Experiential marketing is one of the most exciting marketing areas. It's a way to engage consumers with a product, allowing them to “experience” it, utilising as many senses as possible. Currently, consumers are skeptical of the “traditional advertising” methods, such as radio and TV, preferring to experience the product or service first-hand, in the context of how they would use the product in their everyday lives.
