Your <strong><span style=\"color:#005d6f\" class=\"has-inline-color\">brand positioning<\/span> <\/strong>relies upon you to create positive memories<strong> <\/strong>that help brands grow, and that all comes down to <strong>marketing effectiveness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Drives Brand Salience<\/h2>\n<p>Jenni Romaniuk and Byron Sharp from the Ehrenberg-Bass Institute for Marketing Science have researched <em>what drives brand salience<\/em>. <\/p>\n<p>When it comes to memory structures, Romaniuk and Sharp argue that the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">quantity<\/span> and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">quality<\/span> of consumer memory structures are essential factors in <strong>brand salience.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kantar Millward Brown has also conducted a study regarding this and came to the conclusion that consumers rely on what is called heuristics, or mental shortcuts, to make brand decisions.<\/p>\n<p>One such heuristic is to take thoughts that have <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ready mental availability <\/span>and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">assign greater importance<\/span> to them. This concept means that consumers will remember the most salient brand<strong> <\/strong>when it comes time to purchase it.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, <strong><em>people make decisions based on emotions.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quantity of Memory Structures<\/h3>\n<p>Mental cues trigger thoughts in consumers around <strong>brand consideration sets<\/strong>.
