Work Those Taste Buds With a Little Orange Advertising – How Color Theory Can Make Your Marketing More Effective

If you’re planning a marketing or advertising campaign, color is sure to play a key role in the success of your venture. After all, it’s pretty much the first thing your consumers will notice*, making color your best – and sometimes only – chance to get a message across.

Use of color in most design for marketing and advertising is dictated by certain obvious requirements; the need to reflect a specific brand, as well as the attempt to communicate a certain mood dictated by the product itself.

Company branding is pretty straightforward – specific colors dictated by logos and other devices will need to be incorporated into at least part of your design. It’s the choice of color scheme for conveying the ‘personality’ of a product that’s often a lot harder to come up with.

Sometimes the decision is partly intuitive – most people understand even at a very basic level that bright, saturated colors will convey a different kind of mood to neutral grays or browns. Experienced designers, of course, go further still, selecting and implementing colors on the basis of their effectiveness in the overall design. Here, the guidelines of traditional color theory often come into play as a kind of balancing act to ensure that all parts work together well and that the right kind of colors are used.

But what if some colors are actually more right than others?

We’re about to embark on an exploration of color related not just to its use in layout, but rather, the psychological and physical impact it’s likely to have on a viewer.

A big, and sometimes controversial undertaking, and we’ll first need to get a couple of things straight. While people often talk about a psychology of color, in reality, most psychologists would find fault with the accuracy of this term. This is because the significance given to various colors isn’t universal and unchanging – in many ways it’s quite the opposite: various cultures quite often associate the same color with very different emotions and ideas.*

Yet colors and their underlying fabric of sociological and historical connotation certainly do produce specific reactions in particular contexts – emotions, associations and even physical effects that can help advertisers in their quest for ever more accurate targeting.

And if this all sounds a bit hokey, at the very least, the idea that color can actively influence consumers shouldn’t be disregarded entirely. So let’s take a look at what colors seem to be telling us.

Red

Red, the most vibrant and powerful of colors, seems like a good place to start. Particularly since studies have shown that it’s the first color babies recognize, and one that continues to appeal to most people throughout their childhood and into their adult lives.

At a purely symbolic level, it’s the color of fire and blood, an association that’s common to all cultures and therefore extremely powerful. Less specifically, it’s a color that seems to be associated with energy, war, danger and power, not to mention passion, desire, and love.

So what does that mean for marketing?

To start with, some of these associations are so deeply ingrained that it wouldn’t be wise to use a color other than red to represent certain states. Try depicting extreme emotions such as violence or passion with shades of blue and you’re going to run into problems.

What’s more, it has been shown that in its brighter variations (tomato, pillar-box), red actually provokes a physical response by raising respiration rate and blood pressure.

For this reason, its use in ‘sexy’ advertising scenarios or as an erotically charged statement (on lips or fingernails, for example) should quite literally set hearts beating faster – and unusually, it’s regarded as equally arousing by men and women.

Whether the physiological ‘red effect’ occurs simply as a result of its associations; or because the color itself somehow provokes such a response; or, if, indeed, this effect relies on a combination of the two, isn’t something that necessarily matters here. What is important is that red, like virtually every other color, exerts a measurable influence on the consumer.

More about the ‘red effect’

Quite apart from any physical reactions it might provoke, red’s association with force, and therefore power, is an extremely dominant one. Consider all the details in our everyday lives that support this notion: red icons on switches to indicate their ‘on’ state; the plastic coating on ‘live’ wires; the tiny red glow that tells us an electrical appliance is working.

All of which makes red an ideal color to suggest fast-moving action or extreme force – products that might fall into this category include computer games, action-adventure books or movies.

This deep-rooted association with power, coupled with the fact that it actually raises metabolic speed, also makes red a good candidate for any product that seeks to impart the idea of improvement, rapidity or physical change. Just a few of many possible examples include anything related to sport or speed (think of those red sports cars), energy drinks, self-help guides, or batteries. Even ‘fast-acting’ or ‘powerful’ over-the-counter drugs can support their status with at least a dash of red.

Perhaps as a result of all that heavy breathing, red also increases appetite, making it an excellent choice for advertising food (it’s popularly claimed that Chinese restaurants often use red color schemes for this reason, but there’s little truth in this – red simply happens to be a very popular and ‘lucky’ color in Chinese culture).

However, if enticing diners to eat heartily is something you’re aiming to do, an all-red environment is a good way to get stomachs rumbling.

Pink

Although it derives from red, pink has little of its big brother’s forceful qualities. In fact, although it’s usually perceived as a warm and fairly upbeat color, it is, of course, popularly associated with femininity and even passivity. A cliche, perhaps, but its vigor-reducing reputation has again been shown to have some basis in fact.

