Social media ads, hybrid experiences, and emotional connections play vital roles in the future of marketing.

Marketing of the future emphasizes interacting with consumers where they are – mostly on their phones and utilizing cutting-edge technologies.

Panache Middle East – the top brand activation agency based in UAE and KSA – highlights key strategies and technologies that will become the marketing of the future and are part of the brand activation mechanics we offer to clients. 

Conversational Marketing

Everybody is on their phone and carries it everywhere, too. So, one of the most convenient ways of marketing is through messaging or other apps. As the leading brand activation agency in the UAE, the benefit of conversational marketing is that it allows for direct consumer contact, resulting in feedback and data collected from interactions that can generate sales. Various channels for conversational marketing are Telegram, WhatsApp, or even having a bot on your website to greet visitors. Most beauty brands, especially skincare brands, make it their goal to personally make a regimen for their existing and potential clients using this type of marketing. Aside from making a regimen for free through your website, you can choose a straightforward way, such as newsletters or communications from loyalty programs, to get a conversational marketing plan off the ground and gauge customer reaction. If it is successful, you can test the waters with additional methods and distribution channels, such as social media.

Social Media Optimization

If people are not texting on their phones, they are – most of the time – scrolling their social media accounts.  But just because everybody scrolls social media – searching and engaging – does not mean they see you online. Marketing teams of the biggest brands in UAE and KSA consider us the best brand activation company in Dubai to partner with because of our professional teams, especially for SEO. When dealing with social media marketing, optimizing your social media content is a must. It needs to be appealing, right up the alley of your target audience, trendy, and informational. We create content and provide case studies for your brand to understand the trends of the online world. At a time when everything is at the tip of everyone’s fingers, social media is now the heartbeat of brand marketing and promotion. It builds communities and connects your brand to your current and potential customers, and effectively showcases your culture as a brand.

Emotional Marketing

Yes, we are in such a robotic world now that emotionally interacting with one another becomes challenging. But, as human beings, emotional connection drives us to trust brands. Let’s be honest ads obstruct consumer experiences. Have you tried listening to your favorite songs on youtube, and suddenly ads of brands just pop up in the middle of your music trip? And we are sure that you skipped the youtube survey or did not even bother to look at the ads when it interrupted you. So, if you are a brand trying to connect with your market, disturbing their experience is not the best way to approach them. Consumers have found ways to filter ads over time, and you do not want that. So, the best angle to reach your audience is through experiences tailored to them.  And we are here to provide that! We are not just a brand activation agency that produces a one-time event for you. We are an expert in personalizing experiences that showcase your brand’s core values which will increase trustworthiness. And building trust with your audience is vital as it creates receptiveness, loyalty, and customer advocacy and referral.

Hybrid Experiences

After the global pandemic, the rise of hybrid experiences become a hit for brand promotion. You should ensure you can blend offline and online and gather data digitally from your offline activations. At Panache Middle East, we have the tools and technological advancements to support you in digitally gathering data from your events. Since we deliver leads that result in sales for the biggest brands in the nation, we are the go-to brand activation agency in the UAE. Additionally, we help brands identify if their consumers like online experiences more than offline. We ensure that consistency in marketing is present so that there is no negative impact on increasing consumer reach. Our hybrid experience services offer an understanding that customers will likely feel more connected to your brand if they can easily search for a product on your website, locate the product’s in-store location, and make an in-person purchase that same day.

In summary, there are several ways to design an immersive experience that your audience will engage with, enjoy, and remember. And through these ways, you get to grab their attention and engrave your brand in their minds. Speaking to your audience – online or offline – establishes meaningful, long-lasting relationships and connections that bolster brand engagement, trust, and loyalty. And if you are hesitant about how to start, you can always connect with us, and we will be your brand activation agency that will bridge the gap between you and your market.
