers.

If brands can master this art, they can create experiences that feel deeply personal and authentic, not transactional.

There are limitless opportunities for leading companies to have customers feel their brand values and tone of voice in ways they hadn't anticipated, by artfully using behavioural insights."

Jerome's notes

Danielle is right that Behavioural Science offers us a powerful new toolkit to create a deeper understanding of peoples' needs, and communicate this through how the brand presents itself. The "Behavioural Brand" is a pretty-untapped goldmine of possible moments of delight.
