    The Ecosystem of Entertainment Marketing

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 26, 2019 5:51


      Entertainment Marketing is an ecosystem for brands : a mix of event marketing and digital marketing. With entertainment as it's fuel. Resulting in relevant data and extreme customer delight.  My point is that brands should be a part of the entertainment on social media and not interrupt people. And if we talk about creating entertainment : event managers are the kings and queens of entertainment. Event Managers are the best at creating entertainment via live events. But I think event managers should remarket themselves and should create entertaining content for brands on digital media (social media, website, emailmarketing, etc).  We, event managers, are way too shy. We should create and promote the concept of Entertainment Marketing. And help brands to stop interrupting people in their precious moments of free time with spammy ads.

    Event Marketing & Event Managers need a total REBRANDING

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 9, 2018 9:05


    Eventprofs do not market themselves in the right way. It's a real problem of image. A problem of reputation. Especially when you talk about our business to CMO's and CEO's of corporate brands. They see us too often as party planners. Not as strategic partners for their brands. And this needs to change.  Event Marketing is an underestimated marketingtool. We need to rebrand the complete industry of MICE and event marketing. We are underestimated, and undervalued, because we do not market ourselves in the right way. My rant, is about the fact that we as event managers all over the world should be more proud of our business. More proud and loud about the value we bring to brands to create brand experiences. We should show more guts and creativity during our own events and also when posting on social media.  Don't let the digital agencies have all the fun. Let's stick together, and let's make event marketing great again.
