Leveraging Consumer Insights to Drive Business Value
The consumer understanding we have now is unparalleled—neuroscience has made leaps and bounds in their discoveries over the past 10 years, we’ve got mindstates, behavioral science, System 1 and 2, and more than ever we better understand how and why consumers make decisions. And boy do we have analytics! We’re doing more cool stuff with data than ever before with so many new companies entering this field. This should be the golden age of insights.
