Pleasant smells keep customers around:
The longer a customer spends in your store, the more likely they are to buy your products. A shopper comes in with a friend and does not intend to purchase anything. However, after a while spent watching their friend, they start looking at items or checking price tags. More time spent in your store means more money.
Scents create a better customer experience:
Scent Marketing creates a better customer experience. It benefits store owners by influencing purchase behavior while creating an immersive shopping experience. Even if you are nowhere near the store and have not been to one in years, you can likely imagine the smell greets you when you walk inside.
Scents create a lasting memory:
People often experience a flood of memories when they come across a scent from their childhood or a significant point in their lives. Smells can stay with customers for years after they leave a store. Scent marketing can be part of your branding strategy. It can be a way to keep your brand in customers' minds, even if they are not thinking about your products. Plus, if people are thinking about you, they are more likely to return to your store.
