Synopsis
Advertising research organizations have been trying for years to measure the effectiveness of advertising. The Advertised Mind draws on the very latest research into the workings of the human brain undertaken by psychologists, neurologists and artificial intelligence specialists. Author Erik du Plessis uses this research to suggest why emotion is such an important factor in establishing a firm memory of an advertisement and predisposing consumers to buy the brand that is being advertised. He also draws on the findings of Adtrack's world-famous database of responses to over 30,000 TV commercials (the largest in the world). He explores what "ad-liking" really means, and suggests how this paradigm about the role of emotion has resulted in a continued effort to obtain maximum return from advertising spend.

"Measurement of advertising effectiveness is in demand, and this book helps both creatives and accountants deal with it." Fast Company "Details the latest in brain science, clearly and accessibly, and shows exactly how it applies across the advertising process - creative, media and research. You don't have to agree with everything, but you do have to think about it. Essential reading." Roderick White, Editor, Admap "Backed up by extensive research, du Plessis puts forward a convincing case for overturning accepted advertising theories and looking afresh at what advertisers are trying to achieve. Neurology is not easy to grasp, but du Plessis keeps it simple." The Marketer
