The Impact of Activation Marketing on Campaign Marketing.

Activation marketing allows brands to add value for their customers and build brand loyalty for greater conversions, larger lists and brand awareness.

The strategy of activation for a campaign starts with the development of goal and objective specificity, extensive research to know who your target is, what they want and need.

Creating a Sense of Urgency

Activation marketing helps you connect with customers who have intentions to buy but haven’t yet done so. You can try free samples, contests, product or store promotions – anything that gets people to take notice will do.

Limited time discounts, and stock reductions are another effective means of making the customers feel like they have limited time, and to feel special and special.

Owned media platforms and first-party data should be tapped to get the most out of activation marketing campaigns. Websites, blogs, and email newsletters are all great sources for easily accessed and shared content while owned media can also be used for quizzes, polls, or live webinars to get your audience engaged.

Creating an Online Community

Activation marketing involves designing targeted experiences for the target customer and establish long-term trusting relationships. A personalized method is the key to success; feedback loops should be triggered to collect customer data.

Engagement can be created over time by interacting with your audience on social media communities, forums, or other community-based websites. To make your campaign get participation using branded hashtags and post on a regular basis with user generated content for maximum exposure.