Famously, a shade of bubble-gum pink used in certain cells in a men’s prison was unexpectedly found to placate aggressive inmates. Research corroborated the fact that pink did indeed have significant calming qualities – although subsequent study revealed that after a certain time these effects were dramatically reversed as prisoners became more agitated and aggressive than before. (Surprised? You try living in a bubble gum pink environment).

Nevertheless, the fact that pink does induce at least a temporary sensation of calm makes it a powerful factor in the color-coordinated approach to advertising. Its peaceful, relaxing qualities and general evocation of comfort and softness have long made it a favorite for items such as toilet paper, cotton wool and ‘gentle on the skin’ toiletries, especially baby lotions.

This association could possibly be explored further as a background or accent color for items where comfort is key, such as bedding, sofas or carpets. Apply with caution, however – the strong association with femininity means that anything ‘too’ pink is likely to be snubbed by men.

There’s one other area in which pink has an interesting effect, however – and one that’s far less likely to alienate males. It’s well known that a high concentration of color in foodstuffs will lead consumers to believe they’re tastier, or even identify a flavor that isn’t actually present.* And pink coloring is a particularly effective way of suggesting sweetness.

This may relate to the fact that it’s often used as a coloring in candies, but whatever the case, the association is powerful enough to substantially increase a food’s perceived sugariness or even depth of flavor. Pink sprinkles or toppings will add oomph to vanilla ice cream, and pink marshmallows are often assumed to be sweeter than white ones (they aren’t).

Although in these health-conscious times sweet, sugary foods have lost much of their popularity, the marketing of certain products is still likely to benefit from a little pink-appeal: feel-good desserts, ice creams, shakes and certainly artificial sweeteners. It’s also a color that could be used to make sugar-free, healthier foods seem more enticing to kids – as long as Mom and Dad are able to see through the ruse themselves.

Green

Occurring naturally as a sign of plant growth and renewal, green is one of those colors that’s universally seen as positive, fresh and fertile. It’s also a color that, once again, produces noticeable physical effects. it’s the easiest color for the eye to assimilate and therefore one of the most relaxing; it induces feelings of calm and restfulness, and can even improve vision. In short, it’s a very positive color indeed.

This emphasis on nature, freshness and renewal means that it’s commonly used to emphasize the cleansing, ‘regenerative’ aspect of household items such as bleaches, detergents, air fresheners. But if you notice a certain irony in this, well-spotted, because green, of course, has steadily evolved into the symbol of all that’s ecologically aware. Which isn’t a label that applies to most cleaning products.

The widespread acceptance of ‘green’ in its current sense is actually a fairly recent phenomenon*, but with increasing focus on ecological issues it’s extremely powerful and will only gain in strength. So much so, in fact, that real care needs to be taken now that use of green doesn’t suggest a product is all-natural, organic or additive-free if it isn’t. Congruity in advertising – or the notion that what’s implied about a product should be supported by its reality – is one of the most vital aspects of marketing. Get this wrong, and there’s no consumer forgiveness.

Yet despite green requiring caution in advertising, its current associations have equally led to opportunities for more refined targeting. Wholesome, healthy food items are likely to be quickly identified as such through predominant use of green, and the same can be said for products or services associated with any type of healing, spirituality, or personal growth: yoga, slimming programs, alternative medicines.

Different greens, different meanings

Green is a symbolically complex color, and particular shades transmit subtly different messages. Darker greens – the classic color of bank-notes and bills – have long held an association with finance. The added implication of growth and fertility therefore makes green a good choice for promotion of many financial products, particularly saving schemes, pensions and insurance plans.

Lime greens, which emerged as popular trend color in the ’90s, denote an especially vibrant freshness due to their close relationship to effervescent yellows. As such, they make excellent keynote colors for fresh, healthy, energy-inducing products such as juices, tonics, vitamin supplements and energy drinks.

Finally, a further modern-day association with green stems from its use in traffic systems to signify ‘go’. This link with movement, forward motion and vehicles make it a potentially good choice for anything related to transport: carriers, train networks, buses. And for online advertising, try using green for buttons or links you’d particularly like clicked – you’re practically inviting a user to go ahead and do so.

Blue

Blue is by far the world’s most popular color. And as one that, like green, occurs in nature – the hue of skies, water and sea – it’s not surprising that it’s so well loved. With such universal associations and widespread appeal, blue is an important asset to any color theorist.

Unlike very warm colors, which provoke impulsive, passionate responses, blue is a cerebral color that’s commonly associated with clear thinking and intellect. For good reason, too, as its use in offices and workplaces has been shown to dramatically increase productivity and a sense of well-being. Perhaps more surprisingly, other studies indicate that blue can even improve physical prowess – weight-lifters typically perform better in blue surroundings. However, this is probably a secondary effect of its ability to sharpen concentration.

