What is brand science? What brand do you reach for first when you stop at a gas station? And how much of a role does your mental availability play in that decision?

Creating the right sensory experiences through brand exposure to improve memory association is discussed by Stæven in this fascinating episode as he offers up practical ways to implement brand science in your business.

Stæven Frey is the adorkable founder and chief brand scientist at Quantum Branding and he is super passionate about helping everyday companies without the big budgets of Coca-Cola figure out their brand assets and apply a simple scientific methodology to assess and articulate your brand’s most distinct characteristics.

This starts with a Brand Checklist (see link below), and from there we can really begin to appreciate our brand’s sensory assets and build out a brand and marketing platform that is congruent and cohesive.
