- #6 China trip earlier this year. I expected an adventure… But everything went smooth and frictionless (thanks to technology) Works to a certain extend. Booking gets my money because bookings happens in 3 clicks. Even I perfectly now which hotel to book. I choose Booking.com because its process is effortless and frictionless. Back to China! It became boring. I missed a WOW factor, I missed human empathy and emotion. It was perfect, some of the tech was very instagrammable, but it was never a memorable experience. Memorable experiences are important, because neuroscience tells us that most of the interactions we have with brands are forgotten. Only a few positive or negative ones stay with us and have a long term impact on our perceptions. Example of a memorable experience in the hospitality industry: wedding aniversary L’Air Du Temps. From Instagram to a nice surprise on the table (foto erin stoppen on next slide) Or the student hotel with their purpose of being a student for life. Meeting other people, life long learning, doing something crazy. CONCLUSION: Great experiences: tech and data are enablers, empathy and creativity are drivers!

- #8 Platforms like Amazon know what we buy and who we are through trillions of data points. They know what’s trending and what’s not. More difficult > product or service innovation. Because, they don’t know our unmet needs. Data doesn’t tell you about that and the why behind it. You need to understand the ‘why?’ for that AND experiment (and get feedback from the market)! (Alibaba offers this service to major FMCG clients)
- #9 In Japan, advertising agencies that have an AI as a creative director. Helps to craft adds based on best practices. This is what you get: all the same. No differentiation, because of LACK OF CREATIVITY. BUT - In Cannes :: issue > almost non of the award winning ads are doing well among a general consumer audience. ONLY creativity! #nocorrelation
- #10 CREATIVITY + BEST PRACTICES (HUMAN + AI) > Only a 2 star ad / 5. So, NOT A WINNER YET. WHAT’s the missing magical ingredient? Consumer Understanding > why/insight >> #recognition #aha #emotion (!) Creativity + best practices and consumer insights is the magical formula!
- #11 The Inevitable (BOOK) Voordeel van Tech is niet sustainable. Voordeel in tijd dat je hebt met het technologische aspect wordt alsmaar korter. Human ‘skills’ make the difference! Exell not only in tech, but also in human TECH + Human > Augmented Intelligence

Weeks in a chalet in the woods to connect signals and think about the future…
- #17 TODAY Insights & Minds Box under pressure! Why? #technology #otherteamsdiy
- #18 E.G. Cereal Partners Worldwide (a joint venture between Nestlé and General Mills) – calculated that their community generated a 100% ROI due to cost savings. CPW was also able to get 7 times more concepts through quantitative validation stages in half the time, compared to the previous year. The drivers of this success lay in the fact that CPW keeps consumers in the loop and sticks to foundational consumer insights, by means continuous iterations that allow for pivoting mid-way the innovation program. #tindertool Better understanding of Consumers (real life observations – dichter op de huid van) Faster decision making At lower cost (through technology > crowds on platforms with automation bots and AI)

- #27 Connecting the dots between observations + why & wished outcome Master the skill of crafting insights #academy
- #28 In my experience, it is about delivering these insights in a way that is memorable and that generates empathy. So what type of deliverables do you think succeed in this ambitious goal? Making insights memorable and generating true empathy. Bewijs in Danone paper en Unilever R&D paper dat empathy noodzakelijk is voor impact: ESOMAR Best Paper AwardS
- #30 BUY THE RIGHTS ON THE WEBSITE! In general empathy levels have decreased by 48% over the last 40 years. For many marketeers a consumer is a faceless and abstract construct. A entirely theoretical construct encountered only in research reports. 1/ Involvement #DIY > Memory! De kracht van insights writing is niet dat ze het zelf moeten doen maar omdat ze onderdeel zijn van het proces. Mate waarin je begrijpt, voelt en ook credible vindt. Moment dat bedrijven gescaled zijn is er disconnect tussen consument en bedrijf en industrualisatie van research geen connectie tussen CMI en agency - je weet niet vanwaar het komt. Onderdeel zijn van process. Je begrijpt het voel thet en je owned het. Meer te involven achter de schermen 2/ Consumer Connect > Empathy! Marketers leven in een bubbel, anders dan hun consumenten - je empathy nodig en thick data om je consument te voelen en de insights te begrijpen Consumer Connect - Consumer Immersion Minds, Hearts VB: waarom werken we voor Uber, ze hebben alle data - maar ze kennen de stories niet en ze kennen de why's niet
- #31 Luckily Pine & Gilmore feature a 4th type of offering: EXPERIENCE. An experience is a series of events that stimulates the senses and activates an audience to pay full attention. It evokes emotions which are crucial in creating memories. How can we deliver MR as an experiences?
- #32 A first dimension to take into account is the participation level. Do we want people to interact with the flow of events or just observe. Active participation is easier for smaller audiences. Then we should think about the objectives we want to achieve. Do we want people to absorb insights and make them memorable? Or do we want to immerse them in the lives of their consumers and generate empathy? I’ve been playing around with EXPERIENCE for a while now and looking back, I mostly have “experience” on the right side of the spectrum. Actively engaging a smaller audience. For Air France KLM for example where we shared results of a concept test as a concept casino where people could place their bet on the concept that scored highest on a specific KPI. Truly making the results stick. For Heineken we wanted to increase empathy with the target group of party people, so we took the team on a lounge tour and gave them empathy cards with activities to perform to relive the journey of the target group. For experience examples on the left side, I had to look outside my own projects. When Skype wanted to introduce a new metric in the organization - the user ‘pulse’ –, they also tapped into experience. They built an installation with data-points represented by physical balls. An airstream shoots the balls in the air to the correct, corresponding height to show if the score goes up or down. And yes, people go wild when the balls go up. Last but not least, technology can provide a solution to also make immersion more scalable to a bigger audience. Instead of limiting the experience of an in-home ethnography to the happy few, VR could make this experience accessible to a whole organization. Thinking back about the Philips Sonicare project, I realized later that there was room for improvement on the empathy level. So I’d like to show you what I would do if I could do the project again – staging an experience – right here – right now - using technology that most of you have in your pocket.
- #33 If you didn’t get it up on your own phone, this is how it works. So you can swipe to center the view on where the action is. You can look around by moving your phone, by following me for example. You can look up and down in the bathroom, You can even turn around. And with a simple pair of VR googles or Google Cardboard, it gets even better. For the true observers among you, you’ll notice some interesting behaviors in this routine. And you get fully immersed in the CONTEXT of the consumer.
