The Super Bowl sets the ultimate stage for brands to shine. From Super Bowl LIVE to VIP events to the Super Bowl Experience, festivities surrounding the big game is every marketer’s dream. Not too many events can compare to the Super Bowl when it comes to reaching a massive fan base in an insanely energizing atmosphere. And brands will stop at nothing to create immersive and buzz-worthy fan experiences. Here, Event Marketer gives us an overview of the most memorable and most talked about brand experiences from Super Bowl 53.
Experiential marketing provides brands exceptional results, from creating awareness to generating sales. However, very few brands understand how to prove the success of their campaigns. Experiential marketing is made up of many moving parts. It’s not as cut and dry as other marketing mediums, making measurement difficult and overwhelming. But it may not be as difficult as you think. Several brands have successfully measured event ROI with “data ecosystems.” As this article points out, “the world’s most progressive brands all have one thing in common: they create data ecosystems — a suite of data measurement tools that provide them with personalized, real-time insights at various touchpoints in the XM lifecycle.” Read on to learn more about data ecosystems and how you can apply this practice in your next campaign.
