Proving Experiential Marketing Events Are A Powerful Tool for Any Brand

How many events have you attended? Probably a lot; but how many of these events were focused on YOU as a target audience? Probably very few. This created a disconnect whether you realized it or not. The result? The brand or the company lost an extremely valuable opportunity: to gain a regular or potential user.

It has been proven that face-to-face interactions are much more effective in establishing emotional connections than any other type of digital action. Traditionally, marketing events were organized when there was something exceptional to celebrate or to give more voice to a brand, but it was something that not all companies could afford.

Nowadays, however, almost any brand has at its disposal a large number of resources to use experiential marketing events as a communication tool. In fact, this is an increasingly common practice, and these events have already become essential in the communication strategies of thousands of companies!

Using XM events as communication tools can be the key to growing your brand, do you want to know why? Let’s dive into the details!

The Key to Growing Your Brand

Brands decide to hold experiential events for several reasons. Small businesses seek to gain visibility and notoriety. Established brands seek face-to-face interaction at a festival or sporting event, for example.

Regardless of whether the brand is large or small, there are three universal reasons to take advantage of this marketing strategy:

We understand that your event might not be the first point of contact of your brand with your audience. However, it can be the most impactful and memorable moment.

Events focused on product demonstrations or sampling, for example, are a very powerful tool to create personal relationships and demonstrate the advantages of a product or service. You can have a lot of fun with this using one of our sampling vehicles! They can be informative, interactive, immersive… all in order to catch your lead and turn it into a sales qualified lead or directly into a sales opportunity.
