Brand experience
+ The interaction a customer has with the various touchpoints in the process of purchasing and using a brand or product
+ Often this process is depicted in a linear fashion
Awareness Interest Desire Purchase Use Repurchase
#IMCchamps
6
Brand experience
+ The brand experience cycle is more accurately a loop, with satisfaction leading customers back to repurchase
#IMCchamps
7
Brand experience
+ Increasingly, consumers are seeking and sharing information at every stage of the brand experience.
#IMCchamps

Brand actions:
+ Are often outside or in addition to the traditional purchase cycle touchpoints
+ Engage people physically; interact with people, not just communicate at them
+ Demonstrate the simple idea behind the brand
+ Take experience further; turn a touchpoint into a marketing/sharing opportunity
+ Are not created simply to drive awareness
#IMCchamps

Why now?
+ Often difficult to differentiate through product features or even customer experience
+ A way of breaking through the Marcom noise
+ Create impressions worth remembering, sharing
+ Circumvent consumer suspicion of image/communication-based marketing
+ New digital technologies/innovations enable surprising and delightful interactions
+ Cost/impact dynamic changing because of sharing value

The best brand actions:
+ Make the brand idea tangible
+ Simplify people’s experience
+ Expand the brand’s frame of reference
+ Stand out
+ Are “share-worthy”
