What We Will See in New Orleans For SB LIX?

More branding. 

More Experiences and Events in New Orleans to support the advertisers' branding and advertising.

Also called Experiential Events which are a type of event or events designed to create a memorable and interactive experience for attendees. 

I have found that unlike traditional events where the focus may be solely on delivering information or entertainment, experiential events prioritize creating immersive experiences that resonate with attendees.

Under "Promotion" in my 9P's of Marketing is "
Experiences and Events."

One of the eight elements or parts or components under Promotion is Experiences and Events.

More engagement. Not just a $8 Million spot which doesn't include creative, production or celebrity costs.

But Marketing is not only advertising. Marketing is not only PR, they are just two of the eight components under Promotion with my 9P's. 

My 9P's of Marketing do include include these important concepts, practices and components:

  • Planning and Research. From the founder of Intuit, Scott Cook, said: " A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is -- (maybe from Marketing Research never was is my comment) it is what consumers (“People” in the 9P’s) tell each other it is.
  • People (Segmentation and Targeting)
    • In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users
  • Product and Services
  • Place (Distribution)
  • Price or Pricing 
  • Promotion
    • There are eight (8) major, strategic components or communication elements which are personal and non-personal communication activities. 
    • The activities that communicate the merits of the overall product include:
      • Personal Selling/ Sales Force: Sales persons
        • Listen more than you talk. People who listen more, learn more, plus helps you position your service/product/solution or offering. 
      • Advertising: 
      • Like Super Bowl advertising in February for Super Bowl XIX on FOX.
        You may not know that Google, Facebook and Amazon attract 46 cents of every dollar spent by advertisers. In fact, Google and Facebook are the dominant digital advertising market vendors in the US, accounting for a combined 48.4% of total digital ad spending. Think about this expression "It is only creative if the product or service sells." I wanted to add "It is only good media spending if it sells."
      • Sales Promotion
      • Collateral Materials
      • Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
      • Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
      • Events and Experiences
      • Public Relations/PR
    • With inflation at increasing higher levels, we are seeing brick and mortar retailers needing physical traffic to survive. Gas prices at record levels are keeping customers from driving more. One stop shopping is more important than ever. 
  • Partners/Alliances: Most times Marketers can’t create customer value and build customer relationships only by themselves. They work closely with partners and alliances outside the firm, and with other company departments (inside partners).   

Partnering with brands outside their sector will open up added sales, new area or new “People.”

Partnerships and teams that feel a connection to the work and the purpose are going to speak far more passionately together and to your or their “people,” and with far more influence.

A partnership; the joint relationships, partnerships and strategic alliances: The relationship existing between two parties; a relationship resembling a legal partnership and usually involving close cooperation between parties having specific and joint rights and responsibilities as a common enterprise. Usually plural or “Partners,” not Partner.

                Ensure that there is excellent planned and natural alignment of internal and                            external agencies/partnerships/alliances around common goals and purposes.                       
They should be moving toward shared goals or goals. 

  • Presentation:
    • The act or acts of strategically presenting any of the different 9P’s© and/or components to your customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, partners, and/or others. 

      Presentation aspects may be signs, symbols or images that represent something; a descriptive or persuasive account (as a sales person of the product or service). Something set forth for the attention of mind of your targets ("People") and media audiences.

  • Passion
