10 Ways Experiential Marketing Can Benefit Your Company

Creating unique marketing experiences for your customers creates opportunities to generate branded content which can be shared to all social channels for the brand, and shared among consumers as social currency to ultimately increase the splash of your marketing activation.

2.) Provides consumers the opportunity to try before they buy
Experiential marketing is great because it can give consumers the opportunity to try your products or services before they buy. One great example I’ve seen in the past was Verizon. They setup an activation at a golf tournament which allowed consumers to try one of several phones available to make a free cellular call using their service.

3.) Experiential Marketing engages consumers through inbound and outbound marketing tactics.
Creating shock and awe with unique art, music, installations or experiences will definitely create a magnet to draw interested consumers. Once you have their attention, let them take part in your experience, sample your products and engage. Experiential Marketing combines elements of traditional and modern marketing efforts to craft unique experiences which in turn create memories that last for years to come.
4.) Experiential Marketing builds authentic interactions and excitement with consumers.
Putting the product in the consumer’s hands is always one of the best ways to get them to remember your product and generate brand loyalty. Engaging with consumers on a one-on-one interaction means they will spend a lot more time with your brand, and your product. Positive experiences mean positive memories associated with your company.

Sometimes great products, and thus brands are out there in the dark until a consumer can get their hands on it and interact with it. This can be one of the best ways to learn about how to improve your product.

Using a variety of approaches to plug upcoming events, such as posting images from previous years, sharing videos that show exclusive content like interviews and behind the scenes footage. Through generating multiple content types you will avoid making followers feel as though you’re sharing the same message over and over.
