Applied
neuromarketing.

I apply validated principles of consumer neuroscience to your real marketing. It isn't magic or manipulation — it's understanding how the brain decides and designing communications that respect that logic.

Who this service is for

For brands that want to understand before investing.

Organisations with high-budget campaigns

Before investing in media buying, validating the creative reduces the cost of error and multiplies effectiveness.

Brands launching new products

Packaging, naming and value proposition can be tested before going to market. Better to find out in the lab than on the shelf.

UX and conversion teams

Landing pages, checkout, forms. Neuromarketing detects frictions the user will never put into words in a survey.

Physical retail and customer experience

Shops, hospitality, cultural spaces. Journey, lighting, sound and layout — everything affects the real buying decision.

Methodology

Rigorous application, no pseudoscience.

Phase 01

Business question

What concrete decision are we going to validate? An ad, a piece of packaging, a landing, an experience. The method follows the problem.

Phase 02

Technique selection

Eye-tracking, EEG, GSR, facial coding or implicit testing. Each technique answers a different kind of question.

Phase 03

Study + analysis

We collect data with a rigorous protocol (sample, control, replicability) and interpret it with the prudence the data demands.

Phase 04

Actionable recommendations

Conclusions translate into concrete changes: this button here, this message first, this colour instead of that.

What you gain

What serious neuromarketing measures.

The concrete areas where it applies meaningfully and delivers data that traditional marketing doesn't capture:

01 · Attention

What gets looked at, what gets ignored.

Eye-tracking reveals the user's actual visual journey across ads, web, packaging. What is ignored is as important as what is looked at.

02 · Emotion

Valence and emotional intensity.

EEG and GSR measure whether your spot generates the emotion you intend — or whether the audience gets bored at the crucial moment.

03 · Memory

What leaves a trace.

Recall studies at 24h and 7 days reveal which elements of communication fix in long-term memory.

04 · Decision

What triggers the purchase.

Implicit tests measure the strength of brand-attribute association beyond what the consumer could put into words.

05 · UX friction

Where users get stuck.

The closer to the decision, the more subconscious. Neuromarketing detects friction points no classical usability test finds.

06 · Brand-product

Perceived coherence.

If your packaging says premium but the website looks low-cost, neuromarketing detects it. And proposes how to align it.

Real cases

Real applications in different sectors.

Banking · TV spot

Creative validation before launch.

EEG + facial coding test of the final spot before investing in media buying. Detected attention drop at second 18 — it was re-edited.

Winery · packaging

Label redesign for Ribera del Duero.

Eye-tracking on 6 proposals in simulated shelf. The winning label multiplied visual fixation by 2.3.

Hospitality · experience

Sensory journey in resort.

GSR and facial coding at real check-in. Identified 3 frictions invisible to the customer but measurable. Redesign raised NPS 18 points.

How the brain decides

Five neural triggers that predict the decision.

When I work in applied neuromarketing, I'm not seeking to hack brains. I seek to identify which nodes in the decision process are underactivated in your communication, and reorder the message so the customer's brain processes it with the least effort possible.

When you need it

Signals that say it's the right time.

Neuromarketing applies when your business decision has an important emotional or intuitive component. Four typical scenarios where it delivers more value than traditional research:

01

High-risk launches

You're about to invest more than €50,000 in a campaign or a product. Validating beforehand that the market responds as expected reduces risk enormously.

02

Packaging and physical product decisions

The decision on shelf is taken in 3 seconds and is 95% visual. Eye-tracking here is virtually mandatory for fast-moving consumer goods.

03

Web conversion optimisation

Your conversion rate is flat despite A/B tests. The problem usually lies in frictions the user doesn't put into words — and only neuromarketing detects.

04

Premium in-person experience

Hotels, restaurants, concept stores, cultural spaces. Every sensory detail influences perceived value — and can be measured.

Frequently asked questions

What I get asked most about this service.

Is neuromarketing manipulation?+

No. Neuromarketing measures and describes how people decide; it doesn't generate shortcuts to force behaviour against anyone's will. Any persuasion technique works the same with or without neuromarketing behind it — the difference is that with neuromarketing we understand why it works.

How much does a neuromarketing study cost?+

It depends greatly on technique and sample. A remote eye-tracking with small sample can start at €3,000. A full EEG study with representative sample can exceed €25,000. In the first session we define which technique is viable for your concrete question and budget.

Do you work with your own laboratory or subcontract?+

Whatever fits the project. For digital eye-tracking and facial coding I have in-house capacity. For EEG or complex neuroimaging studies I collaborate with specialist labs (Sociograph in Valladolid, BitBrain in Zaragoza, others). What matters is that each technique is applied by those who know.

Is it useful for my very specific sector?+

Almost always yes. I've applied neuromarketing in sectors as varied as banking, wineries, hospitality, public sector, healthcare and retail. What changes between sectors isn't the discipline — it's the question the discipline must answer.

Is it useful for a small company?+

Yes, with accessible techniques. An SME with a single point of sale can do a remote eye-tracking test on its website or a facial coding study on its social media spot at reasonable budgets. Scale adapts — the discipline is the same.
