to the question of why some brands were better received by the public than others,
whether it was simply luck or an excellent sales strategy. Now it can be said, with
certainty, that neuropsychological factors play a very important role in the consumers'
decision to purchase a certain good or service.
Neuromarketing is based on neuroscience and research methodologies, as well as brain
patterns and behaviors evident in people. The latest neuroscience research has shown
that customers' actions derive from a combination of biblical-emotional factors (fear,
anger, joy, sadness) and irrational factors, since the tendency to buy a certain product is
affected by non-conscious forces; for example: the environment, mood, social context,
etc. This means that customers do not logically examine the attributes and benefits of
products or services in order to purchase them.
However, the human brain can relate convergent and divergent thinking, the logical and
the emotional, make them act together, for decision making. Even so, we must give
greater importance to the emotional part of the consumer, since it is the one that causes
the brand to remain immersed within the subconscious. This is why many companies
have opted to use neuroimaging techniques, since they can predict the overall success of
the brand. The opinion of consumers about a certain good or service, takes part in the
positioning or not of the same in the market, before or after its launching. (Canal, 2018)
It is now when brands must find a way to build customer loyalty, focusing on their
emotions, generating positive and persuasive experiences; the most effective so far is
color. Many marketing experts know that, in order to enhance a brand, the use of colors
is a fundamental part of its growth and impact on consumers. Colors communicate
special sensations to us, according to Jürgen Klarić (2020)an expert in Neuromarketing,
84.7% of customers agree that the color of a product is the primary reason for making
a purchase. They originate a powerful message in our mind, it is not about choosing
colors at random, but to connect your brand according to the type of emotion you want
to arouse in the consumer.
Specialists in color Neuromarketing assure that the human mind is "programmed" to
react to certain types of colors, due to the perception of light suggested by the tone, in
this way we can provoke different reactions in consumers in addition to having the
possibility of transmitting certain types of corporate values associated with brands.
(Tejada-Escobar et al., 2015)
According to studies, color combinations can have a direct influence on blood pressure,
generating stimulating or relaxing effects on the person. In experiments carried out with
prisoners, by painting the cells with pastel colors, they were able to verify that anger and
anxiety were appeased. While the eye recognizes different shades, the action of the brain
waves changes, provoking chemical reactions in the hypothalamus. (Páramo, 2016) Thus
we find that colors such as white symbolize purity, yellow fun, orange is related to joy,
red is associated with courage, pink is linked to gentleness, green is linked to vitality, and
so on.
People decide about the product 62 to 90 % based solely on colors and it affects the
mood and feelings creating an attitude towards a certain product, so marketing should
