In taste, brand matters


My latest post is out on MarketingDaily. In it, I talk about the power of packaging to influence taste. Research has show that people are highly sensitive to non-taste cues when they are evaluating the taste of something.

As I say in the post: "It’s not just about the product inside. The brand matters because it tells consumers what to expect and influences how they evaluate a product." 


You may be curious which beer was the "outright loser" in my blind taste test (maybe as curious as I am about why this part of the story was edited out) but, hopefully, your curiosity is now satisfied.

I would like to agree to a certain extent. What is being talked here is "SENSORY" branding but do you think the same works in B2B branding?? And what about commodities??

As a consumer, I am used to purchase something without seeing what is exactly inside.Usually, I am provoked to buy it because of the package outside or brand of impression. therefore, i totally agree with it. brand matter certainly influence people to make decisions.

Brands do matter but to my opinion consumers opinions matter the most. Listening to consumers is the key to success for a brand.
