We may see a billboard, hear a jingle, feel the softness of the cashmere sweater, taste a new flavour of ice cream. Sensory marketing: in which companies pay extra attention to the impact of sensation on our product experiences. Marketers rely heavily on visual elements in advertising, store design, and packaging.