This association with clear thought and precision make blue a good choice for anything involving a high degree of complex manufacture, such as computing products, electronic goods or hi-tech appliances in general. Darker blues emphasize this association even further, and their widespread appeal among men provide a perfect keynote for high-end, precision-made items with a masculine focus – expensive cars, bespoke tailoring, luxury grooming products.

Given such a setting, it’s no real surprise either that blue emerges as a clear favorite in the corporate world. Its implication of steadiness and reason continue to make it an effective choice for much company branding, although its white collar associations can also suggest stuffiness and conservatism.

In its lighter, brighter shades, blue loses much of its cool aloofness and takes on happier, sparkling and spontaneous overtones. The pure and natural aspect of such blues convey a sense of cleanliness and freshness and are often used for cleaning products, detergents, deodorants and toothpastes.

Bright blue is also an obvious choice for the typical vacation. Evocative of cloudless skies and inviting pools or seas, it also gives a tantalizing taste of tranquility and relaxation by slowing down the metabolism and producing feelings of calm and well-being. A powerful message indeed, and one that makes blue an equally effective choice for health spas, beauty clinics and any other service where deep relaxation or therapy is a key selling point.

In fact, blue is such a flexible and well-liked color that it’s almost impossible to mis-use – with one major exception.

Foods, particularly meats, dairy products and staples such as pasta or rice, really don’t benefit from any kind of association with blue. To start with, that drop in metabolism will certainly reduce the appetite; but this doesn’t explain the fact that a blue/food combo can even induce feelings of nausea. (Try it. Add a little coloring to pasta, white sauce, or even better, light-fleshed meat such as pork or chicken. See how far you get before pushing your plate to one side).

It’s been suggested that we instinctively associate the color with something that’s rotten and unsafe to eat, but whatever the case, it’s not a great choice for marketing a ready-meal. And if you find yourself running low at your next dinner party, bring out the blue plates. There won’t be many requests for second helpings.

Yellow

Yellow is clearly vibrant, energetic and fun – it’s the color of sunshine, flame and fire and is closely associated with warmth, happiness and the positive energy such states create. It produces bodily responses that are perfectly in keeping with this reading, too; an instant feeling of well-being along with a noticeable boost to mental activity.

For this reason, it’s a color that effectively communicates the nature of products associated with vitality and stimulus, such as energy drinks, sports equipment, vitamin supplements or remedies. And as the perfect feel-good color, it’s a great choice too for promoting group leisure activities, clubs and social networks.

Visually, yellow has a high impact that’s hard to ignore, a fact reflected in its use for items such as sticky notes and highlighter inks. Since it demonstrably sharpens attention, too (back to the notes and highlighter pens!) it’s worth considering lighter yellows as a background for large amounts of text, especially copy that requires close attention such as tutorials, instructions, or rules and regulations.

Yellow does requires a certain amount of care, however. Very light yellows can often appear drab, especially on-screen, while brighter shades tend to become overpowering.

The yellow effect is an intense one, and its enervating qualities can quickly put people on edge. Yellow rooms make babies cry more, and they also provoke hot tempers and arguments. And finally, while it’s a color that can be used to market most products to women – from washing up gloves to expensive scents – men are far less likely to appreciate its use with expensive or luxury goods.

White

Pristine and pure, white appropriately signifies cleanliness, spiritual health and, of course, purity itself in most cultures. It’s considered a non-color to which nothing has been added, making it an ideal choice for products wanting to accentuate their unadulterated, un-tampered with goodness: no-frills items; reduced fat, low-sugar or no-additive foods; pure juices; skin-care products.

White is also the classic ‘clean’ color, providing the easiest way to add a sense of uncluttered spaciousness to print or screen graphics. Yet its association with cleanliness and hygiene (white clearly shows dirt so is commonly used in hospitals, for example) lends it a certain clinical quality that can deprive a marketing message of warmth or even context. For this reason, it’s best used with an accent color to combine the best of two worlds – the visual clarity of white and the emotional resonance of a carefully chosen highlight.

Remember, too, that on-screen, the combination of light-filled white with black text is fairly hard on the eye. Try choosing a tinted background for large quantities of copy (yellow is often a good choice, as mentioned above) or change the color of the text itself.

Black

Although in western culture the color black certainly holds several negative linguistic connotations (black magic, black market) it’s also very positively associated with authority, prestige and exclusivity (black tie event, black credit card, black mercedes).

A slightly confusing message, but in general, black can be used very effectively to denote cool sophistication and a powerful sense of extreme luxury or expense.

Pair this with the fact that visually, it’s a color that creates a real sense of depth while also focusing the attention more completely than white, and black makes an ideal backdrop for images of luxury goods or services such as high-end hotels. Men seem to respond particularly well to such a combination – perhaps because it’s also been shown that for guys, black is a color with marked erotic overtones (combine it with red and you’re onto a testerone-charged winner that’s bound to attract male attention!)

