Have you ever caught yourself humming the theme song to a TV show, ad or even just a new song? Plenty of brands have figured this out and are using music in their marketing campaigns for better customer retention solutions.

But there are still companies who aren’t sure whether implementing music in their brand strategy is the right choice for them. To aid you in your decision, take a look at the below infographic that highlights the benefits of music on the brain. In turn this information gives you an insight into what your customers are getting from the companies who use music in their customer retention strategy, like:

-      [Nike](https://blog.tunedglobal.com/connect-customers-building-brand-music)
-      [Jeep](https://blog.tunedglobal.com/jeeps-superbowl-ad-engage-millennials)
-      [Marriott Hotel](https://blog.tunedglobal.com/hotels-music-drive-loyalty-younger-hipper-crowd)
-      [M&M](https://blog.tunedglobal.com/mm-turns-75-pop-artists-aloe-blacc-zedd-engage-millennials)
-      [McDonalds](https://blog.tunedglobal.com/mcdonalds-music-in-advertising-brand)

If you have heard of the above companies, it’s probably because they are doing their marketing the right way. By using music in your campaigns, you are providing your brand with a voice, and are on the way to an improved customer retention strategy.
