COPENHAGEN, DENMARK--(Marketwire - December 8, 2009) - Bark Group Inc. ("Bark") (OTCBB: [ BKPG ]), an award-winning, multi-national European advertising company, is pleased to announce its partnership with Mindmetic, a brain research company that develops neuromarketing research methods.

Mindmetic is developing neuromarketing research technology that can interpret and decode people's emotional responses when they are presented with different marketing messages. Bark plans to leverage this cutting-edge technology to enhance the effectiveness of its marketing campaigns and develop advertisements that are more focused on the brain's response, enabling it to craft messages that elicit both conscious and subconscious positive consumer reactions.

"As marketers, we know that emotions rule thoughts, and thoughts rule consumer behaviour," says Bark CEO Anders Hageskov. "By using Mindmetic's new neuromarketing technology, we will be able to better understand consumer reactions and create messages that result in the desired consumer response."

Neuromarketing techniques are used to study consumers' sensorimotor, cognitive, and affective response to marketing stimuli. Among other measurements such as tracing eye movements and monitoring body temperature, Mindmetic uses electroencephalography (EEG) to measure activity in the cortical region of the brain to learn why consumers make the decisions they do, and determine what part of the brain is telling them to do it. The information can be used to determine what colours, sounds and words get certain reactions in the minds of consumers, giving marketers a strategic edge when designing campaigns.

Mindmetic is revolutionizing market research by revealing true emotional reactions in consumers. The company develops hardware and software for neuromarketing research, and is among the leading companies in the world within its industry. Bark has participated in development of Mindmetic's products and utilizes its science-based technique for gauging audience response to produce more effective advertising campaigns.