Black is also by far the most common text color; perfect in print, although on-screen the contrast with white can often seem harsh. A good tip is to consider using a very dark gray instead. And colored text against a black background is rarely a good idea except in small areas, as black backgrounds diminish readability and will quickly tire viewers.

Orange

With its combination of energetic reds and feel-good yellows, orange is a color that’s clearly suggestive of fun, warmth and pleasure. And like its constituents, orange exerts an invigorating effect by increasing oxygen to the brain and stimulating mental activity. It’s therefore an excellent choice for any product associated with energy and vigor, such as sporting equipment or services, adventure holidays, theme park rides, energy drinks.

(Think you’ve read something like this before? Well in fact, orange can impart very similar messages to red, but importantly, without its slightly aggressive edge.)

Of all the colors, orange is also the best at stimulating appetite. So good in fact, that you may notice a lot of it in the snack or candy shelves near a checkout. Strategic thinking, because the orange ability to generate sudden hunger pangs will often lead to impulse purchases.

Yet orange, particularly in its brighter shades, is also a color that’s perceived as lacking prestige. Perhaps this is because its high visibility means it’s a frequent factor in motel signs, fast food outlets and similar ‘low-frills’ businesses, but whatever the reasons, it’s a color that’s become associated with lower-budget options and shouldn’t be used extensively for products wanting to impart a high quality message. (The opposite also holds true, however, making it a very good choice to indicate value for money, savings and discounts).

Purple

Mysterious, alluring, and very definitely regal, purple is a relatively uncommon color in nature. In the ancient world, its scarcity meant that it was highly valued, and rare, expensive purple dyes were used exclusively by nobility.

This association with wealth and prestige remains to this day, making purple, especially in its darker shades, an excellent complement to luxury items.

In fact, the association with expense is so strong that it can even be used to add a touch of instant class to cheaper products. For example, a bus company using purple livery would almost certainly be perceived as more luxurious than one using orange. The risk here, though, is that the consumer’s perception of comparative price might also rise accordingly – even if fares are identical.

Purple secrets

Purple also has some interesting hidden talents. It’s been noted, for instance, that many women find it an extremely erotic color, making it the female equivalent of the guys’ libido-enhancing black.

In fact, purple turns out to be a very girly color indeed – far more so than pink, the usual suspect. It’s a definite hit amongst young and adolescent girls for example, with some studies claiming that almost 75% rate it their favorite color. So while men seem fairly neutral about purple, if you’re looking for a color that speaks directly to the ladies, this may well be the one to choose.

Brown

And what about the guys? Well if you tried to guess, chances are you’d get it right. Brown, along with blue, is consistently voted a favorite color by men. And why not? Solid, earthy, dependable; it might lack the zing of the brighter primaries, but it resonates with a sense of trustworthiness and dependability. And if that’s the kind of message you’re looking to add to your marketing strategy, brown is often the right color to convey it – especially of course, if the product’s aimed specifically at males.

An interesting off-shoot of all this earnestness is the fact that brown is often claimed to be a highly ‘believable’ color, too. In other words, it’s more likely to add credibility to an advertising message – an important factor if your communication makes claims that may seem extravagant.

Bear in mind though, that if used too extensively brown can also have a stodgy, dampening effect. And whatever message your marketing is ultimately trying to convey, its main purpose is to stimulate enough visual interest to attract and excite instant attention.

But even in this respect, brown turns out to be pretty dependable: it easily converts into lighter and darker shades without losing depth, and can also be mixed with more dynamic colors – reds, yellows, oranges for a much more upbeat feel. So use the color recommendations given here to spice up a brown accordingly.

Planning an ad for well-made, hard-wearing, yet sporty gear for guys? Brown combined with a hint of red should give just the right message.

FOOTNOTES

* While images are generally more noticeable than flat blocks of color, they are, of course, usually dominated by a particular color in order to enhance and support an overall layout.

* One example would be the use of white clothing to signify mourning in India and many parts of Asia. In this article I’m focusing on color in the context of western culture.

* Numerous studies have shown that higher levels of coloring in food or drinks leads to the belief that they are stronger in taste than identical items with less color. Assumptions regarding color-taste correlation can even cause errors when identifying flavor; for example, a cherry-flavored drink colored purple may well be identified as grape.

* The color green has long been a symbol of ecologically motivated movements, but it’s only in recent years that this meaning has become mainstream through widespread media emphasis on global warming and other ecological issues.

* Oddly enough, red in this context don’t seem to provoke a ‘stop’ response and will also work well for buttons, particularly if a quick decision is required. Green, however, will always be perceived as a less risky click.
