Consumer Behaviour and Experiential Marketing



“People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya Angelou, Poet & Philosopher


Welcome to my blog where I am going to be discussing experiential marketing and consumer behaviour. I will be sharing my personal experiences and other examples that I come across. The quote I stated at the start of my blog is so true and this is what companies and organisations need to think about when marketing their ideas.

Soloman (2014, pg.33) defines Consumer Behaviour as the “study of the processes involved when individuals or groups select, purchase, use or dispose of products, services, ideas or experiences to satisfy needs and desires.” We are seeing that a lot more companies are coming away from the traditional method of marketing (for example leaflets and posters) and moving more towards the idea of experiential marketing and creating an experience that will stay with the consumer, as they want more than just satisfaction from the product or service.

We are seeing a shift from traditional marketing to experiential marketing as companies are seeing that it is not all about that ‘purchase moment’ for a consumer. It is actually an ongoing process from the moment the consumer thinks about that product or service, so they need to remember the consumption process; pre-purchase issues, purchase issues and post-purchase issues, engaging the customer throughout.
