По результатам анализа, Marilyn выявила, что среднестатистический россиянин видит в день в среднем 430 рекламных объявлений, из них — 245 баннеров, 133 контекстных объявления и 51 видеоролик.
Бренд- контакт - это контакт, не связанный с прямой рекламой - упаковки, логотипы, упоминания друзей и многое другое.

1. Consumers see more brand messages than their brains can handle.
2. Consumers are constantly multi-tasking—driving, walking, talking.
3. Consumers are tired of being burned by faulty brand promises.

The Fogg Behavior Model shows that three elements must converge at the same moment for a behavior to occur: Motivation, Ability, and Trigger. When a behavior does not occur, at least one of those three elements is missing.



The Hook model by Nir Eyal
1.Triggers
- Internal Triggers
- External triggers
2.The Action
3.The Variable Reward
4.The Investment

When in 1998 Procter & Gamble failed new project on launching "the destroyer of odors", while spending $21 000 000 on marketing and advertising, nobody could imagine thatthe problem was not in local mistake, but in particular aspect of consumer behavior that ruined thousands of companies and became threaten #1 for new projects in Russia
Threaten #3. Ad. ROI is falling, and digital too
Consumers got used to ad and became "blind"
Runet users see about 430 ad messengers per day, but this figure is nothing compare to quantity of brand-contacts - 20 000 per day!

Distrust to business is growing
In case of seven most impotant changes in customer behavior third place is occupied by customers dissapointment in brand promises of the companies. For instance, according to NAFI pole by 2015: only 34% russians trust insurance companies, 38% in 2014 and и 41% – 2013

Ad became more expensive
In 2016 Facebook and Instagram increased cost of 1000 shows (CPM- model) on +65% and + 42%
Threaten #2. Loyalty is nothing
Does loyal programms help to retain the customer? No. In 2010 leading brand visioner М. Lindstrom proved: the consumers don't treat brands like people: they feel neither gratefulness, nor love, nor obligations to brands. In consumer mind trade marks are seen more likely as way to reach personal goals. Moreover, motivation is not the only thing that determinantes consumer behavior. Also simplicity and its triggers are very important. That why in order to maintain clients it's crutial to work on transforming customers experience in to a habit but not on loyalty. And do you ever think why Facebook account can be customized in such details?
Threaten #1. Irrational customer behavior
What has happened with P&G?
With help of expensive focus-group and polls marketers get convinced that people want to buy product that eliminates odors. They spent millions on product development and soon a new Febreze was launched on the market. The sales took off during the first week, but than stopped. Mamagers didn't undestand why people didint buy it again. Researchers held omnichannel mass ads campaing. according to surveys clients were 100% satisfied and Febreze really eliminate odors. But when managers visit customers houses it appeared that spray was left in the distant corner. Owners didn't use it.
The project was deemed as a failure. But his leader D. Stimson didn't gave up and appealed to psychologist. He found out that consumers don't really need "odors killer", but they need "creator of smel of cleanliness"
When consumers used Febreze they didin't receive sensory reinforcement of theirs activities, so their brain didn't produce dopamine and they didn't want to use spray again.
Behavioral model didn't transform into habit.
Than D. Stimson decided to add to Febreze the "smell of ocean air", and showed in the ad that you need to use the spray in the and of your cleaning. Since that zilch of Febreze became "signature" of caring housewife and its market size reached $ 1 bln. ( case is described by Ch. Dahhig, Power of habit

Polls and surveys can't predict customer behavior. Consumers don't know how they will react in reality. A lot of different factors influence on their behavior.
About design thinking. Business leaders have not yet fully embraced it as a means of managing the constant pace of change in today's climate. This process is an essential tool that will give entrepreneurs the edge they need to succeed.

Labour capacity decreases due to crossfunctional competition

Different goals of different department cause the competition. If marketing department is responsible for "persuading clients" than no wonder that in 2014 in M*K insurance company marketing dep spent 176 man-hours on arguing with administration dep
310 m/h - in * Europe Bank in 2010


+ 25%
Wages fund grows due to excess employees


Basing on my own expert assessment about 25% of employees work on ineffective projects in companies with more than 3000 workers
- 79%
Marketing ROI is falling


In 2010 * Europe Bank spent $500 000 on merchandising, revenue inscreased in $200 000. In 2013 M*K spent $400000 on TV ads on NY holidays without any revenue growth. And I can mention dozens similar examples revenue from own background

Familiar case?
Where is the mistake?
Уou don't need to persuade your customers in advantages of your product. You'd better nudge them to the first customers experience анализ!

For instance:
In London withing the programm " Healthy food" (ВIT ) had the task to increase consuption for vegetables. There were two aprroaches.

1. Standart one. Persuation of customers.
Coloful posters, encouraging visitors buy more vegetables and promoting healthy food, were put in stores in prominent places.

2. Behavioral economics one. Nudging to customer experience анализ.

Special sections for vegetables were added in shopping cart.

In the result of the first campaign vegetables consuption increased by 3%.
Due to second campaign - by 108%.

Why did it happen?
In most cases it's much easier to change behavior than beliefs because beliefs are "protected" by conscience, but behavior is influence by a lots of subconscience factors that person doesn't notice.
For insrance, drivers that briefly saw sign "Danger", but didn't manage to recognize it, slowed down more often than those whos saw the sign clearly.

