About this ebook
The majority of consumers’ purchase decisions are not based on any kind of value analysis. Emotions tend to guide consumers’ behavior, even though they rationalize their purchase decisions afterwards. The placebo effect draws its power from these emotions.
In this context, placebo means emotional methods that enterprises can exploit to satisfy consumers’ needs. Just like a placebo medicine can cure patients, the placebo effect can deliver deep satisfaction to consumers.
The placebo effect is for real. It has scientifically measured impact on the human mind. If, for instance, a consumer purchases a product to fulfill a specific need, and the consumer strongly believes the product will help, most likely it will help. The placebo effect is in action when a person’s own brains are selling a product to the mind.
This book explores consumers’ decision-making process, where beliefs, expectations, worldview and conditioning to predetermined things define consumers’ unintentional behavior. The placebo effect provides marketers with many tools, such as pricing, services, communication and brand to respond to consumers’ needs. The book analyzes a number of cases where enterprises have managed to benefit from the placebo effect. Sales and marketing professionals can get valuable tips from these cases when they are creating marketing strategies for their products and services.
Erkki Leppänen is a marketing expert who has worked for enterprises and institutions across the world. He has authored a number of sales and marketing guidebooks.
