The second edition of exchange4media Red Carpet Experiential Marketing Awards has received thunderous response from the events and experiential agencies and now the deadline has been extended to June 30, 2023.
Experiential marketing, as we know, is continuing to rise because marketers agree that it gives a clutter-breaking opportunity to interact with customers, acquire their loyalty, and even build positive associations.
The Red Carpet Experiential Marketing Summit & Awards is an initiative to recognise and reward creativity, innovation, and effectiveness in the event and MICE industries. These awards have developed to become the industry's most desired and recognisable prizes, a true sign of great success and distinction in the fields of experiential marketing, event industry, weddings, and MICE.
Experiential Marketing, in terms of brands, unlocks doors that were previously closed to marketers. While digital media such as videos and email marketing allow marketers to help build a brand voice, the voice is always communicating to, rather than with, the consumer. Experiential marketing brings that voice to life, resulting in a more complete, interactive, and compelling brand perception.