Behavioral psycologist R. Chaldini in 1995 proved that changing behavior leads to changing the attitude - people strive to avoid cognitive dissonance and corect thoughts and feelings according to the behavior.

The right way: behavioral economics model

customer experience, decision making, behavioral economics, behavioural economics,
If you want to decrease costs on projects, you should influence on customer decision making
Creating customer environment
Much more German wine was sold in store when German music was playing in section ( D. Ariely, behavioral economics expert)
Coding consumer emotions
Our brain evaluates our senses, but not facts.
Value is calculated according emotions, but not thinking and logic. Sensory perception forms the first feelings, then the person is realize of them, analyzes them and decides to take any action. (Neurobyology, Behavioral economics )
Exploring behavioral patterns
In fastfood chain clients bought twice more ingredients when they were asked to remove them than when were asked to add them. It's much more effective to offer from largest to smallest proposal. And what about your website catalog?
Using rules of perception
in 2014 in London was decreased quantity of speed limits violations on city roads due to new speed control screens. What is В чем их особенность? На экране высвечивался смайлик, если ты ехал нормально и "грустный" смайлик, если ты превысил скорость. (P. Barden. behavioral marketing expert)
Catching on biases
In the USA in 2010 in grocery stores a special campaign "three bars for the price of two" was held. People bought two bars on average. Than marketers put new poster " buy eighteen bars and put it in your fridge", and customers start to buy three and more bars at a time. This is bias "anchoreffect". There are more than 70 such biases.
Exploiting the mechanics of attention
Why does a hungry man see more signs of food? Because firstly all information goes to limbic system - 11 mln bit per sec., and after this it goes to neocortex - only 40 bit per sec. Emotionally marked information is prioritized. At the moment when you are hungry food causes the most powerful and if your leg hurts, what will you see firstly in this case?
Behavioral economics in project management consists of using these and many others instruments for insreasing ROI

Watch how behavioral economics helps in company positioning
Classical segmentation means shaping groups of clients according to their age, income and lifestyle.
But in insurance it's not enough, because such clients generate loss. So we decided to find where are the roots of losses. And we found out - in motive of the buying insurance. We conduct a survey and identified two main groups.
1. I buy insurance in order not to lose money that I invested in a car in unpredictable situation
2. I buy insurance in order to economy. I know how often I can get in to car accident and can calculate difference between cost of repair and insurance.
Also there are some additional groups:
- those who were forced to buy insurance by bank
- those who follows the principal " I'm ready to pay for insurance only if it's cost aren't sufficient for me"
Insurance companies work with all types of clients which means that they often sell insurance to people who don't really need it.

2014, case of behavioral economics in re-positioning company, 3.41 min
As the result the attract not target segment by marketing campaigns, cashbacks, negative options, and boxes the costs only $10
It leads to low loyalty, clients turnover.

Client turnover, lack " the elasticity of demand to price " (In 2014 40% of clients from top 10 insurance company sad that they want to move to another company in case of increasingly price by 5 % without changing conditions)

In same time according to survey segment #1 is ready to pay 30% more for higher service. Due to it we changed our marketing campaign for this segment. Detailed description of the most important transformations you can read here.

As the result:
Target profitable segment grew from 10% to 48% in the company's portfolio.
Negative financial result declined from - $100 mln to - $45mln.
Profitability of car insurance grew from -13% to +5% ( the average figure for marker -4-6%)
What changes with behavioral economics model:
Costs on project will decrease due to matching you service/product customer requests in every point of communication.
For example, after learning that the main selection criterion for an insurance company's client is the convenience of receiving a payment, we changed 22 processes in the settlement of the loss and thereby increased satisfaction from 76 points to 98, which in turn generated a lot of positive feedback on the network and the company's rating increased from 29th place to 3rd. All this has led to increased sales and reduced advertising costs, because 95% of 100% of potential customers do not trust advertising, but the reviews of real people.
Processes

Processes that don't add value for clients are optimizing.

For instance, clients of insurance companies often can wait car assistant up to 1.5 hours in his damaged car which causes lots of complaints. We suggested car assistants to bring hot coffee or lemonade with them. It decreased amount of complaints and increased number of second purchases even for higher tariff +3%

Services

You can launch services for clients and save money on it

For instance, 87% of clients compare prices and read reviews before buying care insurance. When insurance company placed on its main web pages other people reviews and gave opportunity to compare prices, traffic grew and budget on Internet promotion was cut by $400 000
People

The cost of personnel will be decreased

In insurance company 24 marketing managers were reduced and their functions were outsoursed. It allowed to safe $ 1.3 mln per year

Advertising

Stop wasting money on ineffective advertising

Insurance company from Top-10 spends on average about $3 mln. on media advertising.
When we launched a project aimed to motivate clients to leave reviews in the Internet, insurance company coverage nearly all potential clients (87% of clients read reviews in the Internet, 91% of them use such info in decision making ) and saved 76% ad budget.

How we decreased ad budget by 34% in insurance company, case
In 2014 insurance company conducted costumer journey. One of the result was mapping 22 points of communications « client – company». Before CJ we thought that there were only 5 points.
Further development of processes and interaction with clients led to growths of positive reviews in the Internet ( the first place in 2015) and possibility to cut ad budget by 30% For more details about the projects - watch the video.
