Brand activation is a brilliant way of developing your brand’s reputation, building popularity and giving your customers a true sense of what you and your company is all about, allowing them to feel more connected on a personal level to you and what you’re doing.
If you want to create a positive perception of you as a brand, this is one of the best ways of doing so, whether you do it through experiential events, sponsorships, retail marketing in your store or even product samplings. You have to be able to reach new customers in order to change the way your brand is viewed and in order to help create that emotional connection.
Successful marketing events are a brilliant way of bringing you to the forefront of people’s minds and making them remember positive emotional responses that they had. That’s when they start thinking of you as a business and start buying your products!
Get to know your customer
You need to know your target market for your campaigns to be successful. Be creative, think outside the box, do whatever you can to speak to people’s passions and interests.
Timing
Gain fans by running your campaigns at the right time and in the right place to help motivate people to engage with you and your brand.
Strategies
Experiential events can really help to draw consumers in and make your brand seem like the new ‘in thing’. You want them to believe in you and only you above all your competitors.
Live marketing events are used by global brands to help position them in people’s minds. Offer a chance to try out a product, ask them questions, get them participating, encourage social sharing.
Promotional marketing helps to raise more awareness of your brand and your goods and services to create a loyal fan base and increase your profit margins. Consider giveaways, discounts, loyalty programmes, point of sale displays and so on.
Good in-store retail marketing will help people choose your brand over another inside a shop. Review your designs, displays and launch experiences – is there more you could be doing?
Never underestimate the power of brand activations to help grow your company and encourage people to come to you above your competition. Don’t think of these strategies as a way of increasing sales. Instead, think of them as the perfect tool for generating awareness and increasing visibility of your brand.
