QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE
On why Nike shoes are expensive: “When it comes to Nike, you see the amount of money they spend on sponsorship, of athletes. It’s all about connecting the consumer to an athlete and help consumers to aspire to be someone they would love to be.”
“Marketing to people’s aspirations are often far more valuable than just marketing to their problems.”
“Although it’s not a clinical approach (scent marketing), it’s something that can have an impact in clinical outcomes. When patients are in a certain frame of mind, or they’re feeling relaxed or energized, it primes them to have a great experience with their therapist.”
