Many principles of Watson’s behaviorist theory are used in modern advertising. Advertisers realized the best way to manipulate consumers was through their emotions. Ads that make the consumer feel happiness, love or fear and anger will force them to formulate a decision on the product being advertised. For example, according to the Taiwanese movie ‘Twelve Nights’ directed by Raye, is about to advocate the prevention of abandonment to animals. We ask ourselves whether we love pets while watching the video or seeing the trailer. While seeing a sad-looking dog with a sappy ballad in the movie trailer, those pictures give the grief to viewers, and this sadness might cause more and more consumer to buy the movie tickets to cinema to support this film. The advertiser stimulates an emotion in the consumer in benefit of this cause.
From a theoretical point of view, the persuasion process is strongly influenced by capturing the attention of the consumers (MacKenzie, 1986). Consumers proved to make their purchase decisions based on the memorization of the stimulus and not at the time of exposure to ads messages. However, using nudity in advertising can affect brand recall negatively as it distracts the attention of the audience and make the careful thoughts difficult. The emotions arousing after being exposed to a nudity ad can orient the attention from the information to the source of these emotions as they reduce the estimation and value of the product in question (Clark and Isen, 1982; Gilligan and Bower, 1984).
Due to the ever-increasing number of brands, and the way people associate products with their lives, several authors have discussed the controversy of manipulation of advertisements, the way Daniel Harris always thought that consumers are irrational, manufacturers are controlling them in his book “Cute, Quaint, Hungry and Romantic”
It was during this time when critics, fueled by Cold war era paranoia, claimed that “mind control techniques” were being used to persuade the public into spending. (History: 1950s) In reality, this was because of the use of motivational research. Using psychology, this allowed advertisers to appeal to their consumer’s desires for acceptance, security, sex, and success. By analyzing buying habits and people’s attitudes towards products, advertisers could gauge which ads were more successful based on brand association, color, and packaging. Advertising research has confirmed that ads “emphasizing the aroma, taste, or texture of a food product […] establish their product as the relevant one for the consumer making a choice.” (Marchand xx) By using similar techniques on non-food items, those products become associated with the primal reactions of taste and
I. Introduction of classical conditioning Classical conditioning also called as Pavlovian conditioning or respondent conditioning. It is a kind of learning a new behavior through association that when a conditioned stimulus (CS) is paired with an unconditioned stimulus (US) and evokes a conditioned response (CR). It also is a learning process that occurs through associations between an environmental stimulus and a naturally occurring stimulus (Cherry, 2014). Classical conditioning has much strength such as can help to explain all aspects of human behavior and many of advertisers will use classical conditioning to advertise their produces, however it also have some weaknesses such as all classical conditioning responses must involve a reflex and classical conditioning is a completely physical process, learning is not important as reflected in scenario. This paper will talk about the strengths and the weaknesses of classical conditioning theory followed by a brief description of the scenario and the strengths and weaknesses of applying classical conditioning on it.
Marketing is a core pillar of an organization and contribute significantly in its prosperity through attaining the laid down targets as well as scope of development. The position of an organization is hugely based on its competitiveness and capacity to capture a significant portion of the market in relation to the prevailing needs of consumers. Interaction of the organization with the consumers and the potential consumer in the market arena is attained through the marketing wing of the organization (Ferrell& Hartline, 2012). The preferences of the consumer and avenues of satisfaction are aligned to the established marketing frameworks. However, the success of organization marketing is highly inclined to the marketing strategies formulated and adapted towards coping with competition and eventually enhancing firm competitiveness.

Sensory branding affects the brain by engaging the sensory organs (taste, smell, sight, sound and touch). Brands can’t impart an an aroma via a television or newspaper. In fact, the unique aroma, texture and sound has very little to do with the performance of the product. However, these factors play a great role by the communication between consumer and product. The sensory stimulation not only attracts consumer decisions but also helps distinguish a product from others. These get linked in our memory and finally get a part of our choice.
