espacio mental
Spanish to English
Marketing
brainwashing people to make them buy more
El medio principal para conseguir este objetivo es captar el ***espacio mental*** de los clientes actuales y potenciales de XXX (the company name). Es decir, lograr que cuando alguien piense en productos de estética para el uso diario (mercado masivo) piense de forma inconsciente en alguna marca del paraguas XXX.
I am going mad here. This company is trying to brainwash its customers - I suppose they all do really - but how can I say espacio mental without implying that they ARE brainwashing these poor people?! 'Mental space' does not sound very natural or nice to me!
This is a marketing text about hair-care products. However, the company also produces other beauty products - sun protecion skincare etc.
MTIA!

capture the mental domain
These are imperialist, martial metaphors but it's not your fault. Haven't you ever heard that business is a dog-eat-dog world?

This isn\'t written for clients, it\'s written for fellow businessmen who share the author\'s contempt for the lowly consumer (how to brainwash them today?).

And "captar el espacio mental" doesn't? Are we supposed to take strking texts and turn them into boring, generally acceptable pablum?

: while a nice literal translation, if you said this to fellow businessmen, you'd get blank stares.

1) Presumably they would not be reading the sentence out of context; 2) The whole text is very psychological so it's not exactly conversational; 3) It doesn't sound any stranger than any of the other suggestions.
