Measuring the emotional-cognitive effects of your advertising
Any attempt to provide valid answers to the question of an advert's impact on customers will have to delve into their emotional and cognitive reactions. The interplay of emotion and cognition determines how well an advertising campaign can assert itself in its competitive environment, to what extent it can raise brand awareness and which sustainable effects it will have on the customers' attitudes towards your company. The aim is to develop advertising that is perfectly streamlined to this complex interrelationship and hence to increase the likelihood that, in the decisive moment, the customer will decide in favour of your brand and your product.
