How consumers perceive Retailers
about Sustainability…
Perceive the retail as a great
influencer of behaviors,
Confidence in the retail as a promoter of sustainability, once
the daily interaction with their clients is very strong
Expect the retail to take
social environmental aspects into
account when selecting their product assortment
Believe the sustainable
practices in the retail must be
continual, not sporadic actions
See the communication of sustainable
initiatives in the
retail positively, as a means to disseminate the example

The Case for
Neuromarketing
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
Subconscious processing and the consumer experience
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.

Five “neuro-lessons” for marketing
1. Most processing in the human brain occurs
subconsciously –below the level of conscious awareness.
2. Most of this subconscious processing is emotional, not
logical.
3. Subconscious processes have a significant effect on
shoppers’ attitudes, decisions, and behaviors.
4. Subconscious processes do not control us, but conscious
deliberation in consumer decision-making is the
exception, not the rule.
5. Your consumers cannot tell you about these influences,
because they are not aware of them.

EDUCATION
Three methodologies to measure
in-store marketing effectiveness
1. MOBILE AMBULATORY TESTING
Test every aspect of a natural shopping
experience, live and in real-time
2. VIDEO REALISTIC TESTING (VRT)
More control, faster turnaround time in study
process
3. 3D VIRTUAL REALITY (N-MATRIX 3D™)
Change features & products digitally, test
numerous features at lower cost than setting up
mock store environments
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
Mobile Ambulatory Testing
The most “natural” approach to in-store testing
• In-store testing enables brainwave
and eye-tracking measurements
in the retail setting
• Study every aspect of the retail
environment
– brands
– competitive products
– shelf and free-standing displays
– product demos
– promotions
– videos, signage
– aisle layout and navigation
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
Video Realistic Testing (VRT)
More control, faster turnaround time
• VRT neuro-testing is a powerful,
comprehensive, accurate, reliable,
flexible, and actionable research
methodology
• Maintains variables and prevents
“noise” from corrupting results; improves
ability to isolate impacts on behavior
• Provides flexibility and speed in the
study process (ability to change
products, displays, pricing, etc.)
• Realistic settings include other shoppers
(unlike virtual reality)
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
3D Virtual Reality (N-Matrix 3D™) testing
Best for combining control and natural shopping experience
• Fully immersive shopping
environments
• Ability to rapidly configure “skins” to
simulate any store design
• Hundreds of products fully rendered
in high-resolution 3D
• Realistic physics
• Ability to navigate, manually select,
and manipulate in virtual space
• Fully integrated with neurometrics
data collection and eye-tracking

Neurological Best Practices
Leveraging gender differences
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
The Male Brain
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
Suspicions Confirmed
Men and women are different biologically, psychologically, and socially.
65
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
Compared to the female brain, the male
brain has…
A Medial Preoptic Area (MPOA) that is 2.5
times larger. This is the area for sexual
pursuit.
Sexual pursuit is top-of-mind for most men
A more active Temporal Parietal Junction
(TPJ), the “cognitive empathy” brain hub.
Men often respond to emotional issues with
logic.
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
66
Compared to the female brain, the male
brain has…
A larger Dorsal Premammillary Nucleus
(DPN), contains the circuitry for territorial
defense, fear, and aggression.
Men are programmed to detect and
defend against threats.
A larger amygdala, the center for
detecting threats, fear, and danger.
Men are primed to react fiercely to threats
and fears.
67
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
Compared to the female brain, the male
brain has…
A smaller Mirror Neuron System (MNS), the system for
empathy and feeling what another person feels.
A smaller Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC): the seat
for worry, self-consciousness, ruminating.
The male brain doesn’t “fret” as much or as often as
the female brain
11% fewer neurons in the language centers of the
brain
Men talk less and have slightly smaller vocabularies
than women.
2011 © NeuroFocus, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Confidential and Proprietary.
68
Compared to the female brain, the male
brain has…
A smaller Prefrontal Cortex: the center
responsible for making judgments and
suppressing impulses.
Men are more reactive, impulsive than women
A smaller hippocampus, the center for memory
storage
Men don’t remember details of events as well as
women do.
A smaller corpus callosum, the nerve fibers that
connect the two brain hemispheres
Men don’t multi-task – or recover from strokes -as well as women do.

69
Focused Shopping
Men tend to hone in more quickly
than women on what they're
looking for. Men are not browsers.
Men shop for what they need "now."
Women can shop for something
and put it away for "later."

The Most Evolved Brain
on the Planet
Birth and caring for
infants “literally reshape
the brain [into] a more
complex organ that can
accommodate an
increasingly demanding
environment. “

Mommies are Better Shoppers
Moms use more areas of their brains at once
New connections between the right and left
hemispheres allow Mommy’s brains to be more efficient
in relaying information, gathering, synthesizing, and
integrating new messages
New moms improve basic memory and learning skills,
key strengths for multi-taskers, particularly when it comes
to shopping like activities
Why? Anything that brings her back to her children
quickly is an evolutionary advantage
81

Enhanced Senses
BEST
PRACTICES
Consider scent marketing for products and
stores.
Be vigilant about the condition of
stores/displays. The Mommy Brain notices
everything.
Avoid sharp corners in the aisles. They
create an avoidance response, particularly
among women with young children.
Engage as many senses as possible when
marketing to mommies

90
Altruism
BEST
PRACTICES
Let Mommies know that you support a
cause.
Give her an opportunity to contribute,
too.
Caring and nurturing is one of her
strongest values and she will be drawn
to these themes and messages.
91
Product Failure Intolerance
BEST
PRACTICES
Be vigilant about the condition of
stores/displays. The Mommy Brain
notices everything.
Avoid sharp corners in the aisles. They
create an avoidance response,
particularly among women with young
children.
If your product or service has an issue,
be honest and open about it.
92
The Brain Makes Behavior
The subconscious level
of the mind is where
initial product interest,
trial consideration,
purchase intent, repeat
purchase decisions,
brand image, and
brand loyalty are
formed.
