EXPRESS YOUR BRAND
BUILDING STRONG BRANDS USING THE EMOTIONAL POWER OF SOUND
BY: JORDAN STEVENS CHIEF NOISEMAKER AT TREBRAND
POWER OF SOUND
POWER OF SOUND “Marketers who fail to understand the power of music will simply be
left behind.”
Mary Dillon, Former Chief Marketing Officer of McDonald’s
POWER OF SOUND Sound travels faster than a
speeding bullet and is processed quicker than light.
It’s the most efficient sense we have.
POWER OF SOUND It’s a primal sense and something
we can’t shut off. I dare you to try it!
PSYCHOLOGY OF SOUND
Who is Buying? French or German
A study by North and Hargreaves showed that consumers are five times more likely to buy French wine when French music is
played1. Ditto for the German wine.
Run for the Door Or not
The speed that music plays is generally the speed that we move. Slow music will keep
people in your store longer, which means more money in the till2.
Memorable Ads Do you have one?
A study by Oaks and North revealed that with the right music tempo listeners
remembered 21% more about the offer and the company being advertised3.
Tasty Food It’s all in the name
According to Professor Charles Spence, there is an association between taste and food dish names4. This means, matching your product name to the values you want to
express is vital.
Another One for Your Taste Buds
The secret behind airplane food Research by Woods discovered that high
levels of white noise, aka static, can cause our taste perception to go bland5. Experts
say that this is one reason airline food tastes so poorly.
MATCHING SENSES
Sound and scent, a super team! A study by Mattila and Wirtz showed that when arousal levels of ambient scent and
background music matched, consumers’ had a better shopping experience and
increased approach behaviours6.
