Abstract
This chapter presents sensory marketing in practice and theory. A sensory marketing framework is discussed and compared with mass and relationship marketing. Five sensorial strategies are suggested that emphasize the human senses as the center of a firm’s sensory marketing. At the end of the chapter the importance of the human senses, the brand, and experience logic in sensory marketing is discussed.
