THINKING OF A MARKETING COLLABORATION WITH ANOTHER BRAND?
Collaborating and partnering with others can be a great way to grow your brand, enhance your entrepreneurial journey and also get a learning experience that you probably wouldn’t get on your own!
Further to the article: ‘Event Marketers: Brand Collaboration’, I’ve noticed that a number of brands in similar industries are doing similar marketing collaborations.
For example, a number of credit cards and other financial services companies are offering similar add-ons to entice customers to sign-up. E.g., membership to streaming platforms.
Do these add-ons get people to sign up? Does this get customers? Does this add value to the customer or the brands? If a lot of brands are offering the same add-ons, does it lose value?
As an event marketer, trying to build your event brand:
- do you partner with other brands to give add-ons to your audience?
- How do you choose which brands to partner with?
I don’t think there is any definitive answer that can be given about whether 2 brands should partner and collaborate or not. Whether you’re going to partner with and collaborate with another corporate brand or an individual influencer, there are some questions that you can think about beforehand, apart from the financial cost:
- What is your brand’s USP?
- What is it that your audience value about your brand?
- What add-ons (e.g., value added services) would your audience appreciate and get value from?
- What are other brands in your industry offering to their customers? Are the add-ons fairly similar? Can you offer something different?
- Do you have feedback from your audience about what add-ons they would like?
- What is the USP of the partner brand?
- Who are the audience of the partner brand and what geographical area do they cover?
- What social proof does the partner brand have?
- Does the partner brand add value to your audience?
- Will the potential partner brand grow your audience?
- What audience and, importantly, engagement does the partner brand have on their social media?
- Who else does the partner brand collaborate with (any social proof?) and does this compete with your brand?
- Will the partner brand give you feedback on your marketing and are they open to receiving feedback? This can be important as your audience may not always give feedback on what you’re doing well or not so well.
You can probably think of some more questions.

GETTING REPEAT ATTENDANCE AT YOUR EVENTS
Have you ever planned an event, poured your heart and soul into it, only to wonder whether your loyal attendees will return for the next one?
As event marketers, you understand the importance of not only attracting new participants but also ensuring repeat attendance.
Imagine: you're hosting your annual conference, and amidst the buzz of excitement and anticipation, you spot familiar faces eagerly awaiting the kickoff. These are your repeat attendees, the backbone of your event brand, seeking assurance that their investment of time and money will yield at least equal, if not greater value than before.
Consider devoted fans of a popular music festival. They eagerly awaits its announcement each year, marking their calendars with the dates. Their loyalty stems not only from the love of music but also from the consistent quality of the event. Each year, they experience new performances, innovative attractions, and seamless organization. It's this reliability that keeps them coming back, confident that their ticket purchase will be rewarded with unforgettable memories and new discoveries.
Likewise, event marketers must recognize the power of consistency in delivering value to their audience.
EVENT MARKETING: IDEAS AND STRATEGIES is your guide to crafting an event marketing strategy that will help you thrive and take your events and brand much further than before:
