Editor's Notes
In 1898, St Elmo Lewis developed a model which mapped a theoretical customer journey from the moment a brand or product attracted consumer attention to the point of action or purchase [1] . St Elmo Lewis’ idea is often referred to as the AIDA model - an acronym which stands for Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action.
