About the book:
The immersive brand experience is revolutionizing brand engagement. Experiential Marketing, second edition, cuts through the jargon with clear practical guidelines on how to magnify marketing strategies to a powerful new level. This book emphasizes that experiential marketing is not just about creating a live event. A unique, immersive experience allows businesses to generate a surge of brand engagement, which is amplified immediately by a niche target of consumers through live content sharing and social media streams.

"The framework for approaching brainstorming is great.”
Johnny Ng, Burberry
"We were v happy with the end result and I know you all worked extremely hard on it.’’
Ben Etheridge, CHI & Partners
"The experiential activity for our show was deemed a huge success, its an area of marketing that we have not traditionally got involved in but on this occasion, the interactive nature of experiential came into its own and helped communicate our message in a way no other medium could. Electrify were a fantastic partner from start to finish. Initially they helped us to bring the concept of the roadshow to life, and then took control of every stage, from planning and implementation through to post campaign analysis and feedback. I look forward to working with them again in future."
Paul Ridsdale, ITV Entertainment
"Everyone thought the experience stand looked fantastic. We are impressed by the initial results and it was noted internally that we should have done this type of thing a while ago, so great to see it’s finally happened. Great work!"
Eva Chanter, Amazon

BETTER CREATIVE METHODOLOGY
A Creative Methodology
The BETTER creative methodology is a journey that takes form as a 3 part workshop or a brainstorm series. The process includes in-depth target audience research, and explores how to forge a deeper emotional connection with your customer through sensory immersion, thus defining your brands multi-sensory 'palette'. The big idea which will sit centrally, is designed to authentically express the brand's personality through a two-way interaction that is participatory, relevant and interactive. The final stages explore how the central concept can be effectively integrated into broader communications and social media for maximum reach, creating a content story, and triggering word of mouth through tailored mechanics.
The creative process covers the following stages:
BRAND PERSONALITY
EMOTIONAL CONNECTION
TARGET AUDIENCE
TWO WAY INTERACTION
EXPONENTIAL ELEMENTS
REACH
IDEA FORMAT
Topline Idea Presentation
'IDEA' forms the structure for a simple conceptual deck with 4 components; ILLUSTRATION & INSPIRATION, DETAILS, EVALUATION ESTIMATES, and APPROXIMATE BUDGET. Perfect for exploring an initial conceptual direction, without working out all the finer nuts and bolts.
